belated daddie's day

we were in bear lake for father's day this year and so i didn't get around to blogging about the number uno papa in my life, my husband. lest he forget how much i luff him and respect him as a father i will remind him in this post.

i love this man SO much and i loved him even more when he jumped at the chance to match his 3 year old. jude has had this shirt for about 2 years and when jude and i saw it we knew daddie needed one to match. another one of trevan's obsessions is star wars and he has definitely passed that gene on to his clone jude. 

trevan's gift for father's day (besides his wader's & t-shirt) were these dog tags. i had them made with the kids names and birth dates on them. i think he looks adorable in a little man jewelery and he loves wearing them. 

oh, and no, one of them is not copper, its just the light.

dear senor,

i knew you would be a great dad. i knew you would love our kids. i knew you would always provide for us. i knew you would have patience. i knew our kids would love you. i knew you wanted this life. i knew we would have a great time raising children. i knew you would always be a worthy priesthood holder. i knew you were strong. i knew this would push you harder than you thought. i knew we would laugh. i knew you were a work in progress. i knew you would make darling babies. i knew your finest role would be that of a father. i knew you could do this.

i knew all of these things, i just didn't know how much more you could be. thanks for never letting us down. thanks for loving us. thanks for being such a wonderful father. thanks for being ours. 

you are my favorite and my best.

xo,

me
