Fathers Day...

Father's day was spent doing some of our family's favorite things on a Sunday:)  Sunday morning began with the rumble of Daniel's truck arriving from out of town around 7:30 in the morning.  A very nice surprise that he arrived so early!  We had coffee time and then Gabriella woke up...as soon as she found out "her" Daniel was here, along with his puppy Lucy, the squeals of excitement began!  She ran into Daniel's lap and wouldn't let go for a very long time....I'm not sure who was more excited as the smiles on both their faces didn't fade for quite a while:)  We then went to church and enjoyed an awesome church service followed by lunch at an old time favorite that was established in 1914...the miniature coke bottles, coney dogs with the best sauce in the world, chili made from scratch and the list can go on. Lunch was followed by a mini photo session that was, well, entertaining to say the least!  After a little R & R we went to a dear friends graduation open house where we spent the afternoon visiting with old and new friends alike.  Gabriella loved playing with the girls in an awesome tree/play-house custom made to attach to a swing set....just like ours!  The girls daddy mentioned that he built it in a weekend...custom made with a roof, balcony, siding etc...can you tell where this may be going?  Curtis is pretty handy in this area and Gabriella can be pretty convincing:)  A good day was had by all and it was wonderful to have our entire family together on father's day!
