Hurry Home, Dad (& Happy Birthday!)

Quotes heard around here the last few days:

Taylor: "October 20th is going to be the BEST day!"

Aubrey: "Okay, that's it. I'm really ready for dad to be home."

Hannah:" Mom, I cried in bed last night when I pictured daddy tucking me in."

Jack: "Mom, I think I can't remember what daddy looks like."


Yep - it's time. WE MISS YOU DADDY!!!!!
















... and happy birthday today too!

Sweet tribute to Dad. I miss my dad too while I'm away at school. And Mom too of course. And Mary. Heck I miss everybody.

That is so sweet! I bet October 20th can't come fast enough.

What a great post and I love those pictures. What an amazing person, and an even better father.

What beautiful pictures! I love the relationship that dads have with their children. It is truly unique!

What a fun post. When most people buy houses they get an extra room for the "office", "guest room", etc. Your's will have to house the photographs with the kind of rolling files they have in Dr. offices. Nevertheless, a beautiful post! I'm glad my grandchildren have the kind of dad (and of course Mom) that they do.
Love,
Mom

Yep, I think that last picture with all the kids, chip & the funnel cake has got to be my fav. First of all, GREAT GREAT picture of all the kids, especially the girls (very pretty). Taylor & Aubrey look quite grown up...watch out chip & tracy. ;)
Second, LOVE that funnel cake. Isn't it just the best?

I can't believe how long you have lasted without him. I hope the time passes quickly.
