Father's Day Rewind

We gathered at Mom Melin's house to celebrate Father's Day and Rich's birthday with dinner, cake, and gifts. Mom made roasted chickens and we all brought salads and sides. It was great fun. Uncle Mike talks to James as Uncle Davey looks on...Addie, Rich & Heidi are in the background.

Dad Melin opens his new LL Bean shortwave radio with hand crank.
Rich's father's day gift was an apron that says "I love the smell of propane in the morning", a bbq mit, a long basting brush, and laminated grilling tips.
We gave Dad Melin this Tshirt that says, "If you can read this, you must be at the diamond bar seven ranch!"
Rich blew out his candles (with help)...we realized we can use the 3 and the 6 for everyone's birthdays this year (besideds James)--Heidi is 3, Addie is 6, and Rich and I are 36 this year!
Rich also got a shortwave radio...he's very excited. I'm telling you, this is the place to be in a disaster. The Melin boyz are mad about preparedness.
Peek-a-boo, Heidi sees you!
Rich's birthday gift from us was this Coleman kitchen. It has a place for a sink, a little counter for your stove top, and racks to dry towels and hang a lantern.

Happy Birthday & Father's Day to the best Daddy in the world!

Way to go Melin boys! Always be prepared!

ps- My personal blog got a space on the coveted Melin Family links?! Awww, thanks Jaim! And in bold! That could just be because you put all your imediate family links in bold but I'm just going to pretend it's cause I'm EXTRA special!

Looking forward to Glacier!
