Happy Father's Day


Early Sunday morning the kids got up and started making cards for Dad. They were very excited to do our traditional breakfast in bed for Father's Day. We made him bacon, eggs, hash browns, and strawberries.


He actually requested a bacon sandwich, so he got it on toast. We really need to get a proper tray because it seems this tradition is sticking around and the cookie sheet is getting a little old! Doesn't really look very festive. We also need a special plate- does anyone know where to buy those? We had a red plate when I was growing up and it said "Your special day" around the edges. 


Olivia is our little server. She LOVES to be the one to deliver the tray to the honored person in bed. On Mother's Day, after they had served me, she told Austin and Ashley to go get in bed so she could serve them breakfast. I think this is SO sweet, however it grosses me out to think of all that eating in bed! Ick- I want to wash everyone's sheets immediately! But I give her good charity points for being so kind.

Anyway, Jared had a nice breakfast in bed and enjoyed his cards. He also got a massage and was waited on all day. We made him Shepherd's Pie for dinner that evening.


Thanks Jared, for being a good dad!!!


WE LOVE YOU!


Cheers to Jared! (we had to give him Mountain Dew for his big day)

Mountain Dew in a goblet, that's so nice!

Jared's eyes look all red...are allergies kicking his butt or has he been hitting the sauce?!

Mountain Dew....so funny!!! I love it!

You guys are so great to do breakfast in bed. I love that tradition.

Great photos!

P.S. You could maybe paint one of those plates yourself. I don't know where to buy them, but I've seen them too. T.J. MAxx???? Something like that. If you find one, please let me know.

Yes, his allergies have been really bad lately. His left eye was totally bloodshot. I should have mentioned that...

Maybe I can do one of those plates at Color Me Mine or something... but that would mean I'd have to bring creativity along with me and it's in short supply lately.
