We celebrated Fathers Day with my dad a little late this year. I'm used to seeing my dad on Fathers Day, but this year I wanted Jim to decide how to spend his first Fathers Day as a new dad. He chose to stay at home with the kiddos. So the kids and I traveled to my parents house on the Thursday after for a day long visit.
Fathers Day has become very important to me. As some of you know, my dad is not my biological father, but he is very much my Dad in every sense of the word. I like to say family is not always biological, and he (along with his whole family) is a perfect example. I count him as one of the greatest blessings in my life. He has always given me unconditional love and endless patience no matter what. Now that we have Drew and Bree, he shows them the same love and patience I enjoy, plus a whole lot of grandpa spoiling! So, today, we honor a grandfather and a "grand" father too! We love you!!!

What a nice tribute to your wonderful father. I love the pictures, too. In the last one, I can't believe how big Drew has gotten!!!
