All that I have to say is that our parents have set many memorable records that, as far as I know, have yet to be topped.
Let us begin with Mother,
-The first (and I believe only) woman in the history of the world to get into a physical fight with a towel rack and lose.
I am fairly certain that we can all remember and respect the nights with Mom and her strange out of body experiences. There were the nights where she would try to hit me and I slowly moved out of her way as her hand drifted delicately by. The nights where we couldn't pray due to her mufffled laughter. The nights where Mom couldn't walk to bed without running into several walls or banisters. The nights where Mom would talk like an alien; "live long and prosper". All of these were good times and they serve as small reminders of Mom's party life as a youngster. Good times Mom, good times.
Now, back to the original story, Mom slipped into the bathroom late at night in one of her moods. Tried to wash up with the light off, ran into a wall and ripped the towels off. The night didn't get much better since she fell off the bed trying to get back in. Love you Mom, thanks for making childhood exciting!
Now Dad,
-The only Bishop to ever violate his own safety rules... in the middle of their presentation.
I was young, but I remember two things; riding on the back of the jet ski and seeing the look of horror on Ben's face. Long story short, Dad thought that it would be funny to drive his jet ski as fast as he could at Ben in his little canoe and then stop right before impact. The plan was excecuted flawlessly but aparently this violated a water safety rule and the ward witnessed the act in the middle of their safety lecture. If it means anything Dad, your kids loved it! (Well, Matt and Aaron at least).
You guys really are the best. You have set a great example for all of us as to what a good marriage involves and I believe that all of your kids will benefit from the example that you have given us. Happy 30th anniversary Mom and Dad! Love ya!
