Papi, Papa Bear, Daddy.

Words cannot express my love and gratitude for my Dad. He is such an amazing guy, he is a very hard worker and has [tried] to teach me to be as well! (It depends on the day, okay!? ;). He always makes everyone laugh, he's a jokester! Especially when I'm upset, he's loves to make me laugh. Honestly, that makes me more mad because I wanted to stay mad! haha. He is a worthy priesthood holder and I love being able to ask for a Father's Blessing, for whatever. I know that if my surgeries would have taken place here in Utah, he would have been by my side, holding my hand. Although he wasn't there in person, I know he was in his heart and he was praying for me the whole time on the other side of the nation! 

Lucky for me, my eye surgeries took place in Salt Lake so I had him! :) 

He has such a strong testimony, he is always looking to serve others. I once had someone tell me that when he was Bishop they were kind of intimidated by him because they felt like he was perfect! haha, I don't know if that's a good thing or not. :) He is truly an amazing guy!! 

I remember trying to decide on whether I should have Andy baptize me or Dad, I chose my Dad. :) I remember being kind of worried about how to go under the water, he helped me though and I remember it being a beautiful day! (Side note, I can't believe it's been almost ten years!!)

Early birthday party last year in New Jersey.

 I love these silly faces he makes, it is rare he lets me catch them on camera! You all probably shouldn't say anything about this picture, okay!? :) haha. 

I'm so blessed to be his daughter.

No matter how old I'll be, I'll always be Daddy's little girl.
