My Hero:

This man here is Brian Luke Davey. He's a father , a brother, a husband, a son, an Army guy and a friend. I'm so glad he made the decision to fall in love with my Sister, Mandi, and ask her to marry him. Brian is absolutely fantastic with his little girl, my niece, Seja Belle. I can't wait to see how well he's going to do with the new baby that's on the way (another girl due very soon!). I've never seen a more happy and well-rounded family. As you can tell in these pictures to your left, they're an absolutely adorable family and he is so loved by his girls! Brian is a great father, always teaching Seja and trying to get her to understand. He's very patient... Most of the time (Hey, Brian, remember that time you were trying to put the book shelf together?)... But very patient :) He's always trying to laugh and tell jokes, or (a lot of the time) do what my sister wants- even if it's small and silly. 

[STORY TIME- an actual  memory of my favorite couple in the world: Mandi and I are Chick-Flick lovers. One time after watching a very dramatic fight scene between a couple, Mandi says, in a dreamy voice, " I want someone to kiss me in a desperate attempt to stop a fight." Just then Brian comes downstairs to the movie room, and I laugh and inform him, " Brian, your wife wants you to kiss her in a desperate attempt to stop a fight." He gets a serious face on and starts mock telling off Mandi, and before she could respond or even understand what was happening, he grabbed her face and kissed her... As I rolled on the ground laughing hysterically. Mandi just looks at him and says, "It has to be an actual fight, honey." Brian just shrugs and mutters, "I tried."] Haha Brian is most family oriented. He loves his family so much and he's always there for them. He's also very involved, interested and, sometimes, concerned about what's going on in our country. Not to mention... TWINS FAN!

Brian's an Army man through-and-through. Even though he's a democrat (very uncommon in Utah), he's still really open to others point of view and their plans. Mr. Army, as I call him, is very Army-Strong, and everyone else is weak-sauce. I mean, he practically invented the "Man Card" :) However, he knows when to be serious and when it's okay to have fun. Like in these pictures on the left- I mean I'm not sure if the one on the bottom right is staged or not... What do you think? ;) SSG Brian Davey is currently serving a year tour in Afghanistan. I can't comprehend how brave he is- how brave my sister and my niece are. Not only is he risking his life for his country, but he's missing a year of his young daughters life and his wife's entire pregnancy of their second baby (don't fret: Mandi and I are documenting EVERYTHING). At the end of this month he'll get two whole weeks to come home and be here for his new baby girl! Then he has to leave again to finish is tour. Oh my dearest Brian. I miss you. And (in case you didn't know) you're my favorite brother-in-law... What I mean by that is: All of Mandi's other boyfriends were nowhere near as awesome as you are! :) I love you. Take care of yourself out there, and I can't wait to see you! Be a good boy :)
