Swings are up! & Happy Father's Day!

Now that the yard is in, it's time for the swing set to go up!
The kids have been waiting and waiting for this and daddy, Uncle Andrew and Uncle Marc are just the men to do it!
They really did work so hard for hours and then...
...up it went and the swinging began!
The triplets didn't know how to swing on their own or honestly, they just didn't want to try to do it on their own but the swing set went up on Saturday and by Sunday afternoon, they were all swinging!
They were so incredibly happy!
Thanks to the best daddy and uncles around.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
 Sky and I took our parents out to eat for Mother's and Father's Day at Iggy's and it was delicious and I loved being with all of them.  Even little Halle came that day.
 And she took the pictures for us - haha.  Can you tell?
This one was much better and she did a great job!
I gave a little tribute to my mama in the May post so I'll do the same for my daddy.
I honestly have the best dad for me.  Growing up, he was the greatest example a girl could have - he served in the church with all he had, he never missed a meeting, I knew he had a testimony of the gospel and I knew he loved Christ.
Now, as an adult, he watches my kids at least once a week for me while I work or need to go somewhere.  He never complains when I ask him to help, my kids adore Papa Dougie and he loves them beyond words!  I hope he knows how great he is and how grateful I am for his example as a child; it has shaped my life!

OUR DADDY
The kids were super excited to serve daddy breakfast and couldn't wait to see his reaction.
*French toast and apples*
Spence got a new hat, cologne and workout clothes.
Oh how they love and adore their daddy!
What a sweet moment to capture with he and Rio.
Happy Father's Day to these kids best daddy ever!
He is their best playmate, their favorite musician, the ultimate humor machine and they absolutely love him.  We really would all be very lost without him - I love to watch how much they love him - it is the best feeling!
And this guy...
Oh Ranger!  What a wonderful man he is!
His life was quickly filled with many, many grand kids and he was sort of "forced" to help and watch these little rascals!
He has surprised us all at this love, devotion, example and humorous fun that he has with all the grand kids.
And of course, Bonnie gave her boys a gift as well.  She is always so thoughtful and wants her kids to feel special - she's proud of them and who they are as daddy's.
Let the party start!
Spencer often plays "the red barron" for this crazy crew and they just love it!
There he is!  The Red Barron!  Fun daddy isn't he?
Happy Father's Day to all the Father's in our life!
We truly are blessed to be surrounded by such great men and priesthood holders.  I'm so grateful for their example, love of Christ and love for their families!
