happy father’s day!

Today we went to my Dad’s house to celebrate Father’s Day with the entire family. Dad was in the hospital a few weeks ago with chest pain and ended up getting a stent before he went home. It makes today all the more special, as we thank God for Dad’s recovery. Any time we visit […]
