Father's

It is the last day of June, so figured I had better hurry and pay tribute to the great men in my life before the month is over! Father's Day is always a busy one at our home. We have so many great guys that we need to see, it is almost impossible to fit it into one day. This year Gavin's Dad Dennis had all the Frei Family come to his new home for a fun BBQ. Nick brought his guitar and played while the dinner was grilling. I think Grandpa and Grandma Frei really enjoyed having a lot of their family around them. Dennis really knows how to throw a party, he had steaks, and chicken plus shrimp skewers that were really good. It was fun for him to have a new home that will fit our whole family. All the kids can go downstairs and play ping pong and rough house while the adults can enjoy each other upstairs. It worked out great and was a good time.

We then headed to see my Dad. I love my Dad and don't know what I would do without him. Even today he saved my life, my car battery died last night. We figured this out at 10:00 pm while we were trying to leave Katie and Ken's house. Gavin left for Nevada at 6:00 am this morning, so my Dad met me at their house at 10:00 am today, took the battery out, replaced it with a new one and sent me on my way. Man, what would I do without him. He dropped everything he was doing and came to my rescue. I love him so much. 

Back to Father's Day, our last stop was to Ken's house. We are so happy, he is doing so well after his stroke. He is completely back to normal and going go get the little tiny hole in his heart fixed tomorrow in SLC. We are praying everything goes well and he can be 100% in a few days. We truly are blessed that he is here today. 

Last but definitely not least is the Father of my children, Gavin. The boys and I made him breakfast on Father's Day. They had a lot of fun, helping mix the Orange Juice and set the table. I want Gavin to know, he is a better Father than I even imagined. He loves each one of them so much and really spends quality time teaching them important life lessons. I love him and hope he had a great Father's Day, because I loved spending the whole day with him.
