Father's Day

We had a wonderful Father's Day with our WONDERFUL FATHER. The girls made him a nice brunch Sunday afternoon and waited until he got home at 2:20 to eat with him!


The children made him cute oragami cards with all the things they love about their dad. Some of the things include:

* You are the best dad ever
* I love it when you make my bed
* You are the #1 Dad
* Awesome friend and example
* Hard worker
* Love the gospel
* Fun to be around
* Teach me so much
* Great griller (Good thing he got a new grill for Father's Day!)
* Love it when you swim with me
* Great provider and teacher
* Patient and kind
* I hope to be more like you each day!

We are thankful for our Dad, our grandfathers and our greatgrandfathers! And we do hope to be more like each one of them some day!
