Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Last week we had a Birthday party for Grandpa Connie. He turned 81! We went to Dad and Mom's house and had a BBQ . It was fun and I really think Grandpa enjoyed being with all his Grandkids. 
Here is a few things about my Grandpa:
1. He is an expert when it comes to horses. He has Bred them, raised them, trained them and enjoyed them much of his 81 years.
2. He loves my Grandma a lot, and takes care of her daily. A few weeks ago when we went to their house to see them, he was getting her dinner and making sure she took her medication. It just showed me how much her really does love her. 
3. He was recently inducted into the Utah Cutting Horse Association Hall of Fame. I thought that was pretty cool!
4. He calls his Sister every morning at 7:00 to check on her. 
5. He enjoys and loves my children. I really see his eyes light up when we stop by his home. He likes to know what they have been doing and how Santa Clara is. 
I love my Grandpa and am thankful for his hard work and dedication to his Family.
