Dad {mentor example friend hero protector}




Pat and his dad's father's day cards were made very late this year - Saturday about 3 pm - right before we were having Pat's side of the family over for dinner.  As the saying goes, better later than never. That said, I knew exactly what set I wanted to use for his dad.  I love the Verve Plain Jane that I used for the background as well as the dad sentiment. The sentiment certainly does the talking on this card.  My card uses the CAS(E) this Sketch and Verve Diva Dare Inspiration.

Here are a few shots of the cousin gang from Saturday night.  Pat's brother Mike and family were in town for a lacrosse tournament this weekend.  Just like last year we were up early on Sunday to go to Connor's games.  Pat didn't get the benefit of breakfast in bed like I did for Mother's Day. The cousins had a great time playing wiffle ball and many other games together.
