Father's Day

 I am a little behind, but we celebrated Father's Day partly on the day before. We got out the pool and played in the water. Jeremy broke out his new grill and we tried it out cooking hamburgers. The day was perfect and the hamburgers were great. I am all for buying Jeremy a gift that gets him cooking! We are loving the grilling he is doing for us. :) 

On Father's Day, the boys woke Jeremy up ( really he was awake due to all the very loud planning the boys were doing) with the 2nd Annual Father's Day Parade. Everyone has an instrument - Andrew on the guitar, Jacob on the recorder and Michael with the maracas ( which Jacob very cutely calls the ramacas) singing : It's a Parade, It's a Parade, It's a Father's Day Parade over and over until they get the appropriate response. :)  They presented him with the tie they had made him and with the cards and origami ties they had folded for him. We all got ready and attended a church meeting where Elder Anderson spoke (one of the Apostles of our church ) and a new stake was created. It was really powerful and we really enjoyed except Jeremy was battling Michael for half the time. We came home and had ribs and potato salad. I think he had a fun day. I called my Daddy and sang to his answering machine and even sent him an email. I still haven't talked to him - I love you Daddy. I hope you aren't avoiding me!
