Father's Day -- 2013

I was so excited for Father's Day this year.  I have been planning this since December -- not kidding.

I used the "Dad's Root Beer" theme idea from Pinterest (like the one I used for our YW Daddy Daughter activity) to decorate for the occasion.  We had 2 couples over to help celebrate the festivities.  We ate beef brisket, cheese potatoes, fresh strawberries from our guests garden, and root beer floats for dessert.  

But the most I was excited for was Nathan's gift.  I wrapped his gift and made a little tie with a handkerchief to make it "manly."

 Here is Nathan with the card that Hannah made (I had to help her make it).  I used her hands to create the front and back of the card.

And here is Nathan with his Father's Day gift.  I had a really nice poster board made with his priesthood line of authority, and I framed it.  I have been working on this since Nathan became a high priest in December so you can see why I was really excited to see him open it.  Thankfully, he loved it!
