Our Dad

Another year has flown by and we are again celebrating our dad.  One thing about our dad, that you can never question, is his love for his kids.  He adores them, he loves them, hugs them and kisses them (sometimes a little too much!)
Anyway, here's a list we've compiled of the top things we love about our dad (in no particular order).
Our dad loves to have fun with his family.  He is always willing to dig in the sand, play horsey, or engage in a water fight.

Our dad loves to play with fire.....pits.  He loves to show off his scouting skills and makes a pretty awesome fire for roasting hot dogs, marshmallows, and various other things that burn!  
Our dad loves hockey, which he has passed on to his kids.  Two winters ago he built...for the kids (ya right), an outdoor hockey rink which was about the length of our house! He would come home from work late and pull out the hoses to groom the rink.  I think he only skated on it a handful of times but enjoyed making it for his kids and their many friends who came to skate and slide.
We also love our dad because he likes to do 'outdoorsy' stuff with his family.  To name a few: hiking, camping, soccer, hockey, bike riding, trail riding, trampoline jumping, and swing pushing!
There are of course too many things to write but those are just a few.  We love our dad,  so HAPPY FATHERS DAY DADDY!

If he's so outdoorsy, how come his body is so dang white? Haha. Yep, he's a good daddy. And a good uncle, even when he takes a knife to pop ballons and looks like a total psycho. I still crack up thinking about that, what a gong show!
