So Much To Celebrate

When I was growing up Father's Day was exciting!
We spend many days getting ready to celebrate the man in our lives.
I love my Daddy.
I loved following him to work on the farm, being in with the animals, riding in the combine, having races milking the cows.
He taught me a lot about farm life.
He might be the reason I married a farmer! :)
I treasure the time that we spent together, our walks and our talks going to check the cows.
And now that I'm grown up and have my own kids I get to watch him be a grandpa.
He's as good a grandpa as he is a dad!
It is such a blessing to have a godly father!
Someone to look up to.
Someone to provide for you.
Someone who cares for you and would do anything to keep you safe.
Someone you can trust your heart with.

And not only do I have such an amazing father, my father-in-law is just as amazing!
He raised this awesome guy just for me!
He loves on our kids.
He has welcomed me into his family.
He is a strong leader and a godly example.
These two dads are awesome!
I am blessed!!



And now I have the privilege of watching my husband do the same things for our kids.
He teaches them life lessons.
They love riding with daddy wherever he goes.
He loves on them.
He makes our family an awesome thing to be a part of.
He is a godly leader for our family.
He isn't afraid of what other may think or say of him.
He is strong in his faith.
Our kids can trust him with their hearts.
They are blessed!!

So while Father's Day is about blessing the dads in our lives it also reminds me of how awesome it is to have these amazing men in our lives!
We are blessed!!

Father's Day Celebration #2

I'm back!!!
Summer is going by much to fast!
But we are making the most of it!
Which means not sitting inside and blogging. :)
But I have many pictures to share and will try to catch up.

First up is our second Father's Day get together at the end of June.


To celebrate Father's day on my side of the family we headed out to Carman park.
My brother had found the cutest little duckling!



Brendan loved it!



Then while Mom and us girls cooked up a feast...


Kayla ate cherries,


And the kids played volley ball.






Ruth and Janelle.


The 3 little girls.


Brendan had an obsession with this hole. He spent a good 20 mins sitting in it. :)




We all enjoyed the delicious food!


Then after supper the guys all headed to the gold course next door, while we took the kids swimming at the pool. They. Loved. It.


After swimming and golfing we headed to the ice cream shop!



Sharing is always the best.


Grampa and Kayla.


Lick away buddy!


Doesn't that just make you need ice cream?!


Milk shake time!




Happy Fathers day Dad! We love you!

Fathers Day in August

So ya, I don't even want to look back at when I did my last blog post, it was a little while ago. :) 
Our internet wasn't working for awhile, then we were gone camping for a week and then as I told my sisters yesterday, Sumer is not for blogging, its for taking pictures. :)
So, as today is a bit of a cloudy day, and I have 2 mins while my kids finish eating I figured I should really let you know that we are still around, and enjoying Summer to it's fullest!
And even thought these pictures were taken a few months ago here they are!

Father's day was spent with my family.
While the guys all went for a round of golf in the afternoon we had story time with Grama.


And Auntie Rita


We played with cousins.


And then helped Grama make supper.




Of course we had to eat the yummy food that we made.




Then after cleaning up we headed outside and sat around the fire, cuddled with Grampa and visited.



Kayla's favourite person in the whole world!


Snuggles with Auntie Rae.


And of course sm'ores! :)


Happy Father's Day to the best Daddy in the world!!!
 We love you so much!!
