Father's Day

Apparently, we don't like to be together as a family on days like Mother's and Father's Day. D-man was once again distraught that we weren't going to be with Marshall all day on Father's Day. Like him, I would have rather been together as a family than taking a 9 hour drive with two young boys across Nebraska. However, driving across Nebraska did mean that I was able to spend a few hours of Father's Day with my Dad which is even more special now than it was a few years ago.
We were able to celebrate what a great Dad Marshall is with a night out at Red Robin on Friday night and trip to the zoo with friends on Saturday before we left on Sunday. T-man also was able to celebrate with Marshall at the Dad's breakfast at his school - always a special event for the kids. And between the peppering of gifts throughout the week - beer can chicken holder, pepper shaker, laptop backpack, t-shirts, and travel mug, we made sure to let Marshall know what a great Dad he truly is. Maybe, just maybe, we'll get in that camping trip we always talk about for Father's Day later this year......
