Father's Day & Old Traditions




Chris had a great second Father’s Day this year! We BBQ’d some yummy ribs at our house and all the kiddos played while we watched and laughed. We also introduced an old tradition by giving the kids paint brushes and a bucket of water to “paint” the wall in the backyard. Probably from the time I was two, my grandpa would let me “paint” the wall in his backyard. My brothers and I would spend hours with paint brushes, rollers, and squirt bottles just “painting”. As we got older, we would stand in front of the wall and get hosed down to leave our silhouettes on the wall. It was great to watch our little ones continuing the tradition. Madeline has “painted” every day since Sunday…
