Father’s Day

We had a wonderful day with the Dads in my family on Sunday.  It’s kind of become our tradition to gather at Mom and Dad’s house and grill steaks.  So after everyone went to their own church, that is what we again did.  My sister Robin and her family live in North Glenn and it always takes them awhile to get to our family get-together.  So this year, my brother Scott came prepared…

He brought some ribs and cooked them, for the “early birds” he said!  They were good, what an appetizer!  Kind of unusual that this year, the Dads were short on kids.  Both Wally and Scott had no children present this Father’s Day. Terry had only two of his sons, Aaron and Nathan.

These are the most important Dads in my life.  A little bittersweet to realize Wally’s Dad was not here this year.  He is with our Heavenly Father!

          

Here is all the Dads of the Day…

Terry, Wally, Dad and Scott

And a picture of Dad and the Colorado kids…

My Mom tried to get in on the shot but was told it was just for Dad.  Her son-in-laws of course made her step away.  She put on a big pout, and Wally was quick enough to snap her picture.  (All in fun, in case you are wondering!)

So, we let her in…

BTW, can you see that green stuff behind Mom and Dad?  Its our corn!  It was a good foot high already!  Should be “knee high by the Fourth of July”!  We should have a great crop this year!

Jeremiah 17:7  “Blessed is the man who trust in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord”

And how blessed to have men, and Fathers in my life who choose to trust and hope in the Lord.  It certainly does impact the families around them.  Thank you Dads!
