Fathers Day 2009

Boyd and Dale Lake
Father's Day 2009

For Father's Day we had a big Family Dinner. We wanted to celebrate Boyd Lake and all of the fathers in our family. We had three of Don's brothers (Blaine, Brace and Bryan) and their families as well as three of Don's children (Scott, Val and Brent) and their families. We had quite a group (about 30) and it was so great to see how well everyone gets along. All of the kids were having a blast and the the adults enjoyed visiting with each other. The older kids would look out for the younger ones and the young adults, well, let's just say they love to hang out together. Our backyard worked well. We brought our easy up canopies and tables from work and it turned out very nice. 

Don took pictures of the kids with Grandma and Grandpa Lake and then took family pictures with them as well.  Some of the kids were missing, but they turned out really good. Here are just a few.

Happy belated Father's Day, Don! Looks like you all had a wonderful day. And it looks like Michelle was in her element--preparing a big meal and get together for everyone! And I know (since I know how well she does these things) that it went off without a hitch! We miss you guys, hope you are all doing well! Thanks for the cute card you sent us. It was so fun to get (but of course it made us miss you more!). :)
