It just so happened that our last weekend before deployment was also Father's Day. We were all happy that Tommy was here for that special day so he and the girls could spend it together. Saturday morning we decided to brave the winds and spend some time at the beach. The girls love playing in the water!! Caroline got a little cold, but other than that it was fun.
We went to church Father's Day morning. The pastor invited us up to the front of the church and had a prayer for us before Tommy deploys. Then everyone came down and hugged us and wished Tommy well. It was an emotional time and made it all so real. I am thankful for our church and appreciate all of the prayers. After a nice lunch outside at Tijuana Flats (Lyla's favorite after church restaurant), we took some pictures outside. It's always a challenge to get a good picture with both girls in it. They just won't look at the same time. That night we ordered dinner from Maggianos, one of Tommy's favorites. It was a nice, relaxing Father's Day and we were so thankful to spend it with Tommy. We wish we could've seen our Father's on this day, but we called them and it was nice to hear their voices, and we saw them the weekend before and gave them their gifts. Thank you for being great Dads!
