Although our Fathers are no longer with us. We think of them and what kind men they were who helped raised us.

My Dad and me May 1952
Happy Father's Day!
Jen visited us yesterday to help me get caught up on some of the high dusting (the things I have to stand on a step ladder for) AND to visit with her Dad and she took us out for supper!

Well done Jen! I am not so safe on a step ladder these days. Is that Far Guy’s grandparents in the framed photograph? Have a good day x
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to have a special day to remember our parents, even when they have passed on. I often think of my dad and how different life is now without him. Lovely that you were taken out to supper :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful memories...

Nice!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice Father's Day!
We are just going to be quiet and enjoy the day.
Happy Father's Day. Your dad looks very much like my grandfather on my dad's side. I think it's the hat.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures.
ReplyDeleteGeorgina, No they are not, the photo was taken at a brother and sister in laws home and they are the sister in laws parents.
ReplyDeleteHappy Father's Day to Far Guy, and to all the fathers in your family.
ReplyDeleteYou have such wonderful memories (and photos) of your fathers.
Love the pictures.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Jen.
We celebrated Father's Day on Friday with Tom and I cooking dinner for the family: ribs, cornbread, grilled asparagus, fresh fruit compote, fresh figs with goat cheese and honey, and rhubarb cake.
Today we are on our own. We'll visit a garden and go for a walk somewhere.
Happy Father's Day, happy memories to you.
Lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteHappy Father's Day! :)
Nice old pictures from the 50's.
ReplyDeleteHappy Fathers Day
Happy Father's Day, FG!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, I miss my dad so very much
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos and I'm so glad Jen helped you with the high stuff. I always did that for Dennis's Mom. She's only 5'1" and I'm 5 '10".
ReplyDeleteWe had a wonderful lunch today with Mandy, Brad & Piper. And Brad's entire extended family. Parents, aunts and uncles, cousins and other grands. We ate at a tiny bar & grill in Malmo, NE, an equally teeny-tiney town about an hour away. We had a great time and just got home.
While driving, both of our boys called and face-timed. It was wonderful.
We do still miss our Dad's though, especially Dennis's Dad. He was one in a million and I can't wait to see him again in Heaven. Dennis takes afer him very much.
Blessings,
Betsy
Nice tribute to the dad's. I like the 1950's photos.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that your daughter visited. I love seeing those old photos.
ReplyDeleteShe is such a great daughter. How was their trip? It sounded fantastic. I didn't have a good dad or a good step dad but it warms my heart to see how many good ones are out there. Happy Father's Day, Far Guy!
ReplyDeleteLove your old photos and the memories that they bring! Great Father's of another generation!
