Tanner was/is the perfect firstborn child.
Always a great example for his younger brother and sister. As a parent, that was oh-so valuable. **made my job as mom so much easier**
He is a natural leader. He easily finds the good in people and situations. He is a devoted family member. **pictured in Hawaii with siblings** He is stable and steady...dependable.
He is athletic. He joined a running club when he was ten...and has been running since...including marathons. **pictured after the SLC marathon w/dad and sister** He started sky-diving when he was 15. Loves to go hiking and rock-climbing...even cliff-diving and wakeboarding.
He's one of the smartest people I know! He posesses a wide range of talents...is super entertaining...so dang fun **perfect companion for road-tripping**
He was a missionary (for our church) in Peru. He is an awesome husband and rocks at fatherhood. It's pure joy to witness! He's a college graduate **considering going back for more**
Once again, he is an Arizonan. **pictured w/Charee & newborn Chloe** I love you (and your precious little family) Tanner...Happy Birthday! You **and your siblings** have made motherhood a true pleasure!

I linked my post to here. You nailed it on everything w/him.
Happy Birthday, Tanner!
what a sweet post i love it, it was so fun to read and so true he's amazing!
That's a sweet post. He sounds like a very active guy. We love to rock climb. In fact, that's how Ryan proposed...at the top of the first climb we did. I also sky dived before and would LOVE to get certified. Anywho...what a great family you have, Connie. You've raised some great kids.
What a sweet tribute to Tanner. Can you believe how fast time flies? I loved the picture of you and the kids when they were young...so cute!! You are such a great mom. (and the greatest YW leader! :) )
