Our Dad--Father's Day

Rusty has a few faults, but none having to do with being a dad. If he starts to faulter, he is ALWAYS open to how to do it better. I especially love that he loves to provide for our family, never acts tired, leads us in daily scripture study (most days), plays tea party with Molly, listens to Meg's drama, trains with Ben for his upcoming triathlon, has ALL the same favorites as Sam (one of them being that their favorite color is purple, and the second favorite color is orange), and still will teach my kids how to cook and clean. Those are just what I'm grateful for today.

Sam showing his gift, and notice that the #14 is on the package (their favorite number).

Sam's tribute to Rusty made in "Veggie Straws."

Yes, Molly's package is a tie box, but Rusty really did want one this year.

As always, Ben has a hard time really giving the full kiss.

p.s. I love and miss my dad (Grandpa Thompson) today as well.

What a nice Father's Day Rusty had. As you know, I was driving to Utah without Matt on Father's Day. We made it up to him last weekend!
