Ode to "Dad"

It's a quiet relaxing Sunday here. Dad's just enjoyed a yummy special lunch and has retired to the couch to watch some golf and probably catch a Sunday cat nap or two. The kids made breakfast for him and have tried really hard to be on their best behavior. One Father's day tradition we have which started last year, is to give "DAD" pictures. Last year was our first year and so this year we updated them. I got the idea from Carrie when she shared it last year on an ebay board I was a part of. She has been doing them for awhile professionaly and encouraged everyone to show their own. Here is mine from last year:




and here is this years. awww! look how much they have changed! They will look great in Daddy's new office.


Happy Father's day to all the dads and men out there who have influenced our lives!

What a fabulous traditon!! I think I am certainly going to copy that one :).... they do look alot more grown up in the 2nd picture, especially your little girl. I also love the touch of the DAD letters!!

Awww I love yours!! So cute. I did that with my kiddos last year and it was so great. I didn't have a chance to do it this year. :( I may have to do it anyway after the fact just to have the year captured. Your kids have really grown in the past year :) SO Great!
