Ode To Jake

As some of you might know, Jake had a birthday a couple of days ago! I slacked on my wifely duties and was so busy with all of the party arrangements, that I didn't have time to get this post out on the big day. (Babe, I hope you'll forgive me.) However, I still wanted to pay a tribute to the man I know and love, and share with the world some of what has helped mold him into the amazing person he is. So, without furthur adeu, here he is. Happy Birthday Jake!!!




The Fam...(Jake is in the front wearing a trendy pink shirt and tie)

This is either a picture of Jake being "Stuart" from Mad TV ("Doooooooon't ! Let me do it!!") or the skit, "Soldier Boy". I can never remember which one; classic little ham though.

Jake with Dad at Lake Powell. He still talks about those trips. We both love this picture.

Jake after a track meet at BYU. He was an amazing athlete and ran the 4x4 and 4oo Meter Sprint. What a fox.

Grandpa Butler was so proud that I married an Eagle Scout!

Jake after High School graduation with Mom and Dad Hansen.

Kyle Bills, Robby Pratt, President Alexander and Jake. These guys were great mission buddies. Still are actually. Hooray for incredible friends!

The love of my life. He made this picture look good:)

The best dad ever. Happy Birthday sweetheart! I love you so much!!!
