Father's Day

Don't have much time tonight, but wanted to say how thankful I am for all the Dad's in my life.  Yesterday, Facebook was FULL of sweet posts about Dad's and all the mushy ones brought tears to my eyes as I think of Shawn and how amazing he is with his 2 princesses.  Also, it was fun to reminisce growing up with my Dad; the motorcycle rides, the camping trips, the early morning fishing trips, playing basketball outside after dinner, etc.  I had a great childhood and now I have a pretty great adult-hood as well.  I love the men in my life!  

We took Piper and Lucy to the movies for a matinee of "Inside Out" yesterday and it was Piper's first time going to a movie theater!  She walked in and saw the big screen and said "Whoooooooa!" Haha, it was cute!  The movie was adorable too- I even cried twice! 
The rain kept us indoors almost all day until l the sun came out at dinner time.  It was a relaxing day for all :)

I did want to paste this into my blog though.  My dad had the sweetest facebook post ever and I want to remember it.  It truly made me cry and I know all 5 of us kids felt pretty special reading it:

"This Father's Day I woke up to a beautiful sunrise overlooking the Pacific Ocean and palm trees at the Ritz Carlton in Kapalua, Maui. One of the most beautiful places on earth. But here's the thing, I'd trade it in a heart beat to go back in time for a morning to five little kids climbing on my bed to give me cool hand-made gifts of the highest quality. My kids have always been pearls of great price and I will treasure them always." -Mark Smidt

Happy Father's Day guys :)  You are loved.
