Father's Day

What is the best gift you can give Jaysen for Father's Day?

An afternoon of watching golf in his Man Cave......

Happy Father's Day Jaysen!

Happy Belated Fathers Day!

One of the perks of living so close to both families is that we are able to see everyone on holidays. Most of you know how important family is to me, and I want to pass that on to my kids.

Anyway...Sunday afternoon we went out to Jerome to visit Grandpa Burnham and wish him a happy Father's Day.

And then that night we went to Grandpa Casperson's house to visit with my family and see my dad. I'm a bad daughter and amidst the hubbub at my Gramps' house I forgot to nab a picture of my kids with their Papa. I think this is the first year in a long time that I won't have one. :0( I did get one of him and Mackenzee on Saturday night as he opened our gift to him....but it's just not the same.

Anyway....happy belated Father's Day to everyone! I hope you felt loved and appreciated! To our fathers....we do! Thanks for all you do! To my Jaysen....I think I've already gone on and on enough about him lately on my blog. But, I love you like a crazy and appreciate having you for the father of my kids. :0) You are a great example of love for them. Thanks so much!

Father's Day Weekend

I know, I know...I'm a little later than usual getting this post up. It's finals week, yet again...so I am busy as a little bee trying to get my work done. Sigh. In fact, I should be finishing up one of my papers now instead of posting this. But, if I don't get it up now, it may never happen. :0) And, since this blog will go down in history {once I get it transferred to a book} I need to make sure that I keep up.

On Saturday morning we went over to my mom's house to visit as my sister, Melanie, came to visit for the holiday. My kids have been dying to see their cousins. Dear Shelby humored my Mackenzee and read her story after story. This is one of Mackenzee's favorite things to do now. All of the books on the bookshelf in the playroom end up on the floor as she "reads" through each of them telling her own little stories based on the pictures. It's awesome.
As it was Father's Day weekend....golfing was on the brain {also because the US Open was on}. Jaysen bought a package of spongey like golf balls so that he and my dad and Stephen could play a little "yard" golf. They set up fake holes around the house and played 9 holes.

I set up the slip and slide for the kids and they had a grand time racing each other to the end.

Kenzee just loved following Savanna around and had to do whatever Savanna did. She just idolizes her cousin.

That afternoon we took the kids to see 'Kung Fu Panda'. It was such a cute movie. Of course, afterwards the boys only wanted to play Kung Fu and sing 'Kung Fu Fighting'...but what can you do?

And to end the night....we helped Papa plant his Father's Day present. I won't go into details...but big trees are heavy. Just so you know. But, we did it! And now my dad has his big oak tree in the yard. Though...we tied a blue ribbon around it...not a yellow one. :0)

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

Happy Fathers Day! I hope all you fathers out there had a great day and were well taken care of by your kids and spouses.

Jaysen took my dad and his dad out golfing Saturday morning, so I was able to grap a couple of photos of the kids with Papa for the old scrapbook. ;0) The guys had a good time golfing and came home tired. Just in time for the US Open too. ;0) So, Jaysen was able to get in some lazy tv time Saturday afternoon.

Doesn't he look so tired in this picture? Almost makes you feel bad for the guy. ALMOST.

Anyway....

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!
