Happy Birthday Baby Brother!

So, I know that I'm a couple days, late, but better late than never, right?

Here are 25 things/memories I love about Dustin.

1) Hearing the story about him and Derek in MT builging that house and who threw the rock first
2) Working with dad on Grant & LaVonne's house singing Pippy the Hippy
3) Having the "magna Doodle" jingle stuck in our head, but sing "Peanut Butter" instead of "Magna Doodle"
4) Remind Justin Koogler and Wes not to let anyone hit my baby brother in the football game that night.
5) Playing in the rain at the bottom of the hill past Doc's house and filling the storm draing with leaves so we could have a "swimming pool"
6) Going to Dusty's house (our tutor)
7) How charasmatic he is
8) How fearless he can seem when it comes to trying new things/meeting new people
9) How he loves with his whole heart and never holds back
10) He's always up for a good time & a good laugh
11) He's the best chemist I know ; o )
12) The blue bomb ('nuff said)
13) Him jumping out of his 3rd story window onto the trampolin and spraining his ankle when we were like 13
14) Mom not knowing that's how he sprained his ankle until a few years ago
15) Sending him tapes of Danelle and I being silly while he was on his mission then on holidays if he liked the tapes and him telling us how ridiculous he and his companions thought we were
16) His mission farewell and how proud I was of him
17) His mission homecoming
18) How accepting he was of Matt when first met him (a week before the wedding)

21) How loyal he is
22) His willingness to "dress up" to entertain his neices and nephews no matter what time of day/night even holidays ; )
