Father's Day 2010 at the Westerhold's

At our house, we don't really make a big deal about Mother's Day, Father's Day or Valentine's Day.  We both think that the idea of these days are great but shouldn't we be loving, kind and respectful of each other all year long?  Shouldn't we always appreciate each other?  So, we don't really go all out on these celebrations.  We usually just give a card and then the respective parent gets to choose what or where to eat on that day.

This Father's Day started off with letting Gaga sleep in until 9:45, which never, ever happens around here.  We gave him our cards and then he was in for a rousing game of Trouble with the kiddos.

Of course, we had to have some World Cup soccer action on in the background.

Kanin wanted to lay down with Gaga and Caleb got jealous so all the boys were on the couch together.

Mama and Papa came over to have lunch with us and then they headed back home.

It was SO hot that the kids wanted to do the waterslide.  Even Sweet Baby Caleb didn't mind getting in the water.  Of course, Daddy was right there to play with them and make sure that no one got hurt.

Daddy played so hard that he needed a little break.  I'm thinking a hammock might be a good gift idea.  LOL

I LOVE this picture of two of my men.

Later on in the afternoon, we had friends over with their kids and they played and played.  The Mommy's watched the babies and the Daddy's had Daddy time and played cards. 

It was such a sweet, simple day but one of the best.

Here's the best Daddy that I could have ever chosen for my children!
