Father's Day

This weekend was a big weekend for Jason - his first Father's Day and his birthday all in one (Well, almost. His birthday is actually tomorrow.) To try to let him know how much we love him, we tried to make this weekend all about him. Friday night, we went out to dinner at Applebee's (one of his favorites) and ended the night watching Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, part of the box set that we gave him.

Yesterday was just a beautiful day. After getting some things done around the house, we headed out to Grand Haven to enjoy the afternoon. We had an early dinner at Snug Harbor and then walked the boardwalk out to the beach so that Jason could fly his kite. Unfortunately, Hannah had a bit of a meltdown on the way there, so he never actually got a chance to get it in the air. Thankfully, Hannah fell asleep in the car on the ride home, so since she was peacefully resting, we swung through DQ for dessert. First ice cream stop of the season. Yum!

This morning, we went to church. For the first time, we dropped Hannah off in the nursery. From what we hear, she did great. We didn't get a page to come pick her up during the service, so she must have done well. We did a few errands after church, including a stop at Boaters World where Jason picked up a couple more birthday/Father's Day gifts for himself, and then we came home and grilled out some awesome porterhouse steaks.

Of course, we can't let this Father's Day go by without giving thanks to mine and Jason's dads. We weren't able to spend the day with them, but we did both give them calls to let them know that we were thinking about them. We are so blessed to have wonderful dads (and now grandpas!), who have been such great role models for us. Thank you for all that you've done and do for us. We love you! Happy Father's Day!
