Father's Day


The Boyd Family
Colin and Hunter are feeding the fish. Papa is showing his talent in skipping rocks. He has always been an excellent "rock skipper".
The boys really thought feeding the fish was fun.
We came back without any bread left. Those fish ate well.
Colin and Evan hanging out while the food was cooking.
Evan will be walking before long. He has really masted holding onto things and walking.

As you all know, Adam and I love to people over to our home. For Father's Day, we decided to have everyone over to Meemaw's house and host lunch. With much help from Annmother and Nannie, we pulled it off. Chad jumped at the opportunity to hang out on the farm. So, Chad, Sara, Colin, and Evan joined us. Aunt Wendy got to spend some time with the kids. It is always good to see her.
The lunch menu was really simple: hamburgers, hot dogs, bratz, grilled veggies, potato salad, baked beans, chips, coleslaw, and a wonderful banana crunch dessert. After lunch, we took a trip down to the pond to feed the fish. We asked Hunter what the fish eat when he is not feeding them, he said, "Nofin. I have to feed them." (I love when he says, "nofin".) It was good to spend the day with all of the Dads in our family. (We missed you Donnie, but know you had a great day with your little man.) Our Fathers were wonderful models for us growing up. Thank you Douglas and Daddy for loving us unconditionally and modeling what a great Father is.
