Father's Day and Our Anniversary

Today, June 21, is Father's Day but it is also the day my husband and I were married 7 years ago.This photo is of my dad and I from this day seven years ago. He passed away last year right about this time from COPD. So Dad, Happy Father's Day up above, I hope you are watching down on us and smiling today!


First time a Father: January 5, 2004- McKenna Haylie was born.


Second time a father: January 17, 2006- Kambry Lynn was born.


Third time a father: August 22, 2008- Aislynn Kate was born.


This morning we woke up at a fairly early hour, got dressed, and headed out the door to Cracker Barrel to take Daddy out for breakfast. We love country cooking and had our fill on anything and everything. Even Aislynn joined in and had many bites of pancakes, grits, scrambled eggs, biscuits, hashbrown casserole and even finished off her banana plum grape baby food. She wanted more and more and fussed until she got it. I think we are just going to relax around the house for the rest of the day. I love a lazy Sunday, it just makes more work for Monday right?
These years have gone by so quickly and now we have three beautiful daughters, one dog, and two cats. The above picture is from out first dance as a married couple. We love to dance and miss the times when we could easily go out on a Friday night. I don't see any of those days coming soon, maybe down the road when are kids are more grown. At least we have a loving home with many memories made each and every day.

Happy Father's Day all you fathers out there and Happy Anniversary to us!!

I just sat down at the computer from being away for the week-end and saw your blog today. The picture of you and dad took me by surprise. Tears are running down my face. Happy remembering your beautiful wedding day and how proud Dad always was of you and sad that he's gone. Cute idea of Bart with each of the new babies for Father's Day. Thank you for making today's blog so special for me, too.
I love you,
Mom

I love the pics Lindsay - your wedding day was so special. Lots of friends, gorgeous outside, beautiful couple, and you had a really hot girl read scripture... ;)

the pic with your Dad is awesome - we just went and visited my Dad because he has a short time to live. I'm trying to cherish these moments with him now....

Miss you Friend!
