A day in the life...

Today is 93 degrees...my house is a balmy 86.....our air conditioning broke a couple days ago and I've run out of creative ways to cool the house. A couple windows are open, but mostly, I'm just sitting here...sweating. Craig knows a guy who works for a guy who shares the building Craig works in....who works on AC units. He's about an hour and a half late. (but who's counting?)

So, Father's Day was Sunday. Craig kidnapped me for an impromptu getaway Friday night, for our anniversary was Saturday, so I did not have ample time to put together a montage to the fathers I love... the first father I ever knew was of course my own.....I know how blessed I am to have a dad like mine. Some of my fondest memories are from my childhood...camping, boating, traveling, family vacations....my dad made sure we had wonderful memories. Scott and I are very loved and are secure, mature (well me anyway..
he he...kidding) because of the childhood we had. My dad loves kids...and we were the first! Thanks Dad!

My second experience with a father, really, was Craig. Anyone reading this doesn't need me to go into much description. Craig is the perfect role model for a dad. He excels at it. He's a natural. Craig would quit his job and be a stay-at-home dad if he could. He loves playing with the boys and looks forward to it, even after a long day at the office. He puts their needs first in every situation. I know I'm blessed to have a father such as he for my children. Thanks, Craig!

Here are a couple pictures and videos. We are off to Denver tomorrow night for a few days, then up north for the holiday weekend......I'll keep you posted on our adventures!

The video of Heath is reminiscent of me when the shades are closed and Kevin's in the other room. :)
