Fathers Day!!!

These are the only pictures I have from fathers day, sorry I know but I think my head was somewhere else that day.

For Fathers Day this year I wanted to do something really nice for Gabe. He has lots of things he wants to learn or do here in hawaii and I wanted one of them to actually happen but I didn't know what he wanted more. So I finally picked one and got it all set up and actually didn't tell him:) (I am really bad with keeping things from him) So Fathers Day morning I got the card all ready and waited for him to get up (I was very excited)/I woke him up. I gave him the card and waited..... big smile! I got him a private surf lesson! He had to wait a few weeks to do it because of things going on and so I had it for July 9th. (this last sat he had it, no I have no pictures from it because the girls and I were at home for nap time. But he had a great time and I already told him we will get him a surf board for his birthday next month.) Well to go on with our day, we went to church and it was just like any other sunday or so we thought. I was in feeding the baby when Gabe come and got me because someone from the stake pres needed to meet with both of us:/ We both don't know what for and were trying to think what it could be about. We get in to the room and he starts talking to us about family and how important family is and putting them first and so on, this went on for like 10 mins, we still don't know why he needed to talk with us yet. Believe me when I say, I was about to go crazy! Finally he gets to the point of all this.....Gabe was asked to be 2nd counselor in the bishopric! We both said yes and for the rest of church we couldn't stop thinking of it and just everything that it would mean for us. Well anyway, the rest of Fathers Day went good, we called and talked to our families and told them about it, had a nice dinner and day together as a family.

And to my wonderful husband:

I love you so very much and are so thankful to have you in my life. You are a wonderful dad and a great husband. Thank you for all the hard work you do for us and for being who you are. And you are doing great in the bishopric:) I love you Gabe!!!

Something funny about when Gabe was set apart, the stake president was talking about Gabe (he wasn't the one that called him, it was one of the counselors) and how he didn't really know him but lookforward to it and all that. Well then he was talking about what the counselor told him about meeting with us. He said, "You should have seen his face!" Talking about Gabes face when he was actually asked. It was so funny and you really had to be there.
