Happy Belated Father's Day!

So, I just realized I haven't posted in almost a month. I don't really know why, b/c generally I have some free time throughtout hte day and I sit at a computer all day.
but nontheless, I have been slacking. I missed posting for Father's Day.
So I want to say a Happy Belated Father's Day to my dad, also to Matt's dad as well.

We spent Father's Day with Matt's Dad, b/c we spent Mother's Day with my family.

But I did send my dad a card and giftcard, so he would get it by Father's Day.
He is such a great dad, I have never met anyone so dedicated to his work and staying late and doing extra things at work, just to make sure the job gets done.
He has always been a great handyman and can fix and build just about anything.

One thing that comes to mind alot is something he did for my wedding.
He made these awesome, "structures", as we called them, for my wedding reception, I will post a pic for you to see what they are.
He spent so many hours putting these together for the big day, and they turned out wonderful.


I could go on and on about how great a dad he is.

Dad, you're the best!










Here are two shots, one with the lights and one with the lights off, to see the full effect.
These were huge PVC pipes for the circular base, with strings of Christmas lights running up to the top, and all meeting together attached to a giant ring, there was a huge one that hung over the food table and little ones hanging over the smaller tables.
We also wrapped the base in tulle, to cover the pipes.

The pictures don't do justice, they were so much prettier in person.
