Grandpa's Hank 80th!


Our wonderfully talented, amazing grandparents.

For his birthday gift, Uncle Brad (not Donald B.) put together a photo/journal over all his life. Everybody contributed and it turned out to be a spectacular, priceless treasure:)

Grandpa Hank and his harem!

In true Taylor fashion, this was no regular party, it was an amazing musical preformance by dear friends and amazing talent. It told the history of Hanks life in music, it encompassed his faith, his heritage, his missionary experiences and even a few pieces from his stay in the south. Dueling pianos, stunning vocal solos, strings, a sweet poem by Grandma Colette, and an amazing choir. Luckily the choir backed up the one family song. Here we are trying to look like we are singing.

Here is Megan telling us to pull it together and sing a little louder:) So funny!


After was dessert and on all the tables were some recent and classic photos of Hank. This one is on of my favorite. I think it's on a beach in Rio - can you spot him? Can you guess who I inherited my flammable white skin from?

Bad lighting and and taken on an iphone didn't help:)

We love you Grandpa Hank - you truly inspire us to become better people. Happy Birthday!
