My Dad

I feel like I miss out on so much not being at home in Utah, especially on days like this when I would love nothing more than to wish my Dad a Happy Fathers Day in person and tell him how grateful I am for him. So I guess I will have to let him know in other ways what an awesome Dad he really is.

10 things I remember about my dad (from when I was younger)

1. Going fishing- It may not have seemed like I was enjoying myself at the time, but now looking back on it I am really glad I was able to go.

2. Going camping- One of my favorite things!

3. Going to Air Shows- My Dad really loves planes and I really liked going to air shows with him. I also enjoyed going to the museum at Hill Air Force Base.

4. Going to the dump- I know this sounds kind of funny, and I think I only went with him a couple of times, but for some reason I liked going to the dump with my dad.

5. Going to the caves at Timp.

6. Going to the state fair- I don't think we ever missed the state fair. It's funny because looking back on it now I don't think that we ever rode a single ride or played any of the carnival games, but I still looked forward to going every year.

7. Getting Valentines from him- My dad had to leave for work very early when I was younger, but every Valentines Day he never forgot to leave a Valentine for each of us.

8. Him always pointing out the ducks- My dad loves duck hunting! Whenever he would see ducks flying by he wouldn't ever miss the opportunity to point them out and if we were really lucky he would maybe tell us a little duck trivia.

9. Watching him play Turoc- A video game my dad loved to play and for some reason my sister and I loved to watch.

10. Having long talks with him- They may have been few and far between but they were always great!

I love you Dad!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
