April Fools Birthday

April Fool's day is a very special day in our family. anyone who finds out that April Fools day is Harry's birthday always laugh, and their laughter soon turns to disbelief when I tell them that I planned it that way. That's right! April Fools day was wide open when I chose to have my c-section, who wants their kid born on April Fools day??? I DO! Do you know why?? Well little Harry gets to share this very special Birthday with his very special Grandpa Passey. Today Harry turned 2 and my dad turned 60! Geez. I can't believe how quickly my men are growing up. My mom planned a surprise party for my dad. We were all set to go. Tuesday my Dad told my mom that all he wanted for his birthday was to make a surprise visit to Salt Lake to see us. Mom quickly had to tell a lie and say that we would not be in town. The party was on. I had been running around like a crazy person all day and when we arrived in logan around 5:30 I was getting frantic. I love, love, love surprises! Seeing how I have never been apart of a surprise but always love the idea I was so thrilled and trying to make sure that everything went according to plan. Acting more like a Natzi by the second I was directing people all over the place. Everyone parked far away, the Balloons brought by Nate were flying High, the food prepared by Megan and Shawn was going perfectly. We sent Jack out to the store to get a few more supplies. Then we realized there was no rice which is a key part of the meal, so we called Jack (who was still in town). Jack decided to stop at Lee's and as luck would have it just as he is walking in my parents (my mom was keeping my dad occupied while we prepared the party) were walking out. AHHH!!! When I got this news from Jack over the phone I was crushed and in total disbelief. Luckily it still was a surprise because he didn't know there was a party he just thought it was us coming to surprise him. All in all a great success.

The Surprise

The Birthday Boys: Bryce and Harrison Bryce
You can guess who Harry's favorite person in the world is.

I love my dad, best dad ever.

The gathering.
Me retelling the hilarious coincidence of Jack being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Out of all the stores in all the world... He walked into mine" (please tell me someone gets my humor :)

Treasured Moments

Making the Gyoza, Dad's favorite dish

Mom, Leticia, and sweet Baby Jane

I need to write a few things about Harry:

-Right now he wants to read books all the time, on average I read to him 40 times a day (not and exaggeration).

-He is trying to say everything.

-He never fails to fold his arms during a prayer. He also never fails to say "Dank You Mommy".

-He is Everett's shadow, they play really well right now and hardly fight (I know that it will only last for two seconds but I am enjoying those two seconds :)).

- The other day he was frustrated that Everett didn't want to play because Everett wanted to watch a movie, so Harry decided to lick his face, awesome.

- He has stopped taking naps on his own so I lay with him everyday and he immediately falls asleep. I love the time with him.

-He asks for "Treats" all the time

He is a wonderful little boy and we are eating up every moment with him.

The sweetest things in Life are hard but boy are they worth it and handsome too.

Karter with Grandpa, adorable.

Dad's Birthday gift.....Funny I got him the same Jacket in Blue. awesome. Really? How many coincidences can you have in a day?

Everett is a great helper....No really he opened every gift, Harry didn't mind.

A great day here at the Passey residence. Good food, good company, and really good looking Birthday Boys, it really doesn't get better than that! Happy Birthday Harry and Dad!
