Father's Day

We had a fun and relaxed Father's Day. I made sure Josh was able to sleep in, then we had breakfast and got ready for church. Josh's dad spoke in their ward, so we went to hear him speak. He did a wonderful job. We left and headed over to my dad's to visit with my parents. Here are my parents with the kids:
We then headed back to the Ericson's for a big BBQ dinner with Steve's side of the family. It was fun to spend time with all the Ericson's, especially Grandpa Ericson. Surprisingly, Brayden did pretty well with all the pictures I wanted to take. He usually refuses. Here's Josh with the kids:Josh and his dad with the kids:One picture I have always wanted to take but never have is a 4 generation picture. I was so grateful that Brayden cooperated and we got some really nice pictures.

I'm so grateful to be surrounded by such wonderful priesthood holders. Our grandfathers did a great job raising our dads and I'm grateful for the influence they continue to have in our lives. We are blessed to each have a dad that cares so much for us and our kids. And I am eternally grateful for the father Josh has become. Thanks dads for all you do!!!
