fathers day ---

kids eathing popcycles in the back of the truck

fun-food --family--phone calls from the ones away--does it get any better than that? hope all felt the love they should have on fathers day--I gave dad breakfast in bed--then he opened some new shirts--(and acted surprised since I made him help me pick the out) and then we went to church --he came to our ward--nancy and the girls and the baby came to church too--bryan and brianne and kids came right over after their church--then we ate and played--uno and grass, sky, fever, heart game

and we ate some more and below is a fancy pudding /fruit dessert that the kids helped me make

and gayle gertsch had left a cheesecake from the cheesecake factory for us to enjoy--then the usual rolls-and jam and everyone brought food--so I hardly cooked a thing and it was all fun--the kids went on a little "treasure hunt' that I had set up for them to take--and they found the clues--then we went for a walk around the block and visited some more--and then everyone had to say their goodbyes--and it was such a great day--to enjoy the church services--taking the sacrament and remembering because of our loving Savior--we can share family ties and family times throughout all eternity--and Father's day was a reminder of our wonderful earthly fathers helping us--strive to be worthy to obtain that goal.
