"Any man can be a Father but it takes someone special to be a dad"
--Anne Geddes
I am undoubtedly blessed to share my life with an amazing woman and partner, and three of the most adoring, scrumptious little presents from God.
I am undeserving of this privilege; I am sometimes mystified at how I was chosen for this.
And yet, I am so humbled and grateful for the opportunity.
With that, here was my whirlwind Father's Day weekend:
 |
| VBS program at the Markham Woods Church. |
 |
| Braelyn enjoyed singing up front, even with a huge bird behind her! |
 |
| Brae and Kohl enjoying the reception afterwards. |
 |
| With the youngest. |
 |
| Waiting for the arrival of the Peabody ducks. |
 |
| Their "home" during the day. |
 |
| Kohl exploring the play park. |
 |
| Maddy sits on the spinning bucket chair. |
 |
| All three hanging on the spinning stick. |
 |
| Maddy doing her hanging thing. |
 |
| The boys enjoy the shade. |
 |
| At the new Turtle Trek exhibit. |
 |
| At first we thought those were rocks but they ended up being very large turtles. |
 |
| Seeing the last Shamu show of the day. |
 |
| Pancake breakfast courtesy of Mommy while... |
 |
I was treated to a round of golf in Tarpon Springs by Bruce's parents, the Bergherms.
|
 |
| Enjoying the neighborhood park in the afternoon. |
 |
| Using Daddy as a horse! |
 |
| Twins sharing my lap. |
 |
| Lunchtime visit to Chuck E Cheese's place. |
 |
| Riding together, sharing the steering the wheel. Kohl looks perplexed! |
 |
About to conduct a science experiment with water and some food coloring.
|
 |
| This week at Costco! |
Meals of the week:
 |
| Filet of raw salmon with assortment of flowers and herbs. |
 |
| Steak 'n Eggs. A classic. |
 |
| Garden Vegetables on a bed of Orzo. |
Have a great weekend!
Beautiful comments on your daddyhood! (if there was such a word). I am so proud of you, Allen, and how you are caring for your family. I think that Tangie and the children will agree w/ me when I say that You are a very wonderful Husband and Father as well as a very good Son! (no bias here!) So that's my tribute to you for Father's Day! Enjoyed all the pictures and meals altho' the portion for the salmon is a little bit on the skinny side! Dad would finish 4 of those! Love you guys! We'll see you via Skype tomorrow. Lala
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I forgot to ask you, did you cook the raw salmon w/ assortment of flowers and herbs after the picture was taken? or did you eat it raw? Just wanted to know! Lala
ReplyDeleteI ate it just like it was prepared. :)
DeleteI love the picture of the twins sharing your lap. It reminds me of an earlier picture of you feeding them bottles at the same time as babies. I was so impressed! They have grown so much since then. Time is flying by!
