Happy Birthday Derriere!

Oct. 24th was my little big brother brothers birthday. Derek King Meyer! I couldn't imagine our family without him. Who would we have argued with growing up if Derek wasn't around? Who would we tease for talking and kicking the walls in their sleep if Derek wasn't around? haha And there are many more things that I can mention, but won't because I don't want to embarrass him. But in all seriousness, I am so thankful for Derek. He has so many wonderful qualities that he brings into the family. I love talking with him and hanging out with him. And I know my husband loves it too. Thanks D for being such a great brother, brother in law, and uncle! We love you!! Happy Birthday! Here are some pics throughout the years....

Awww... look at those curls

I remember Derek always wearing that vest around the house.

Derek is a sleeper....

Derek has always been the type to do service for others, what a great example!

Derek served a mission in the Nashville Tennessee Mission.... he ate some crazy stuff down there.

Uncle Derek the horse! All the kids love to ride on his back.

Happy Birthday to your bro Derek. It's strange that I don't really know about your fam...I forget you have siblings sometimes...All I ever saw was you even when you lived in UT so this is fun to see...all the people in your life who are apart of you. love it.
