Happy Father's Day!

June 17, 2012

We arrived at Island Park on Fathers Day, and got to have a nice relaxing day with Brian. Each child gave Brian something: Emma made him some binoculars out of a fruit snack box for all our sightseeing moments that we would have on our vacation. We accidently left Kaylee's gift at home (ingredients for Smores), so she gave hime a more meaningful gift, a nice big hug. Jacob gave him some fishing lures, and Tyler picked out a jacket for him. We are all so grateful for Brian and for the good father that he is! He is a great example to all of us; he's patient, kind, fun, and loves to spend time with his family. We couldn't ask for a better husband and father than that!

A special treat this Father's Day was to have Brian's parents there to spend some of the day with us. When Brian and I were dating, I was so impressed with how kind, good, and patient he was, and when I met Brian's parents, I saw where he got that from.

I am so thankful for Brian's Dad and my Dad who have taught me so much, and who have helped me learn some important lessons through easy and tough moments.

We have the best family on earth!

Happy Fathers Day to these wonderful, amazing Fathers who have influenced me and so many others for good! I love you!
