Father's Day

Father's Day was busy at the McMurtrey house.  Byron and I got to speak in church and Byron got to teach Elder's Quorum all on Father's Day.  I tried to make it a nice weekend by making some of Byron's favorite foods.  We had Sausage Fondue for breakfast and I made Corn Bread to go with our lunch.  I made other "favorites" too...but can't recall them a month later.

The best thing about any holiday these days is how excited Ella gets.  It doesn't matter if it is a major holiday or a "not so" major one.  This Father's Day she had a secret project she was working on.  She requested a large piece of cardboard.  I got one for her and then wasn't allowed to see the secret until Father's Day.

It was a Father's Day tree.  I thought it was genius.  I love the homemade gifts so much and Byron did too!  Byron---we love you and are so happy that you are Ella's Dad.  Byron is responsible for how well Ella reads.  He volunteers in her school classroom.  I love watching him be a Dad.  Happy Father's Day to you.

Ella wrote a song for Byron---Dad's Song

  2. Love, love, love the Father's Day song. Every year for my birthday I request original poems and songs. Those are my favorite gifts.
