Sick of Birthday Posts?

Well too bad because it's AUSTIN'S birthday today! He is now 24 so here's 24 really COOL things about him...
1: He HATES to take his shoes off--he even naps in them and would probably even wear them to bed if I would let him. 2: He loves KIDS! Sometimes I seriously get JEALOUS when he hangs out with his little cousins more than me. 3: He doesn't like desserts. It's the WEIRDEST thing ever. I can't ever get him to eat ice cream or brownies or cake with me. 4: He STILL likes Ninja Turtles, Legos, and Transformers. 5: His favorite thing in the world is Soda Pop. MOUNTAIN DEW is his favorite, but he also loves Wild Cherry Pepsi & Dr. Pepper 6: He loves to get together with his uncles, brother, and friends to play X BOX. He says it's not the X BOX he loves, it's the "GETTING-TOGETHER" that he loves. I think it's half and half. 7: He never ever ever wants to leave AMERICAN FORK. He LOVES it! 8: His MOM is his favorite person in the world. Before we got married he told me I could never take the place of her....haha it's okay with me cause I really don't want to be his mother. 9: His favorite color is RED...why? AF Cavemen, of course. 10: He wants to start a bunch of businesses in MADAGASCAR and have a second home there (because he won't move from AF). Yeah....very high hopes. The plane tickets are thousands. Sweet. 11: He can't smile normal in pictures. He wants DIMPLES really bad so he tries to smile to make dimples. 12: He has the exact same birthday as CARMELO ANTHONY 5/29/84 13: He doesn't grow FACIAL HAIR yet. Well okay, a few SPROUTS on his chin. 14: He has the largest WIDOW'S PEAK I've ever seen!!! 15: His favorite number is TWENTY-TWO. 16: He is a "HANDY MAN". He can fix anything! 17: His favorite outfit is basketball shorts, church socks, vans, and an unmatched t shirt. 18: He loves his name..... AUSTIN LILE INGERSOLL. He doesn't like Aust or Austie or any nicknames....just Austin. 19: He's a NIGHT & a MORNING person (very rare to find). He always makes me stay up super late and watch movies and then he wakes me up by singing really loud (Thanks Grandpa Ingersoll). I'm not a morning person so yeah...it's pretty annoying! 20: His favorite movie is SHANGHAI NOON because his favorite actor is Owen. He laughs sooo hard! 21: He gets REALLY annoyed when people say, "with every fiber of my being" in their testimony. 22: He doesn't like going to the swimming pool with me because I "don't do any COOL tricks off the diving board". 23: His favorite summer-time activity is to go GOLFING with his brothers and brother-in-laws 24: He LOVES everyone.....seriously EVERYONE....and it's perfect cause everyone loves him back!
Happy Birthday Austin! Hope you have the BEST day ever! Love You!
(I'm hoping he looks at this today)

So Adam and Austin are totally brothers! I was dying when I read this entry because they could be twins.
Adam will not take his shoes off to take a nap and doesn't really like treats??He is also obsessed with his mother & of course x box. The weird smile in pictures is also an issue and don't get me started on his business ideas!

Not to mention they have great taste in women and have pretty amazing wifes!
