Happy Birthday Ralph

Today is my Brother's birthday. He is the baby of our family and the only boy. He was and is the most spoiled child out of all of us. I was lucky enough to get to spend a couple days at his house last week when I trekked out east for a funeral. He has found a wonderful wife who puts up with him(Kristina) and they have one little boy(Ben) and a girl(?) on the way.






Things you may not know about Ralph:


  • Despite being a runt - he was exceptional at all sports in high school. He wrestled, played soccer, baseball, football (only 1 season though) and did gymnastics. He bowled and golfed too - but I don't really count those as sports.

  • His favorite color is orange.
  • Yes, that is Chumley...

  • He is an Eagle scout and the current leader in the family Merit Badge contest. Watch out though because Connor is determined to hold that title.

  • He is addicted to Woot.



  • He loves South of the Border. It's strange I know. But he does. I've never personally been there - but I think it's somewhere in the Carolinas. He went there for his birthday last year.
  • He can scratch the back of his throat with his tongue. This annoys most of us though - but it's something not everyone can do.
  • He's a super Dad. He gets right down there and plays with Ben all the time.
  • He has red hair. So does one of my sisters - but he's the only one with kids with red hair too.
  • He used to drive a jeep - but they got rid of it. He's always wanted a truck - so if you're looking for a last minute birthday gift.....

Happy Birthday Ralph. We love you.
