Father's Day 2010

Father's Day this year was down to only 3 kids plus 1 dog.  Brad - Happy Father's Day!  I am sooooo glad that our children get to have you as a father.  You are good and kind and teach the kids so well.  I love how you have taken time out of your busy life to play "Hop on Pop", coached endless soccer and basketball games and told even more incredible bedtime stories that I don't get to hear.  They are just for the kids when they are little.  You have given us all so much and we will be forever grateful.  We love you more than anything!

Ryan, Murphy, Alex, Danny and DAD!

Fathers Day 2009

This was the first Father's Day without Emily and it just wasn't quite the same. How did I get blessed this much to have Brad as the father of my children? I know how lucky I am and I hope they know how lucky they are! Brad is good and kind and strong and fun. He has taken being a father seriously - ever since he held a newborn Emily in his arms. He is such a good teacher and sets such a good example. He has always honored his Priesthood and taught the boys to honor theirs. Brad has always made time to coach the kids in various sports. It has been harder since he was made Bishop, but he has coached basketball and soccer for many years. The kids will never have a shortage of family memories either. We have been on so many wonderful family vacations, but some of our best times have even just been around the kitchen table. He works hard and provides so much for us. Thank you for all of the love and sacrifices you make for your family. We love you more than words can say!

Hooray for Dads!

How lucky we are to have such a wonderful husband and father.  Brad is so good to us and we love him so much!  I am so blessed that I get to be with him forever and that he is such an example to us.  I hope the kids realize how blessed they are.  I love you dear. :)
