Happy Father's Day!

Greg opening his gifts. I got him (us) these zero gravity chairs. I had gotten him one several years ago, and he wore it out. These are jumbo size, and much more deluxe! So comfy!
Looks like the grandkids aren't the only ones who like riding the horsey!
Even 6'5" Uncle "Goo" rode the pony.
A pretty picture of Gennifer and Claire.
Doesn't Claire look like a fresh picked Gerbera Daisy from the garden with her pretty hair bow?
Hannah helping Geeps bbq.
The Dad's relaxing.
Noah riding Geronimo. Yee-Haw!!!
Nothing like bbq'd burgers on the grill. Simple dinner tonight for us. Burgers, fresh watermelon and Lays chips.
Look at Noah eye balling Hannah's plate. And don't think she doesn't have her eye on his every move either. I believe she is thinking, Noah, you touch my watermelon and you are going swimming buddy!
Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's. I sure thought about my Dad today. I miss him very much, but I found myself smiling several times today just thinking about things he said and did. Greg and I talked about how much we miss our Dad's. Grove was Greg's Dad. He was such a wonderful man too. We are both so lucky to have had such amazing fathers. Though we miss them, we have so many great memories of them, and of Father's Day past.
Jeremy, we missed you tonight.

Thanks for the great food and great times, as always! The grove is looking so nice. You can definitely see all of your hardwork. Cute pictures.

Fun day! The pic of Genn on the horse cracks me up, very funny. Looks like the fathers enjoyed their day. Do you have any leftovers?

Hi everyone,
Yes it was another fun family day here at Grover's Grove. Even Greg got on the horsey to check for durability. And I did NOT grab my camera fast enough!
Kris, lots of leftovers! We are heading over to splash park in a bit with the Hass girls, then eating leftovers, then looooong naps for the kiddos...I hope!

Looks like a great day. I missed my daddy today too. We are lucky to have had them. Love to the Grovers and all those daddys out there.
