I put all my dad's letters that he sent to my grandparents while he was going through training for becoming a P-47 Thunderbolt Fighter Pilot into a book for him to read for Father's Day.
The letters were put into acid free sheets then put in order and labeled at the beginning of each air field he went too.
Turned out the book was almost 7" thick. Full of my parents life for one year of their life when they were 20 & 23 years old. What a gift it turned out to be for me.
I actually celebrated my birthday Wednesday afternoon, Friday night, Sat. night and again on the actual day, Father's Day, Sunday.
One of the three celebration's. I'm so spoiled.Thanks Jana for the yummy cupcakes.
This is Ryan leaving our house on Sunday with his Handy Manny Tool Box. He never leaves home without it.
Father's Day/Birthday. Jessica made special french toast, fruit salad, scrambled eggs, and bought HEB cinnamon rolls. Jenny brought the whipping cream and made the bacon. Rod, Chesley and I watched and ate the wonderful meal. Stacy, Boo, Mattie Sue and Malyn too, you all were missed.
Jenny and I began our wonderful three days downtown at the Renovare, an International Conference Spiritual Renewal Sunday night. What an inspiring, eye opening memorable few days. We started off each day with me getting us each a Starbucks coffee and Jenny getting us an egg taco. We would meet at the corner of 281 & Bitters parking lot and get into my car and head for the Municipal Auditorium.
