Celebrating wonderful fathers

Just finished another busy Father's Day weekend. Last night my sister and family came down to Portland, and we went to Mom & Dad's house for stir fry (and pizza for the kids). Here's my dad--under the blanket with Nick--as the cousins are arriving.

The more boys, the more fun!
Today started off with Mike going off to church to deliver a Father's Day message at both services--talk about sacrifice! He talked about his wonderful father and the other men in his life (notably my dad and our brother-in-law, David) who have also been great fathering role models for him.


Then we went to Mom & Dad's for a chicken curry lunch and to continue celebrating the dads. Fortunately the weather was nicer today, so the boys could play outside (always a blessing with six boys)!

Nicholas loves his Uncle Stephen!
We're all delighted to be seeing more of Stephen lately

(and we're losing Nick...)

No hope of corralling all three boys for a photo with Dad,
 but Kieran obliged!
