Father’s Day is this Sunday and Kelly is always so cleaver and fun in how he helps the kids celebrate me.
I sometimes feel like it is hard to surprise him and he buys the big things he wants anyways.
I’m happy with new Burt’s Bees lip gloss:-) Seriously, women are soooo easy to surprise.
When I saw this questionnaire on my sister’s blog I knew we would start with this.
My sister found the questions HERE.
We have a few things up our sleeves to celebrate Kelly and what an amazing father and husband he is but until Sunday this is all you are getting out of us:-)
Kelly,
As the children were giving their answers the clearest message they are sending you is that you make them feel so loved and so wanted. I love you for that. Thank you for being the kind of father that would rather be with us than anywhere else…..unless it is a burger restaurant. We know how we rank next to burgers and we are coming to terms with it.

What are you all doing to celebrate this Father’s Day?
(I think Kelly is hoping that I bought plane tickets to California and we head straight to In- N -Out)
“64 pounds”! “cries in his pillow”! love hearing from the kids. cute, jeanne.
Jeanne, this is priceless! My favorite was Benjamin saying he and dad had the same hair and face when they were little, ha, too funny! You have a beautiful family. Have a great time celebrating!
Kelly is a triple threat hero to his kids…how awesome is that! What is Five Guys? Isn’t it more than wonderful to know you are loved….and all of you know that from each other…Happy Father’s Day, Kelly!
five guys is a burger joint.
So sweet to read this. The personalities of the kids really come out–your oldest son reminds me of mine around that age (he is 38 now!). After seeing the Avengers recently I was REALLY impressed that his dad reminded him of Ironman! That is pretty cool!
I am laughing out loud as I read this, Jeanne! Cries into his pillow is priceless!
“Cries into his pillow.” had me cracking up 🙂
What a wonderful thing to do with your rugrats – I’m going to ask my teens these questions, and write them down for Larry’s FD card.
If you do indeed hit In & Out would you overnight a double double to Larry please – it’s the thing he misses the most about leaving California. I think even more than he misses the ocean!
I find the love between you and your husband so wonderful, and how you share it with all of us.
You constantly amaze and inspire me!
xox
Dang I love your kids. Such a special family you have. . .
Benjamins answers are so precious! Maddy is going to get a bit of her mothers humor huh? My hubby loves Five Guys too and my son loves it b/c there is a Sweet Frogs (yogurt) shop right next door…so guess where we will be Father’s day? Hope you all have a great day and don’t get into too much trouble!
I love this – what a great gift to dad – to get the kids to answer these questions and then type them up for dad!
Jeanne on another note I wanted to know when your class of building a creatively made business will no longer be available. I am registered and have been watching but I haven’t finished yet and I heard the video is only available til end of June. Is that the case??
End of July:-)
Hi Jeanne, just stopping by to visit your blog and I have learned a lot about your hubby. Apparently he loves burgers and bikes 😉 Sounds like my hubby.
I just signed up for your e-course and am sooooo very excited to start on Monday. Hope you have a blessed weekend with your family.
P.S. your hubby would be sad to know that I live right down the street from an In-N-Out. It is seriously not good for my girlish figure.
Oh I love this!!! So cute and funny.I love how they all have there own answers!I am sure you are all having a wonderful day!
(((Hugs))))
Anne
