Happy Father's Day!

What Makes a Dad
God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so,
He called it ... Dad

Spending the day doing what Daddy likes....has to include a ride on the golf cart with all of the kids!

By the end of our ride...someone was fast asleep.........


We had a wonderful Father's Day!


Our day consisted of doing what Daddy likes best - pretty much nothing :) Daddy loves taking the puppies on the golf cart, so we did that early, since it has been hot - then watched lots of sports, then a BBQ (and Mommy burned everything...should have gone out for a nice Father's Day dinner). Dean had picked out his Father's Day gift when we went to the Dosokai, so he didn't really have any surprises, but that works best - Dean is particular about his 'collection' of pens, we added to his collection with a very pretty new pen.

Happy Father's Day!
