Our Fathers

Happy Father's Day! We love our Dads! We are so lucky to have you both! Thank you for being the greatest fathers ever!

"My dad was truly a great father. I always remember him calling my sister and I his "little munchkins." He went to every single one of my baseball, football and basketball games. He taught me how to talk trash at Angel games. He never let me get away with not mowing the lawn...even if it was 9 o'clock at night. He taught me that good things happen to people who work hard. He always gave me tokens for the games at Shakey's. When I decided to go on subs, I know he was proud because he was also on subs. He gives a lot of advice. I never doubt how much he loves me."

My dad has always called me Peaches. He would give my brothers and I speech #1 (the Life is Not Fair speech) on a weekly basis. He always gave me a rose on Valentine's day since I was a little girl. He was also super gentle when brushing my long, thick hair because he always thought he was going to hurt me. He has always been supportive of everything I have done. He LOVED going to all my high school volleyball games and every single club tournament. He helped me fill out my Vanderbilt application and was there with me when I got my acceptance letter. He taught me to be a saver and not a spender. My dad never had a father. I know that he has spent my whole life putting his heart and soul into being the best dad he could possibly be and giving me what he never had."
