Father's Day


We had a great Father's Day celebrating the wonderful men in our lives!

We visited Great Grandpa Breinholt.
He totally remembered Curt, but not the rest of us!

 We took him a "Creamy", which he loved and devoured in no time!

 Grandpa can't hear and won't wear hearing aids,
so Curt sat right next to him and yelled in his ear!

Curt asked him several questions, to see what he remembered...
He used to sell cars at Coulter Cadillac
The most he sold in one month was 27 cars
He knew that he was turning 93 on July 3rd
He told us the story of when he was riding his bike with a bushel of peaches in the front basket.
Something got caught in the spokes of his tire, and he and the peaches went flying.
He said he made Peach Jam!

 We sure love this Grandpa of ours and feel so blessed that our children know him.
Pretty remarkable that Landon has met his Great - Great Grandpa!

 Love these men of mine!
Bennett is sporting the Father's Day gift that he gave to Curt.

We enjoyed dinner at ET & Kristin's.
All the awesome Dad's in the family!
(We missed David who was in San Diego, so Cash stood proxy for him!)

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

Father's Day

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!
Love this guy and the great Dad that he is!
(Curt wearing the traditional photo tie...he receives a new one each year with a different picture)
Haley came home last night and asked, "Where is everybody?"
With Tia married and now Cassidy at BYU, this is what's left at home!
These children came fast and they are leaving fast and it was hard then and hard now!

Bennett is a great little note and letter writer.  
Just an example of what we have received over the years!
A parent's pay day for sure!
This really is what being a Dad or Mom is all about!

Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all that I have called "FATHER"...Couldn't ask for a better father for my children.
He is a wonderful example of all the things I try to teach my children daily...

Curt loves his work and no matter what his job, he has a passion for it.

This guy knows how to play hard.
Ultra competitive doesn't even come close to describing him in a game or competition.

Curt loves people. It doesn't matter the social status, religion, culture, or the language, he just wants to get to know them. He seriously makes friends EVERYWHERE he goes.

I don't think there is a piano recital, game, swim meet, parent teacher conference, awards assembly or church talk that Curt has missed his children participate in. He loves his kids!

He honors his priesthood through his leadership and love to us and to those he serves in whatever position he is called.

Each year, one of his gifts is a photo tie with a picture of his kids.
He, as well as the kids, are always surprised to see which picture he will proudly display!

The tie wearing tradition has come a long way.
This was what he sported in 2000, just 9 years ago!


My dad...
What do you say to the man who loved you, raised you, taught you and still to this day continues to do all those things through his example.
My father-in-law...
The sweetest, most humble and gentle man you would ever want to meet.
We see so much of our "Grandpa Chuck" in Curt. It brings us comfort and many a laugh as we realize "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree". We miss you, Grandpa!
To all these men...I LOVE YOU!
Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day




We were able to celebrate Father's Day with some great Dads! My dad, my two brothers E.T. and David, and a wonderful husband. Curt was home from church in record time, so he was able to sneak in a nap before he opened his gifts. A very timely gift of new pajama bottoms (his old ones have a huge hole in the back) and a cute plate for the dresser to catch all of his "stuff". We had our usual Sunday Dinner which has grown to 29 with the addition of Kristin's sister, Anna and her husband Sean and their family. We all love getting together and it was a great day to honor the men we love.
