HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!


This is my dad, he is the epitome of an "all-american" dad. He loves camping, hamburgers, sports and his family. I get my ability to play sports from him.(We can shoot threes all day...all day people) He came to all my b-ball games, track meets, choir and orchestra concerts in highschool. I could always count on him to be in the stands cheering me on, though not too loudly. He left the yelling and screaming at the refs to his wife and mother. My dad is a spritual giant, he is a great example of a how a Christ-like person should act. He is also one of the smartest people I know. He and Wayne can both pull random sports trivia out of no where. It is something to behold.
He is also the funnest grandpa a girl could ask for. He and Livia are the best of friends and she is counting the days(literally) until we go to Boise, although most days when I ask her how long it will be until she goes to see her grandparents she says "27!!!"
So here's to you dad, the best dad I could have ever asked for! I love you and can't wait to come hang out for the summer!


"SUPER DAD!!!" That's what Liv calls Wayne these days. She says he can fly like superman. Liv can't wait until her dad get's home from "fixing people's teeth" every day so they can play. This morning I said Liv, go tell daddy happy father's day to which she replied, "I can't, he's at school." I said, no, it's Sunday, he's in the bedroomn. She got so excited and went racing back and threw herself in his arms for a big hug.
He is such a character, he can get them both laughing like nobody's business. It always seems to be right before bed times, but oh well, what dad doesn't do that? I'm so greatful that he is getting a good education and that it is important to him to be able to support his family. I love you Wayne! You are such a great "daddy big boots" which interestingly we also used to call my dad when we were little. The tradition continues.

That was an awesome tribute to your fathers in your life. I didn't know you were in the orchestra. I was too. What did you play?
