To a Special Dad...
Happy Father's Day!
To celebrate Father's Day Adelyn and I took Jon to the horse races at Cantabury Park. Unfortunately we didn't win big but had a great time. I blew our main chance at the jackpot by telling Jon not to waste the $$ boxing our bet (allowing the two horses to place in 1st and 2nd but not designating which would be which) since we were confident who would be 1 and 2. Of course they finished flipped of what we expected and cost us the big bucks. Sorry honey. You really should listen to me less. What am I saying? Nevermind!
There was a mom and baby horse that you could get up close and look at, which was entertaining to Adelyn. Apparently they were close relatives of Barbaro even--wow! She was a good sport, staying in her stroller most of the time as long as we had graham crackers and raisins on hand at all times. I think I heard her tell Jon she wants a pony of her own some day. Better hit that jackpot next time!
We hope you felt spoiled on your special day honey. You deserve it! Adelyn is VERY lucky to have such a wonderful dad. You play fun games (tackle!), give sweet kisses, and even have some special magic to lul her to sleep (no, I'm not talking about your hockey stats conversations either). Thank you for being so awesome.

Mom, why did you say not to box them?

Daddy's little sweetheart! She is soooooo precious. I could never get sick of looking at pictures of the angel!!! I especially love the jockey picture. TOO CUTE! You did a good job on your picture captions, too. :)
Sorry you didn't hit the jackpot, but there's always next time, right???
love you and Happy Fathers Day Jon!
What a fun day! This would have been been Brenton's dream father's day. We are planning on hitting the races sometime this summer, we should all go together!
