Happy Father's Day!

One of the boys favorite things to do with their daddy is ride bikes. They go up to a "mountain" and see an "ant house" which is really a huge termite mound. They love it. Dawson loves getting to drink daddy's special drink- gatorade. :) They have a blast. Since there is only one seat on the bike, Brett takes Dawson first and then comes back for Kenan. Kenan screams as he has to wait for his ride and is so excited when they return so he can go.

I love that Brett takes the boys on these rides. It was on one of these such rides that he talked to Dawson about going back to preschool last year. After that talk, Dawson was willing to go. I was so amazed. There's something about that ant house and getting special time with daddy that makes everything ok.

So in honor of father's day, here are picks from their ride on Friday.


Ready to head out.


at the ant house



and for the next boy



he just looks so cute to me here


and here too...





and this is the difference between dads and moms. daddy will let you play IN the termite mound. pretty cool.


and poor Silas doesn't get to go on rides yet so here's just a pick of the two of them together.


happy daddy's day!! (or as dawson called it all day- happy valentine's day). the other day as we made cards and such for Brett, Dawson insisted on making black squares (construction paper completely painted black) for daddy for valentine's day. :)

and to my dad- thanks for always loving me and putting up with us girls growing up! thank you for always supporting us and encouraging us in what we felt led to do. I love you!

  1. Hey Guys,

    Great Father's Day pics. Riding the top of the car and now the termite hill, what's next? You guys are adjusting much faster than I would. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY Brett. :) Now we definitely know why God gave you three boys.
