So, my dad is turning 55 tomorrow, which means something big! That’s right--he can now order off the senior menu at IHOP. I’ll be having pancakes sometime this weekend to celebrate his birth for sure. Isn’t it handy that I created this blog and can now honor him in the best way I know how? Here are some embarrassing endearing pictures of the two of us over the last thirty years.

| Apparently, men were still encouraged to wear hazmat suits in the delivery room in 1980. |
 |
| I could probably write an entire blog post with just pictures of us sleeping next to each other. |
 |
| Who knew we would inspire a hipster trucker hat trend twenty years later? |
 |
| This happened a lot. What can I say? He liked bedtime stories. |

| We look alike #1: Flying a kite version |
 |
| Family vacation #1:Jabba the Hutt's cave version |
 |
| We look alike #2: Gone Fishin' version |
 |
| Sweet suit, Dad. |
 |
| Family vacation #2: Clark Griswold version |
 |
| We look alike #3: Roller coaster scream version |
 |
| Cool dads let you borrow their clothes. |
 |
| We look alike #4: Sooner sweatshirt version |
 |
| The one and only time I've ever helped change the oil in a car |
 |
| The one and only time I (almost) mowed the lawn |
 |
| We look alike #5: Popeye version |
 |
| What's the saying? The more things change... |
 |
| Family vacation #3: Playing cards back at the hotel room version |
 |
| We look alike #6: Scared face version |
 |
| Now, THAT is a much better suit. |
