Happy Father's Day!

First let me say, "Happy Father's Day" to all the dads out there. My dad passed away almost 2 years ago now and I still can remember all the fond memories of him over the years! He was such a special man in my life. Always there to lend a helping hand to whoever needed it. He was thoughtful, kind, caring, and funny. He loved his grandkids too! Happy Father's Day Dad! I love you and miss you!
Now my hubby, Bill...well he too is a GREAT dad! He loves our girls very much! He is loving, caring, playful, and fun! I don't know what I would do without him here. I am truly blessed to have such wonderful man in my life who is a very special father indeed. So today I decided to plan a family fun day packed with things that Daddy and the kiddos would love. Grandma and Grandpa K. came with us too. Here are some pics of our exciting day at African Lion Safari!

Lily loves to wear Grandpa's hat!


Daddy being silly with his camera rain protector!?




In the van waiting to get in to see and feed the animals!


Hey Mr. Llama what's up?




That's one hungry Longhorn!


What do you mean that's all I get?


This SUV was ahead of us through the safari...let me just say these people must have bought stock in carrots! They had an endless supply it seemed and they were not shy at all when it came to the animals. This giraffe at one point stuck it's head completely down in the sunroof of that SUV. Wish I would have caught that on film!

We had an awesome time despite the rain that fell. We enjoyed an ice cream cone there and we even got to see pig races! Too funny! On the way home we topped it all off with an excellent dinner at the Roadhouse. All in all a very fun family filled day! We love you Daddy!
