Happy Birthday Dad!

Tonight we took my dad out sailing on the boat for his birthday. It is his new favorite past time. When we got there the water was low...REAL low...so low in fact that we all weren't able to go on the boat! We decided that those who hadn't been out before and Dad (of course) would be the ones to set sail! So that meant Jeremy and I (and Mechelle and Aaron) just stayed behind and watched them sail out. As soon as they got out of the harbor we saw the boat stop and knew they were probably stuck. Here they are talking with Aaron trying to figure it out. As soon as they got un-stuck they came right back...the lake was way too low (Aaron and Mech are going to move the boat this weekend.)

When they got back we got to watch the sunset...it was amazing. Then we headed back...not the fun filled night of sailing that we had planned but it was still fun to hang out with everyone!

Father's Day Feast!!!

The girls spent all afternoon "making" us a picnic in their toy room. They invited us up for a Father's (and Mother's, so you can come too mom) party. We all put on our fancy hats and had a good time eating plastic cake and cookies! The girls are so cute! They LOVE their dad! And he is so great with them--I'm glad we have so many smiles and giggles in our home!

Jeremy is such a good dad. It takes a special man to be the father of so many girls (I've been told that by more than one person--and it is so true!) You can tell the girls mean the world to him--the way his eyes sparkle when he talks about them (as any proud fathers should.) The way he explains things to them and answers their never ending questions about anything from bugs, to how does an airplane fly, to why does it rain and every thing in between! I'm glad they have him in their lives, he is a great example to them of what a man should be! I'm glad that he is mine and I'm grateful that they get to call him dad!
