Normally we wouldn't have made the trip over to spend it with my dad, we would have just talked on the phone and mailed him cards and presents but since my brother's death last month I felt I really needed to go over there and spend it with him!! So me, DH and the kids hopped in the car Sunday morning and headed over to Ohio.
We really had a great time and so did my dad!!! We cooked out and roasted marshmallows (and yummy s'mores) and my parents live on a farm so my 3 little ones helped grandpa with his turkeys and the cow and they helped him just do all kinds of "out door" stuff. He was so happy. We had a nice time talking about my brother Jeff and looking at all kinds of pictures of him. The only "sad" part of the day came at almost bed time...we were all outside around the fire and my dad spotted something in the air...as the minutes passes we see these balloons come floating down and tied to them is a Father's Day card. In it some "kids" wrote how much they missed their dad and how much they loved him and thanked him for watching over them everyday. It was so sad and so sweet and I think it really hit my dad kind of hard ![]() ![]()
