This post is for YOU! Today, 36 years ago, you, Mark Isaac Crosby were born! I thought I'd share a few pictures of YOU! Back in the 'old days', we didn't know ahead of time what we'd be getting, until the baby was born. We were very happy to get a son! I always loved the name "Mark" and we chose "Isaac" because I read in a baby name book that it meant "son of my rejoicing", which you have always been!
Mark you were due Feb. 28th, but you came almost 4
weeks late!! I think you really liked all the chocolate
I fed you and when your eyes were the color of chocolate
chips, I knew it was true!
FINALLY- you arrived weighing in at 7 lb 6oz.
We thought you were the most wonderful baby,
everything you did was just amazing!
My swiss Gma wanted you to have something special for
your blessing and so she crocheted this whole outfit for you,
including the blanket. You were to little to know that maybe it wasn't the coolest outfit to be wearing, but you were a good sport!
You and your Dad- so proud to have a son!
My Mom and Aunt Sherry came from California and spend a week with us. We were living in Spanish Fork at the time.
Here you are with your Gma Jo and your cousin Michael
Crosby, born about a month before you.
Your Dawes grandparents, better known as Nanna & Pompa!
I'm sure you were thinking- "Uhh Mom, is Pompa supposed to be watching me, because I think he fell asleep!"
Your Dad had big plans for you and this old car.
Here you are with your Gpa Melvin Crosby. We were up at Greer Lakes and he was telling you all about your great Gpa that helped design and build the lakes for the irrigation system for Eagar.

Mark, I hope these pictures help remind you of how LOVED you are and that you have a great legacy of wonderful people who want you to carry on the great family names. Being the oldest of 7, you have always been a wonderful big brother, always a great example for them to look up to, and we couldn't have asked for a better son than YOU. We think you are pretty special and we LOVE YOU LOTS! Happy Birthday!
