Happy Father's Day!

Jeremy was gone all last week at camp, so the girls and I spent some time preparing for Father's Day. Technically, he already got his Father's Day/Birthday present when he bought himself a new iPod after his last one got stolen, but we decided it wouldn't be any fun to not get him anything. He's been wanting a fire pit for our backyard ever since we moved in, so we decided that would be the perfect gift. And what better to go with a fire pit than s'mores? So, he first opened a bag full of marshmallows, graham crackers, and Hershey Bars, followed by the fire pit. Tonight we spent the evening outside roasting marshmallows and enjoying the s'mores.

I am so thankful my girls have such a wonderful daddy. Even though he spent a long week at camp with very little sleep, he still came home and played all day with the girls. They adore him and both missed him quite a bit when he was gone. We had a couple of rough nights going to bed because they missed his tucking in. They love to wrestle with him and climb all over him.

Here's a picture of Jeremy with his girls, post-s'mores on Father's Day.

Oh man, a fire pit? Just another incentive for us to come visit you in St. Louis soon (as if the girls weren't reason enough)!
