Happy Father's Day, Part 3-My Dad

Big number 29-enough said.
Mom and Dad right around the time we moved into the "new" house (1981). So so much better than the four room house with no doors in Dunlap...


Merry Christmas...(Peter Christmas...) 2009-29 Christmases together-Mom, you are a patient woman.

Happy Easter-1982



Putting up the fence is the blurb that I have on the back of this photo...but I'm not sure there is much work going on here...This is probably around 1981 as well.




Holding Paul David-I think this was when Paul was baptized at St. Vincent de Paul in Peoria.

I loved Sarah's post for Dad for Father's Day, so I decided to go on a scavenger hunt for old photos. I didn't have to hunt too long-I have been pretty good about organizing my photos over the years. And my old photos are only in a couple of different albums. These are some of my favorite photos from way back (probably because I took many of them.) I even had a few of them labelled and I remember most of the others. Happy Father's Day, Dad! Thanks for all of the life lessons! We love you!
One of the things that amazes me is how each family sort of invents it's own language based on the personalities of the people in it. Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there!




Happy Father's Day, Part 2


We love you Daddy! Thank you for being such a great part of our lives!

Happy Father's Day!



Happy Father's Day, you crazy Clint Eastwood impersonating fool! Hope you enjoyed your pancakes and sausage links this morning. We love you!
{Of course-these are MY pancakes and sausage, because I was too busy cooking them when I was doling them out to the menfolk. And I started with the homemade recipe-which reminded me as soon as I poured the batter in the skillet that I hate it...I quickly threw it away and made the "Complete" (ie-just add water so you can make thick fluffy pancakes) version. They were much better. Hope to remember this for previous years. It's been a while since I last made pancakes!} I hope to have a scrapbook page coming soon. But right now I think it is time for a nap.
Happy Sunday!
