So we celebrated on Sunday.

Her favorite is Cafe Rio so we attempted to do homemade Cafe Rio with cookies n' cream brownies for dessert.

 We had the Johnson's over for dinner.

My Dad

He didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it. ~Clarence Budington Kelland

I have an amazing dad.
He is a great example to me.
He is kind, hard working, and has a sense of humor.
He shares his testimony by the way he lives his life.

All the grandkids and great grandkids love him.
He takes time to play with them and he loves to tease.

He treats my mom with love and respect.
 He is a patient man. 
Growing up he would take the time to teach  and explain things even when I am sure it would have been easier to do it himself.
Growing up I thought my dad could fix anything and make everything all better.
He was and still is my hero.
I love you Dad!!
Happy Father's Day!

Arizona

Dad, Mom, Gerald, Delaine, Peggy, and I make a quick trip to Arizona to clean out Aunt Nola's trailer. She agreed to sell it so it needed to get cleaned out.  We drove down Thursday, cleaned Friday and Saturday and drove home Sunday.  Over the past several years Aunt Nola has become a hoarder so it was quite the task to get it cleaned in two days.   Delaine and I became quite efficient in the sorting process.  We made numerous loads to the dump and DI. The utilities were not turned on in the trailer so that meant no air conditioning and no water.  Just another challenge in this adventure. I wish I would have taken before and after pictures.  Those in the court who saw if before and after said it was a miracle.

The highlight of the trip was a stop in Beaver for ice cream and squeaky cheese. (cheese curds)
We are all in one piece and still talking to each other at the end of the trip.
