Happy Birthday Casey

Casey turned the big 31 on Monday. Joanne watched Olivia on Saturday so me and Casey could go on a hot date, we went to dinner then shopping and talked about Olivia the whole time, I don't know if you would really call that hot, but it was fun to get away for a little while. Sunday we had cake and ice cream at Grandpa and Grandma Nelsons. On Monday I asked Casey what he wanted to have for his b-day dinner I told him I would make anything and do you know what he wanted........BREAKFAST! Those of you that know me know that I hate breakfast for dinner I always have but that's what he wanted so we had pancakes, eggs and toast. Since he turned 31 here are 31 reasons I love him..
1. Simple things make him happy like breakfast for dinner;)
2. He is a hard worker
3. He has perfect teeth, that may seem weird but I always look at peoples teeth and his are perfect. (It could have something to do with the fact at 31 years old he still wears his retainer to bed at night) nothing is a turn on like a grown man wearing a retainer :o)
4. He is giving, he would give anything to anybody if he felt like they needed it
5. He has an amazing testimony and has taught me so much
6. He honors his priesthood and has used it to bless our family many times
7. He has the patience of a saint, and being married to me you would have to, in the 6 years we have been together I have NEVER seen him loose his temper.
8. If ever there was a perfect Dad it would be Casey, he loves his little girl more than words typed on this computer can express.
9. He is so thoughtful and always doing the nicest things for me
10. He makes me laugh especially when he dances
11. He has the most beautiful hazel eyes
12. He is kind to everybody he meets
13. He is tender-hearted
14. The way he loves me unconditionally
15. His family, there is nothing like NFF (Nelson Family Fun!)
16. He is easy going and puts up with my not so easy going ways
17. He makes me feel safe all the time
18. He puts up with me and that is not always an easy thing to do, he has never said a mean or negative thing to me even when I am being a brat
19. He plays with Olivia and its the cutest thing, there in nothing more precious than watching Casey play dolls or read a book or let Olivia fix his hair
20. Every night he gets Olivia ready for bed and lets me "relax" for a few minutes even though he has worked all day long at the office, and he never complains
21. When Liv was a baby and got up every 2-3 hrs Casey would get up every other time with her, and that when we lived in Logan so he had to get up 5 am to go to work and didn't get home until 6 pm and still would feed her during the night without complaining
22. He does the laundry and dishes without being asked
23. Ever since we have been married he has always been the one that cleans the bathrooms
24. He is romantic, if I say that I like something he will remember what it was and for the next birthday or holiday he gets it for me, randomly he will leave little notes for me and Olivia telling us to have a good day and that he loves us
25. He is athletic, he love to golf, play basketball, snowboard, snowmobile and is good at everything he tries
26. He is willing to try anything and is outgoing
27. He is smart, in college he didn't have to study hard to get good grades he can read something once and is good to go (hopefully our kids get his brains)
28. He has the best personality, he has never met anybody that he hasn't gotten along with
29. He drives everywhere we go no matter how far away it is, it works out perfectly for me because I hate to drive
30. I love the way he loves me and Olivia
31. He is the love of my life!
Happy Birthday Casey you are the best and I love you!! BPWP ;)
