Father's Day

I'd say Jeff was pretty spoiled on Father's day (kidding). Although, with it being the day after my dad and step-mom's wedding anniversary party, he spoiled me by letting me sleep in (as much as you can anyway with 9am church). That afternoon we had a grad party to go to for Jeff's cousin, so we didn't even eat dinner at home. Seriously, best. Father's. day. ever. Right, Jeff?

Father's Day

We had a pretty quiet Father's Day this year. We went to church, like always. The Primary kids sang to their dads. Mason went up to the front of the chapel, with some help from our friend Crystal who is in the Primary Presidency. Mason stood in front of Crystal the whole time with a somber look on his face. I wasn't sure if he would even go up to the front but I was sure that if he did, he wouldn't sing. I am proud of him for just going up.

After church we went to my parents for root beer floats. We were going to go to the park, but the weather was yucky.

I got Jeff Glenn Beck's new book, Common Sense. It should arrive sometime between today and Thursday. I know, I know, I should have thought about ordering it sooner, and I did, but that thought didn't become action until abut two days before Father's Day. Jeff knows I am like this, every year I don't do any Christmas shopping for him until just a few days before Christmas, while he's had all his shopping for me done well before Thanksgiving. It's just the way I am, Jeff knows this and loves me anyway.

We love you daddy and are so proud of everything you have accomplished.

Happy Father's Day II

We had a great Father's Day, we were able to spend time with both of our dads.

My family went to Shadle Park, we enjoyed some root beer floats but I think the kids enjoyed playing on the toys most.

I hope everyone had a great father's day!

Happy Father's Day

I wanted to wish all the fathers a Happy Father's Day! I especially want my husband to know how much I love and appreciate all he does for me and our two boys. I also want everyone to know how wonderful Jeff is, so I have an example I would like to share about just how wonderful he is.

Last night was a rough night for us here at the Borders household. Cooper went to bed around 8:00pm. Jeff and I watched a movie and then went to bed about 11:20pm. I could just about feel myself falling asleep when Cooper woke up at 12:00am wanting to eat. So as Jeff usually does, he got Cooper up and brought him to our room so he could nurse. After he nursed for about a half an hour I took him back to his crib. Usually he will go right back to sleep, but last night he decided he didn't want to go to sleep. So he began to cry, I would have just let him cry, but with our current situation of being in an apartment, I picked him up and rocked him for about twenty minutes. He finally fell asleep, so I put him back in his crib. I just about got out of his room when he began to cry again. This time I decided to let him cry for a bit. I went back to my room and laid there waiting for him to fall back to sleep. Well, he didn't go back to sleep, so I got up again, went to his room, and rocked him untill 3:00am when he finally did fall asleep.

I went back to bed, Jeff said good night to me, I replied with, "there is nothing GOOD about it, because Mason will be awake in four hours!".

Sure enough Mason and Cooper were both awake at 7:00am and Jeff got up with them letting me sleep until close to 9:00am. So even though it is Father's Day and Jeff should have been the one who got to sleep in, he thought of me and how tired I was and got up with the boys.

This is just one example of what a wonderful husband and father Jeff is. So thank you Jeff for being a wonderful husband to me and father to Mason and Cooper.

Happy Father's Day Jeff
