Celebrating at the Beach

 

The Saturday before fathers day we took the whole family (plus Renee’) out to Lake of the Pines to celebrate in the sand & sun.

     

Covered in sand we then made are way out to the water to cool off a bit.

    

Donaven & Renee got pretty adventurous and swam quite a distance out from the beach.

 

But don’t worry Brandon was close by keeping an eye on everything.

 

When we first got to the lake the weather was perfect. Blue skies and beautiful!

 

After a few hours these ominous thunder clouds rolled in and it started lightning so we rounded everyone up and headed to the car.

Even though it was cut short we still had a fabulous time hanging out at the beach together!

Fathers Day

For fathers day this year we got Brandon a gun safe. He went and picked it out and brought it home the week prior to fathers day. I still wanted him to have something unexpected on Sunday. The boys and I went out to Micheal's and bought the needed supplies. A white shirt, freezer paper, and fabric paint. I looked online for just the right image that Brandon would appreciate. A fun jeep with huge tires. Using a freezer paper stencil tutorial and our collaborative effort this is how it turned out...


Happy Fathers day Brandon! I love you and I am so thankful to have you to be the father of our children. Thank you for putting the boys to bed even though you still have a lot of work to do. Thank you for being patient and teaching Donaven new things. Thank you for giving Emerson your undivided attention and just holding him when he needs his daddy. Most of all thank you for sharing it all with me. I'm the luckiest girl ever!

Here are my guys on fathers day. Sorry about the clothes-less baby....
