"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences." ~Gordon B. Hinckley

Happy Belated Fathers' Day

Obviously June is a busy month, so I especially feel bad that both Father's Day AND Court's b-day happen during this month. Court's birthday was pretty pathetic---he went and purchased his own gifts and begged me to at least wrap them with the kids. Then on Father's Day we were up north due to our Fuller Family Reunion, and I was SICK, and we pretty much did not even celebrate. I was feeling pretty darn guilty, cuz if anyone deserves props as a Father it is Court. He is such a good daddy. Thank goodness that he works so hard to ensure that our kiddies have fond childhood memories! He is constantly doing activities with them, and always pushing us to go on vacations! It is no surprise that Waverly's one and only word is 'daddy' becuz he really is the BEST! Photobucket

We probably should celebrate him on Mother's Day as well, cuz the man keeps a way cleaner house than I----and he COOKS too! During this month of working at MCC, Court actually managed to be in town for a good portion of it, and it was sooo nice to come home to fed kids, a clean house, and finished laundry!!!! He is a little OCD and a bit of a germ-a-phobe to boot, but man alive I will take it.

Well, we decided we would surprise Court and we declared Sunday June 28th as Father's Day this year. I told the kids on Thursday what we would be doing and they were so excited! We did all the standard cards, and breakfasts, and gifts (that he did not purchase himself) and of course we CLEANED the house! But since Court was not expecting it, it was soo much fun!

We love you Court! You really are the best and we appreciate all you do.

(We really might want to look into legally changing your birthday and Father's Day out of the month of June, though Ü)
