Today, we say Thank You to the man who always makes his family his priority. He is for sure the best Dad we could have asked for and loves his children unconditionally since day 1. These two are the luckiest to have you to love them, protect them and teach them most important lessons in life.

| D. and his baby girl D. and his boy |
He is always there for his children and misses them like crazy when he is out of town. He is the fun part of the duo, always making them laugh and ready to play. He is our rock, our protector, provider, and vacation planner. Derrick, you are the best and our hero.
Happy Father's Day!
Amelia and Elliot were excited to wake up their Daddy with their special cards they made for him at camp.
After a leisurely breakfast, we all got ready to watch the World Cup. Despite it being Derrick's special day, he went along with our charade of dressing in Deutschland shirts and putting hats and face paint on to cheer on my home country soccer team from afar.
Even though Germany lost the game against Mexico, we are not defeated. This is only the beginning of the Cup and it will be a good one. After nap time, Derrick got the idea of exploring a nearby beach at the lake. He just read about it online and figured, today is as good as any day to try it out. It was hot and the kids were easily convinced to go swimming.
After driving for 35 minutes, we arrived at the "beach". It felt like, we had arrived at the ocean, especially, since the kids kept asking if there were sharks in the water. The sand was a pretty color and very soft to the touch and the water was clean and warm. The spot we chose was not overly crowded either. Thus, the perfect way to spent a sunny Sunday afternoon.
My water babies were delighted and constantly in the water.
But not only the children enjoyed this spontaneous adventure, the adults were having a great time too.
What a blessing it is to have such a devoted father and husband and one who always comes up with the impromtu family activities.
