Father's Day 2010

We're so glad when Daddy is home! Nate started his Father's Day with breakfast in bed, donuts from Krispy Kreme and fresh strawberries. (Hey, I wasn't gonna argue when he said what he wanted-church is at 8:30.)
Then off to church we went. Our primary class made their dad's candy bow ties, and I made one for Nate while I was at it. The young women also handed out starbursts to all the men in the ward. But best was the primary sang to the dads.
I think it's odd that men cook the Mother's Day dinner and then can't wait to grill their own on Father's Day. Nate chose steak and french fries. Since we've only made them once before, the girls were way excited.
Kayla stole one as soon as they came out.

We love to use our fancy dishes on Sundays. The girls chose the plain white ones for Father's Day. They helped get everything ready.
Later we gave Daddy his present. Allie and Kayla decided they should model his new shirts. (We've been looking all over for a small charging station. I gave Nate one a few years ago, but he decided we didn't need it. Then he changed his mind and has been wanting one since about January. I was looking for labels at Walmart when I found this one for $2.50. It's just the size we were wanting. Yay!!!)
Awe!
And then the tickling begins.
I think Daddy is winning, but the girls have a secret weapon. Look at their mouths and maybe you can guess.
Incredibly loud high pitched screams. Dad's only defense was to stop the tickling and cover their mouths.
We love you Nate! You are a wonderful husband, father, provider, friend, and so much more. I love you so much. I'm so thankful for all the wonderful Dads in my life. I don't know what I would do without you. Happy Father's Day!
