Happy Fathers Day



Today was Fathers Day. Here is a picture of my dad on our trip to Alaska last fall. I have the best dad I could ever ask for. I'm so thankful for everything he has done for me. He has taught me so much over the years through his example. He is also one of the smartest people I know. I once asked him why he is so smart. He told me that he reads alot. That's the truth. He does read alot. Most of the time when I come home from work he is reading. For as long as I can remember, he has been a reader. He taught me to respect my mother not only by words but also by action. He would never let any of us kids talk to our mother in any way that wasn't respectful. All of us kids knew we were in trouble if he heard any of us sass our mother. He is also a kid at heart especially around the 4th of July. Those who know him understand what I mean by that. I love my dad and hope I can be a better daughter to him. Happy Fathers Day, Dad!! I love ya!!

Last night, our family all got together and went out to dinner. Everyone was there, Dad, Rob, Natalee, Tobyn, Kordell, Ruthie, Alton, Kim, and I. We don't get together too often so it was really nice to catch up. We went to Tocanos, a Brazilan restaurant, in Provo. It was really good food!! Let me tell you, I've got a lot of working out to do to counteract what I ate!! I love getting together with my family. We really need to get together more often.

I also want to wish all of the dads out there a very Happy Fathers Day. Thank you for all you do.
