Father's Day and Happy Birthday Dad!

I had 3 wonderful people to celebrate on Father's day! Unfortunately, my dad's celebration had to be postponed, but my wonderful husband and father-in-law were celebrated. Jason is a fantastic father of our 3 kids. The boys count down the days when Jason is working until he will be home again. They love to play football, baseball and especially soccer with Jason. He is my partner in parenting and I love him like crazy!

My fantastic dad. My dad is one of those guys everyone wants to know or already does know. He is fun, cheerful, intelligent, honest, full of integrity, generous, and thoughtful. I love that he lives 7 miles from us and randomly shows up at my house sometimes. He loves Jesus and wants to do amazing things with his life for Him. I love that. He loves my kids maybe almost as much as I do (haha! just kidding- just as much as I do, I'm sure!) and they LOVE their Poppy too! AND - Happy Birthday DAD! Today is my dad's birthday!! So... I love you dad. You're the best dad I could ever want or ask for.

We spent Father's Day at the Prince's celebrating with the whole family (except sorely missed Jesse and Luci!) including Darren and Pam. It was great fun with fantastic food.

I guess I didn't get a picture of Dan in there - ooops! Dan is also an amazing father. He loves the Lord and continues to seek His will in his life. He is generous and loving. He too LOVES our kids so much. He will often call and want to come see them or meet up with us to get a "dose" of the kids. He is so supportive of his kids - he still goes to Jason's soccer games! Dan, we are so grateful for you and love that you live close by!

ALSO-- Happy Birthday to Judy on Friday! Judy is thoughtful, loving, encouraging and patient. I was thinking the other day how its great I don't have "problems" with my mother-in-law as so many other women do. Judy is supportive of me as her son's wife and is constantly encouraging me as a wife and mom. She sends fun cards with stickers and always smells really good :-) Happy birthday Judy!
