Happy Father's Day to my dad. I take after him in many ways: my stubborn streak, low blood sugar grumpiness, hoarding...just to name a few. He taught all of us kids to be hard workers, and although we tease him a lot about making us pick up rocks I know we are all grateful for the work ethic we developed. My dad is a great guy and I hope that when we get kids Nathan can be just as good of a father as he is.

What kinda rocks?
When we moved into our new house (I was 10) my dad wanted to re-do the landscaping in the back yard. We tore out all the grass and then leveled out the ground. We lived in the foothills and so the ground was VERY rocky. One summer we had to fill a five gallon bucket with rocks (to help level out the dirt) EVERY day as part of our chores. There were four kids (although I have learned as of late that my brothers CHEATED)...still, that's a lot of rocks.
Dad got all misty eyed when I showed this to him. He also said that next time you are in Utah, you could pick up some more rocks if you want...we have plenty!
LYT,
Mom
