First Father's Day...

Happy Father's Day to my husband, best friend and daddy to my baby boy! We've been through so much together, but parenthood is certainly the best part of our adventure so far. I look forward to everything we have ahead of us. You truly are my soul mate and I can't imagine a single moment without you. Everyday only gets better and we have so much to experience with our Little Bear!

This little boy grew up to be an amazing daddy.....

Daddy,
Thank you for holding my hand

Thank you for watching me grow
and rocking me to sleep.
But most of all,
Thank you for loving my mommy and me so much!
Happy 1st Father's Day, Daddy!
Love, your Little Bear

For Justin's first Father's Day, Barrett helped me pick out some new cookware (he really enjoys cooking and had been asking for a new pan) and a grilling cookbook! He loves to grill, so I'm anxious to try out some of the recipes! Barrett was such a good boy Saturday morning, taking a long nap while Daddy was golfing, so I was able to make a breakfast casserole for Father's Day morning and this Oreo dessert!!
