Happy Father's Day!

We get to celebrate two events during the month of June--Jeremy's(aka-Daddy as JP would say and Da-Da as Sawyer pronounces) birthday(June 14th) and Father's Day. Jeremy turned 32 last Sunday and we celebrated with a trip to the Montgomery Zoo. Yes, that's right! Jeremy, being the unselfish person that he is, decided that he'd rather spend his day doing what he thought the boys would enjoy--the zoo and train ride. He said it best; the older you get, especially the day you become a parent, it isn't about 'you' anymore, but ABOUT the children.

Today, my sweet husband, we honor the father you became three years ago when our first-born, John Parker, arrived into this world. Now two boys later, it seems there are times our home never gets to sleep, with constant activity swirling around it and within it, but you and I wouldn't have it any other way. You work hard to provide for our family, but also make time to be with the boys, both together and one-on-one. We look forward to the years ahead where you'll teach the boys how to hit a curve ball out in the front yard, take them fishing, hunting, and golfing; or, letting John Parker and Sawyer hand you tools as you tinker with the vehicles or improve the house on a Saturday afternoon. Most importantly, being the role model for the father they will become one day. We love you sooooo much. Enjoy Father's Day today, tomorrow, and every day of the year!!!!!!

Here are some pictures of Jeremy's homemade birthday cake(that JP couldn't keep his hands off of) and Daddy's boys.
