Our Great Dad



Father's Day is a great day to honor the Dad's in our lives. We celebrated Stephen's special day with a yummy breakfast of Waffles covered with fresh peaches and whipping cream. It was yummy. After church we again celebrated the day with Stephen's all time favorite, chicken Parmesan, noodles, homemade breadsticks, Le Seur peas (These are from Stephen's childhood. They are basically puke green, soggy, squishy canned peas. The brand is Le Seur(sp) and the kids call them Sewer peas. We all get a laugh, except Stephen. He takes his peas very seriously. He only gets them on special occasions.) For dessert he requested a Grasshopper pie made from mint chocolate chip icecream. It was a tasty dinner. We thank Stephen for being a good Daddy. He loves his kids and wants the best for them. He takes good care of us and teaches the kids values. We love you!
Here is Stephen and the children with his Dad. His Dad is a quiet, but strong leader of the family. He is a spiritual man with a very strong testimony of the gospel. He has a great sense of humor and loves to laugh with his grandchildren.

  1. I remember the peas from the olden days. They were better than the regular canned peas. Just as long as they were not "killed" from boiling or over-cooking. Thank goodness for frozen foods.
    If I were starving, I would certainly eat them.

  3. So nice of you to update us all after 2 weeks, we missed ya. First of all, funny family you are, and I hate canned vegetables... yucky, sorry that you had to eat the sewer peas, but the rest of the meal sounded divine, I've never had a homemade mint whatever pie. looks like Easton got a haircut? It's cute.

  5. We (the kids and I) didn't eat the "Sewer Peas". Stephen had his own individual serving and we had yummy frozen peas.

  6. Sounds like a great day. I was out of town, so Craig and the boys had popcorn chicken and fries. They were all happy. I am having the makeup dinner this Sunday.
