Celestial Family

We took some pictures outside today, and as we were all being tormented, we got this great picture with us being translated. We opted to come back down and deliver a message that God loves all of us, and that we all need to keep working to make the world a better place.

Ok, maybe that didn't happen, we really aren't perfect (yet) but it looked neat anyway. Today was Father's Day, and the kids and my wife were really nice to me, with the great cards that they made for me, and the tie that you can't see in this picture. I was a bit dissappointed that they didn't have any special treats for the fathers at church, except for the primary children singing songs about fathers.

We went over to my parents house to visit my dad, and to celebrate the June birthdays, and my dad sure does get spoiled. He got a new computer chair, a chess game, the Silmarillian, and drill bits. Becca said it felt like it must be my dad's birthday with all the gifts going around. She isn't used to that, and says that small gifts are best. I don't remember it being that extravagant when I was younger, but I didn't think it was too much. Are gifts too much for Mother's Day and Father's day? I suppose that it is nice to receive gifts, but the nicest presents that I got today were the cards that they spent time on for me.

Becca was trying to get Macey to look at her and smile, but she would only look at me and smile :) Sometimes she is a very happy little child, but it goes quickly to ornery when she gets tired, hungry, poopy, or is not being held. She is pretty easy to please, as long as she is being held, and none of the other three items is bothering her, she is as happy as can be. And isn't she just a cutie when she smiles.
She really looks so small in this picture, but she has grown a lot in her first six months.
