Dad's Day

Fun Daddy-celebrating weekend of strawberry picking, bathroom project, playing with the kids, church, lots of food, and a bundle of gifts to tell Reuel how fantastic he is for loving and taking care of us so generously and sacrificially.  I think I did my job in calorie-saturating him.  Let's see.  Started with a 9x13 of peach cobbler on Friday night, then fresh-picked strawberries galore and grilled steak and shrimp dinner Saturday, strawberry and whipped cream waffles on Sunday morning, Chipotle burritos for lunch after church, rhubarb cake for the afternoon, and then Reuel cried uncle.  In contrast to Mother's Day where I got the day off, for Father's Day, Reuel took the day off of his projects and just played with the boys ALL day.  What a guy!  Nothing says we love you Dad like a power washer, an ultrasonic toothbrush, an LED headlamp and a 24 pack of coke, right??  We love him so much, we just couldn't stop adding to his pile :)  Thanks for all you are and do, Dad!

Ha ha, I love that you gave him Coke! That Father's Day list sounds exactly like the ones from Father's Days past, when I was growing up.
