Happy Father's Day

Happy 19th Father's Day Dan. We had a fun day! We went to church in the morning and then came home and had some tasty burgers for lunch. Dan opened his present from the kids(a lantern) and then we spent the afternoon together doing things outdoors. First we took a drive where we stopped along the river to try out a spud gun that Dan had used at a men's gathering awhile back. We knew that the one we borrowed wasn't working the best but we tried it anyway. Dan went out and bought some new flints. We were excited when the first potatoe went flying across the river but our excitement didn't last long. It only worked one more time so we just saw two potatoes fly. I think it was all for the best though because Jordan wanted to aim his potatoes at the boaters on the river and I don't think that would have gone over real well. We skipped some rocks and decided to hit the road. At home we jumped into our pool and relaxed until Jordan got us going in a game of keep away. Dan, you are a wonderful father to our three children. They love you and admire you! Next month Dan will celebrate his 47th birthday and his 20th anneversary of being a dad. That's right! His first born child and son, Jordan, was born on his birthday...almost to the minute. He has me to thank for that. I was ready to give birth the day before but I held off pushing for 24 hours so we could have Jordan as close to this birth time as possible. Okay, so you don't believe me. But they really were born only eight minutes apart. Dan on July 8th, 1960 at 9:48pm and Jordan on July 8th, 1987 at 9:56pm. We thought it was pretty cool!
