Fathers Day

Today was a pretty nice day overall. I admit there were tears shed because Noah wasn't here to be a part of it all. I know it was hard for Kevin not to be holding one of his sons in his arms especially today on a day that honors fathers.

During church today, our pastor had all the dads stand. Then he had slides of funny statements to eliminate the guys as he was giving away a gift card for some car washes & oil changes. Had to laugh, one of them was "if your wife dressed you today, sit down!" And yes, several guys sat down. lol Another one was "if you don't own a mini van or full size van, sit down." By the time they got through several of these, it was only Kevin & about 3 other guys standing. Then our pastor said the tie breaking question is.........who here standing has the most kids? Well, guess who won?? Yup Kevin!! The pastor said he has 5 kids with 1 on the way. Pretty neat!

The kids were all excited this morning to give Kevin the things they either picked out for him or made. After church, I cooked a big lunch over charcoal (well, some things I made inside as well). I even picked our first zucchini & grilled that along with other veggies, yum!

I'm sharing a video I put together for Kevin from all of us. (Though admittedly, I was hoping to have the baby today, what a great fathers day gift THAT would've been!!)

"My Dad"

by Abel Ullon

To a dear friend I sing today

A friend that taught me God’s ways

He’s always been there for me

And in his loving arms he cared for me

 Thank you Lord,

for my dad

Pour your blessings on him today

Thank you Lord,

for his life

My father whom I love so much

 You’ve always been an example for me

Reading your Bible and praying every day

Your words will always be my inspiration

And thanks to you, I’ve become who I am

Thank you Lord,

for my dad

Pour your blessings on him today

Thank you Lord,

for his life

My father whom I love so much

I love you dad!

I'm SO thankful for the wonderful dad my kids have!! He goes above and beyond in all that he does for us. Thanks for being a great dad Kevin, I love you!
