Happy Birthday Dad!

Today is my Dad's 65th Birthday He has arrived. My dad enjoys many things from drawing to carving to story telling. These are also the things my kids love about him. The kids love when he sends them letters and he draws pictures on them. When Parker became a scout he carved him a walking stick for his future boy scout hikes and painted most of the scout symbols on it. It is quite the walking stick and Parker loves to take it on his hikes. The stories are a classics. My kids love to have Grandpa tell them bed time stories when he comes to visit or when we visit them. The funny thing though is he tells them so many stories that he sometimes forget where he left of but the kids are always good to remind him.

This past year my Dad had two new knees put in. You would think he was the 6 - Million Dollar Man - I haven't seen him since his last surgery, but whenever I call he's running all over Mesa, Arizona. (they have turned into snowbirds and headed south for the winter) If we can ever get them back up our way we'll have to challenge him to a race.

Have a fabulous day Dad! We Love You.
