Happy Father's Day


We were so lucky to be up North this weekend for Fathers Day for many reasons; it was very hot in the valley, we got to spend time with Uncle Jeff, Auntie Stephanie, Emma,Papa and Grandma Joyce too along with a lot of badly needed R&R after enduring a hellacious week. Drake had minor surgery done on his foot, and completed the root canal on the from tooth he broke during baseball practice, Broc got stung by a scorpion and Trey's recovering from his bi-lateral knee surgery made for a stressful week. Lots of doctor appointments and worrying about all three boys at once made the cabin life extremely rewarding.

With no TV in the cabin we are lucky to be forced to spend quality time with one another. Broc made a homemade "Deal or No Deal" game for Mike that we all loved playing. Trey especially loved being the banker and was a ruthless one at that. The kids loved playing outside, up in the loft, and just the beauty of one on one time with one another. Trey also took to being the big cousin to Emma and kept a close eye on her...he said, "she gets in trouble a lot huh Mom?" So funny to see Trey not as the baby anymore and how much he loves his new role.

Each of the boys made Mike a coffee cup especially designed by them for him. All three of the cups were decorated with sports teams, and they all gave Mike the official title of "Coach". I am so proud of Mike and how much time he spends with the boys in their individual sports endeavors and obviously they love it just as much in return.
Happy Father's Day honey, Jeff and Papa~thank you for the precious family time!
