Daddy!

It is kinda crazy to think that 12 years have past us by... I feel like we just moved to Parowan, and I was the new girl in school! This time of year always brings up the old and good memories of my Dad! Going to Danielle's to get ice cream, going on four wheeler rides at the dunes, riding horses and the buggy! Whatever it was it always seemed to be a good one! I am still not quite sure why my Dad was called home way to soon, but there must be a good reason! I was talking to Tony the other day about him, and it always makes me so sad. Tony never got to meet him, never knew his sense of humor, or his chuckle when he laughed! Never knew where I got my love for ice cream or being out doors. He didn't get to ask my Dad if he could marry his little girl...We both felt his spirit at the temple the day we got married, I know he was there with us, but it still isn't the same! Tony should have been grilled by him and in order to whisk me away as his wife! I just hope that we will be able to make some memories together with him, when they do finally meet. My Dad was a great guy! He loved EVERYONE, even the bums on the street! He was always serving people. I remember how much I hated going to peoples houses on the weekend to clean their yard or help someone move, because my Dad offered my families help. But now looking back those are some of the fun memories. Everyone loved him for that! He had a great sense of humor! He was always making people laugh or messing with them. I think that everyone who ever met my Dad will never forget him. Twelve years ago today he was called home. I know he is in a better place, and was needed for something, but boy oh boy can I just tell you how much I miss him and his hugs! I love you Dad, can't wait to see you again!
