Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day!

We sure are thankful for this guy!

I can still remember how concerned he was when Wyatt was born about caring and loving 2 babies.  Fast forward 9 years and now he has 7 children who adore him and he is doing a great job of loving them and being patient and even learning to enjoy all of the shenanigans that come with such a full house.  Though we often reflect on how truly full every aspect of our life feels right now I can't even imagine it any other way.

We love you and are so very thankful for all you do!

We're thankful for the big things and maybe even more so for all the everyday things that make our life what it is.

Wyatt's card had a secret message that Daddy had to decode by coloring over the white crayon with a marker.  Very sweet and creative!

Brandon really enjoys grilling for our family and it's become a big part of our routine so I picked out this sign to hang on our back deck and we got him a basket for grilling/smoking vegis.

We braved our first outdoor church service on Father's Day!  I mean what better way to celebrate than taking all 7 of your children out and trying to keep them quiet for an hour.   

In all seriousness though they actually did really well and it was good to be with people again.

This was kind of a silly gift but the kids had fun making it.  It was a shirt with a map of  "Troyerville" on the back.  The idea is that the kids can take turns driving cars around on his back giving him a little back rub.  Probably a little more relaxing for a Dad that doesn't have 7 kids but what can I say.  We try!
