Happy Birthday Dallin!

Let me introduce you to my brother Dallin. He doesn't get mentioned very often on my blog (a fact that he had to point out, that is once he realized I had a blog...).

23 years ago my baby brother was born into the world, and I would never again enjoy being an only child. In fact, I would never remember being an only child. Dallin has always been a part of my life. Many of you know him, but I would like to tell you about the Dallin I know.

When we were younger he loved: Power Rangers, hockey, Mighty Ducks, pretending to be a tap dancer in Mom's high heels, climbing (trees, walls, bookshelves, etc), video games, dancing and music, and his big sister. ;)

As he got older he had many "phases." There was the: skater phase, BMXer, Cowboy, mechanic, Masonry, and military... am I forgetting any? Funny enough, a little bit from each of these stuck and now you have one interesting person...

He has wanted to be many things: hockey player, drummer, tap dancer, policeman, truck driver, fireman... the list goes on.

He loves his sisters (of course, he wouldn't be the same without us), his parents, his beautiful wife, his friends, and his PS3.

He lives his life passionately. Dallin is an all or nothing type of person and is so passionate about everything that it is sometimes exhausting to be around him. He loves being an uncle and my kids love him.

Dallin and I are like night and day, I don't think you could possibly be more opposite than we are, but I love him. He is my brother and we've shared so many things together, that he has helped shape me into the person I am today.
