Fathers Day and More

Ok, I feel really bad that I didnt post anything about Fathers Day. For Fathers Day we had originally planned not to get Jesús anything because a couple months before we had bought Mario Kart with the extra controller and that was a lot of money. We originally decided it would be our Mothers Day Fathers Day joint gift, but guess who plays it the most? Yeah, not me. So Jesús went and bought me this beautiful iPod doc alarm clock Well Jesús was thinking that he wasnt going to get anything for Fathers Day but I surprised him. Sunday morning we got up in the morning and started our normal routine of getting ready for church and I didnt make him breakfast or anything because I was tired and had started getting Strep throat and was feeling yucky. After church he had a home teaching appointment so Patrick and I went over to my moms and Jesus took off getting his home teaching done. When he came back I had Patrick drag this huge bag over to him and this is what was inside.
I was crafty and made this apron for Jesus. He loves to cook and his old apron has holes in it so I thought is was time for a new one. So I stenciled the letters and put Patrick's had prints on the pocket.I also got him a small cooler so he could put all the fish he is going to catch inside. He has recently taken up fishing and has a really good time. Im glad he does it because it gets him outside and enjoying the outdoors. I also got him a new butcher knife from a restaurant supply store since our knives from our wedding are dull and sucky now. We made sushi with it the other night. Big hit!
Jesús is a wonderful dad and I am so excited to see him with his daughter in a few months. Patrick loves him and asks where he is every morning.

I also wanted to post some pictures that I pulled off my moms camera. I havent posted any pictures because I still cant find our camera charger and I dont want to use up the battery.Here is Mom and I on Mothers Day. We ordered a beautiful Lei from Hawaii for her to wear for as long as possible until it wilted. She loves getting Lei's from Hawaii and she goes there enough she's practically a native.Here is Patrick and Grandma on Mothers Day. He is doing his version of shaka (if thats how you spell it). These are his new sunglasses that Grandma bought him, he's tells us that he is cute.This picture is of Patrick and I on our trip back from Sara's graduation. It was pretty hot in the motorhome on our way back through the desert and Patrick woke up from his nap pretty scared so I went and layed on the bed with him for about another hour. I like this picture because he never sleeps on us anymore.Here is a picture of our entire family from a couple of weeks ago when Ben and Janae came to see us the same week Sara was here.Here are the original Six and dont worry Cory wasnt high or anything.And here are Patrick and Caleb playing the piano wearing the matching shirts that Aunt Sara bought them.
