Elway and Landis

This is a picture of Daddy and his birthday gift! Kaitlyn worked really hard at pulling it all together! You see, her Uncle Shane saw this autographed football of John Elway's and just knew it would be perfect for Matt. Not only did Shane pick up the football and plaque picture here, but he made this stand and wall hanging for it all to go on! Matt has been a huge Elway fan since he was about 9 years old, I think. He told me once that Elway was the first quarterback he ever saw play on TV, and ever since then he's followed his career, as well as the Broncos.

Matt really likes it and was even surprised!

About a month ago Shane and his family came for a visit and 'snuck' this gift into our home, and Kaitlyn decided to just hold on to it and give it to Daddy on his birthday!

Didn't she do a great job?
