Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day Dad!

Harlan, Ryan & Graham at Ryan's batman themed birthday party in college.

I was a little early when I wished you happy fathers day over the phone a week or two ago, so here is round two. I have never blogged before... but I thought this was a good one to start with.

You are the "best" dad in the world, and I just want to say thanks for everything. It would be a long list if I tried to name each thing I am thankful for over the last 26 years, so I will just name a few.

Thanks for...

Life
Teaching me how to farm
Encouraging me to think outside the box
Supporting my head while I slept on long combine rides as a kid
Blowing up M80's and tennis balls on the 4th
Introducing me to my faith
Working so hard daily to provide for our family
Being there whenever I need to talk
Playing trumpet in the band
Pointing me towards DU
Always believing in me
Singing Christmas carols with me while running at 5:30 in the morning
Laughing so hard on the golf course (sand greens)
Setting an example for marriage

I could go on forever Dad. You really are the "best" dad in the world! Thank you and Happy Father's Day. Love you!
