Happy Birthday to Dad!!!!!

Poor dad had to work on his birthday.

We got to spend the last 10 days with him....and then he has to go back on his birthday :(

All the kiddos got to say Happy Birthday and goodbye to him this morning before her left, so that was good.

But then after school and after dinner, we headed to the fire station with some cheesecake.

But Dad got moved from his regular station for a couple hours, from 5-8, so we visited him at station 14 instead.

The kids thought it was fun to look at new trucks and fun stuff there.

They thought hat the gym room was pretty great :)

We opened his gifts there....

Elsie made him a card at school, super cute.

Porter had a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle shirt picked out for both of them.

He has been very excited about giving them to him!

I also painted him a picture of the two of us for him to hang in his locker at work.

He has been wanting me to do a watercolor for him.....so I finally did.

He seemed to really like it  :)

Then we gave him a box full of Nerf guns and bullets.

We are gonna have a lot of fun with them when he gets home on Saturday!!!!!!

We love him so much and we are so glad we got to spend a little bit of time with him on his birthday.

He takes such good care of our little family and I am so thankful for him.

He always says that Birthdays aren't a big deal, but I think he had a good time seeing us anyway :)
