"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly." - Pres. Thomas Monson

He Never Ceases to Amaze Me

Last Saturday I came home from a shopping trip and found this cute scene in the backyard. Dave said he got tired of waiting for me to come home and made due. He didn't complain, or even act upset that I was gone...he just took care of business. As you can see, McKenna LOVED the ride and Dave wouldn't let me take her from him. What a cute daddy!
Father's Day landed on Taylor's Birthday this year, so poor Dave and Taylor had to share their special day, so I figured they could at least have their own blog post. Dave's Father's Day was pretty "pooty" if you ask me. I tried to make Taylor feel special and therefore, kind of put Dave on the back burner. The kids made cards and we bought this grill for some serious BBQin'. Dave deserves way more than I can give him. He IS the world's best father and NO ONE could even try to convince me otherwise (not that anyone ever would). I know I take him for granted way too much and I'm trying to stop that. Our kids are extremely lucky to have him for a father and I couldn't have picked a better daddy for them. :) Love you!

A lean mean (and bearded) grillin' machine. The inaugural use.

The lawnmower backpack is absolutely adorable! What a good dad and husband.

Glad to see he's finally mowing his own lawn and not making his old father-in-law do it. :)
