Happy Birthday Tara

Tara Russell

            I just love Tara…She is one of the strongest, most spiritual young women that I know.  She has always been a person that I have looked up to and admired.  I have known the Russell Family for since Tara was very young and they have all been a wonderful example to me and Tara is no exception to that.  I know that Tara and her family have been great examples to many other people also.

            Tara's Birthday is June 4 and she turned 20.

            Tara has been attending Salt Lake Community College and is majoring in Criminal Justice.  She is also working for Sandy City as a Recreation Sport Supervisor. 

            Tara loves eating anything that is grilled, spaghetti and pretty much anything else.

She loves anything chocolate and Almond Joys and 3 Musketeers…and…her favorite restaurant is Olive Garden.  She loves reading anything that is fantasy, her favorite movie is "Lion King" and her favorite TV Show is "The Office".    She was able to give us a favorite song…says there are too many to choose, but her favorite music group is "The Cadillacs".  Good choice…If you have not had the chance to listen to this group you really need to find the opportunity to do so.  It is rumored that Tara is very close to one of the members of this group and obviously very proud of him…How fun to have your dad be a part of something so fun and to bring this kind of music into your life.  I have to admit, Tara, that I too am a big fan. 

            Tara's favorite date is "just hangin' out".  She loves reading, camping, hanging out with her friends, watching movies and soccer.  Although she loves soccer, she enjoys playing most any sport. 

            Everyone loves Tara…here are some of the things that our class had to say about her.

            "Alles gute zum Geburtstag!  I still remember you in your soccer days or that is when we played soccer.  Hope you enjoy your birthday!"      

            "Tara is always willing to participate and help during the lessons…and she is a good soccer player."

            "She is such a wonderful person and is so fun to talk to.  She has a gorgeous smile."

            "I remember the good old days in middle school playing 'socketball', Cornia's class vs. Reno's class!  Hope you have a great Birthday!"

            "Tara is an amazing piano player"
            "Tara is very outgoing and cheerful.  She is kind to everyone."
            "Sassy , but that's cool."

            "Best Sister Ever!!  She is so kind, funny and truly amazing.  She has a great Testimony and is a great example to me."

            "Sweetest woman on the planet.  My life wouldn't be where it is now without her love and support."

Happy Birthday!
