Happy Birthday Taylor!

At Farmington Pond with Grandma Lola

With cousins Danielle & Jordan

The baby boy turns 19 today so I thought I would just share a little Taylor with y'all.  He has always had his own sense of style.  Even when he was small he would wear a hat as he said it gave him confidence.  Now he just has a flowing mane of hair to do the same.  He was a darling baby and toddler.  He loved to sing and dance to the Jungle Book and could do a killer dinosaur impersonation.  He was on that dinosaur kick for a LONG time.  He plays guitar and bass.  He is funny.  And smart.  And did I mention funny in a sarcastic, dry sort of way.

In China with high school friends

On one of many trips to Washington DC

In some ways he's been like an only child so he's been dragged around with us and has been (for the most part) a good sport about the travel.  We kept reminding him that someday he would be grateful for those opportunities.

He tried snowboarding but ended up going back to skiing.

He started as a guitarist at The School of Rock but they made him step out of his comfort zone and do vocals as well.  He was awesome!

In Branson with dad

We were sure he would think these were hilarious.  Not so much.  This was the one time he wore them.

Taylor worked very hard on his Eagle project and did a great job with the help of friends and family.  We are so proud of him!

When you travel with him you always get second looks, especially if he's got his guitar because people think he's a rock star.  It happens doubly if both Taylor AND Nic are together.

His trip to Alabama at Christmas

He went through a period of photos that had "this" pose

His awesome grandparents are taking him to lunch for his birthday.  They already had a party for him and cousin Eryn (they always get to share the April birthdays) at their house on Sunday.

He's a cute, cute kid and we're sad to not be with him on his special day but are sending love to Utah!  Happy Birthday Taylor!
