Fathers Day Weekend - Part 2

We continued our Fathers Day celebration on Sunday by heading to Neosho after church to spend the afternoon with each of our family's. First, we went to Matt's parents house where we enjoyed a yummy lunch to celebrate the fathers on his side of the family. After lunch, the boys wanted to go out and swim. Daddy and Grandpa took them outside to take a swim.

Grayson is not too excited about the big pool for some reason, he prefers his little pool. Notice the floaty's that he inists that he needs to wear - hey, safety first!

Daddy, Lance and Grandpa beating the heat and enjoying some time in the pool.

Next up was my family, we headed over to my parents house for dinner. Mom fixed a great summer dinner. It was a pretty low key evening - we ate then went outside and watched the boys play, it was a great evening.


Me and my Papa - love him!


Lance showing off his two-wheel bike skills! He is very proud that he has shed the training wheels and mastered riding his bike on two wheels. Another sign that he is growing up waaay to fast!

Uncle Paul, Blake, Papa EB, Dad and Grayson - some special guys!



Papa EB, Papa Danny, Lance and Grayson - Lance was thrilled to have his picture taken, can't you tell?!


Blake and Lucy - Lucy is the newest member of our family. Such a sweet dog!


Mom, Mama/GG, Aunt Debbie and Papa EB - some pretty special people in my life!


Dad and his new girl, Miss Lucy.



And the day would not be complete without a little work on the lawn mower - the boys loved being big helpers!




We had a great weekend celebrating Fathers Day! I have been so blessed with some wonderful fathers in my life! I have a wonderful husband who is a great Daddy to our boys - I could not have asked for more. My Dad, Father in Law and Grandpas are huge blessing to our family and great Papas/Grandpas to our boys. I am so thankful to have such wonderful examples for our little guys as they grow up!
