Father's Day...a weekend away

This year we celebrated Father's Day in Palm Desert with my family (only 40 something of us...and that is only half of my family...hehe). My dad turned 70 this year and he wanted to celebrate it this weekend. So we all headed out to the hot desert and had a blast. The lazy river was perfect, the kids enjoyed themselves SO much, swimming, relaxing, playing with their cousins. It was a perfect weekend. Not to mention on Sunday we celebrated daddy! I mean sitting by the pool by 9am in the hot sun doesn't get any better. Saul we love you and you ARE the BEST daddy ever! Your kids are so lucky to have you home with them as much as you are. You are nothing but extraordinary, loving, fun, funny, good looking and all around the greatest dad ever! Thank you for all you do for our family. We love you SO much!! And to my dad, who has always been the greatest dad to me. He is so loved by all of us and is the best Papa! We love you dad/Papa!

Oh I wish I was floating on this lazy river! See you soon LR, I promise we will be back in the near future!

Father's Day...Palm Desert

For Father's day this year we headed out to the HOT desert for the weekend. It reminded me of being a kid as we always did this every year for Father's day and so we have started this tradition with our little family. We had a great time swimming for hours in the pool, we shopped, ate and most of all just relaxed (it was only 109 degrees!) The hubby deserved a weekend getaway and he enjoyed it very much. The kids are at a great age right now where they enjoy being away for the weekends, they love sleeping in hotels sleeping in the same bed, going out to eat and just being somewhere different. I am so proud that my kiddos have an amazing daddy who loves them so much and is the absolute best dad in the world. The laugh, play rough, have tickle games, play soccer, have lunch dates and snuggle with each other. He adores our children and they adore him. Being a father isn't easy, but it is sure rewarding and he should be a proud daddy for raising two little ones that show respect, love, kindness and are both silly as ever. Saul we love you, you make our world complete! Happy Father's day! and to Papa who means the world to our kids as well, you make being a Papa look like so much fun. We love you!

Thanks to little man Ethan we can actually have pictures taken of the two of us...he did a pretty good job, centered and all!

This is from Taelor....and her drawing of how Dad looks....so cute!!

And this is from Ethan...I love that his answers..."I don't know" and "very"

And yes, it was 109 degrees outside but we enjoyed every minute of it!!

Happy Father's Day!

Father's Day

I know this post is way past due.....

I am so glad I get to celebrate my wonderful husband as a Father as well as my own Father. These are two of the greatest men around. Saul has so many qualities that my dad has and I admire both of these men so much.

Saul- you are such a wonderful Dad to Taelor and Ethan. You show them so much love everyday and they adore you. It makes my heart melt every time I see you snuggling with them, hugging and kissing them. I have seen you grow into the best gift of all, being a Dad! You cherish your children and take care of them to the fullest extent, you have the biggest heart for them, you are their role model, Ethan even says sometimes that he is going to be a Daddy like you when he gets bigger. I love who you are as a dad and my husband. Thanks for being the best dad, a dad that helps out always, with no questions asked. Thanks for being their hero and thank you for making me a mom! I love you!

Dad- you are an amazing man, you are always there for all your children and family, your grandchildren adore you and love you so much. You are so special to me and I cannot express how much I love you. I have so many fond memories growing up and I want to thank you for raising me to who I am today. You have admirable qualities and such a kind heart for others. You will always be my daddy and I will always be your little girl. I love you!
