Happy Birthday Uncle Robert

Happy Birthday Uncle Robert! You were always the fun Uncle :) I remember when we were kids visiting you in Manhattan Beach, you had stuffed animals for us to play with and you would tell us stories about them. Beckie and I loved when you and Aunt Alice would visit us in Texas, what other Uncle would walk his nieces to the park at the school on a Saturday and help us look for 4-leaf clovers.
I have always loved your quiet disposition, I loved the time I got to ride with you in your truck to Wendover. We talked about all the music and books we like. I remember feeling like you really thought I was an equal you could talk with. It made me feel really smart.
I always envied that you were such a good cook like Grandma, it is one of the reason's I wanted to be a good cook. I loved when you made dinner how everyone was so excited about how great it was.
One of my favorite memories of you are in Grandma & Grandpa's pool. It was so fun as kids to watch our dad and uncles having 'Diving Olympics'! I was telling Matt about that when we got our pool, it hasn't taken off at our house just yet, maybe next summer :)

Uncle Robert, I hope you have an awesome birthday filled with the people you love, music and good food. We all love you so much! xo
