Father's Day

 

Father's Day was a good one this year!  We got to celebrate with my dad a few days before (with signs & a little gift!) and then with the yummiest cupcakes a few days after.  Dan and Tyler drove to Hilton Head on Father's Day this year (for their third annual "Bro Trip") but we got to spend time with them before they left!  We had notes and cards ready for Dan to see when he woke up, & Brady and I picked up Panera takeout so we could sit all together for lunch.  While we were eating lunch, a butterfly (that looked just like the one pictured below) knocked into our sliding glass door.  Because of the sound, it made me look over, & then I also noticed a white butterfly flying in our yard.  It was a special moment that made me think about and remember Dan's dad.

I love these comparison photos and the fact that Brady is wearing the shirt that Tyler was wearing in the first photo...

Tyler posted a photo & message for Dan on his mountain biking page.  I didn't even notice that he had typed, "Happy Birthday," instead of, "Happy Father's Day" until he posted the photo a second time and wrote, "Happy Father's Day Dad.  I accidentally said birthday.  I love you.  Best Dad Ever."

The cards & signs this year were so cute!  I can't get over Brady's amazing handwriting!

I love all of these photos of Dan & my dad...

Whenever Dan has his cereal in the morning, Brady wants to have his cereal too...
