Happy Birthday Little Big Bro



This is a picture of my brother Nathan and I when we were just wee ones. We are only 12 months and eleven days apart in age.


He's my little big brother because he's younger than me and then taller than me. So I guess that would actually make him my Little Big Brother! Today is his 39th birthday!




Nathan was born in humble circumstances in Washington state on January 17, 1969. I'm not sure if he was disappointed that he already had a sister. Nevertheless, Nathan and I have always been very close.

This is my brother Nathan at his Junior prom. I remember being very upset and jealous that night as I was not asked to go and it was my Senior year.


This is the one and only date he went on in High School. Isn't she lovely?





This one is my brother's mission photo. He went on a Spanish speaking mission to Washington D.C. Nathan was the very first member of our family to serve a mission.


Isn't he handsome?


This is my brother's engagement photo. Do you recognize the gal in the picture? Yes, he got home from his mission, dated a couple of girls, no one that he fancied though. He decided to one day look this gal up and see if she was available. She had been engaged but had broken it. Nathan Murray and Shawna Brimley were married!



This is Nathan and Shawna and their four beautiful children: Calista, Jocelyn, Victoria, and Bradford, better known by their four letter monikers Cali, Josi, Tori, and Brad.


My brother is a successful interior designer and architect. I always knew that he would be succesful at his chosen profession.



And this is my dear brother Nathan and his family today. Aren't they the most fetching people that you have ever seen? Nathan, I am so proud of you. You are a wonderful brother, son, father, and husband that anyone could wish for. The proof is in the pudding, you are all beautiful! Happy Birthday!

Shawna Brimley went to Mesa High, right? I think that she used to hang out with my brothers! Maybe even went to a dance with one of them... Ask her if she knows Danny or David Porter! I think I even remember the engagement photo... so weird, such a tiny world!
