My Daddykins!

I have had a chance to think alot lately about my family and the importance they have been in my life. A month or so ago, when I graduated, my Dad wrote in a card, about the special bond that is between a father and a daughter - and went on to let me know that I have made that relationship with him so special. I have really been thinking about that and how important it has been for me to have my Dad in every aspect of my life, and for him to approve of the things I am doing. He has always been there for me and has believed in me. He has always made things so special and fun. Even when I was little I was given the nickname "sweetness" from my dad and it has been used ever since. Growing up he always came to my dance recitals and I never heard him complain about having to sit there for hours and watch a bunch of boring dances. He always told me how well I did and more importantly how "proud" he was of me! He always made sure I knew how much he loved me - even when I would get in trouble for breaking curfew - he would come down and make sure that I knew he loved me. We have shared some fantastic times and I just wanted to show you some of my favorite pictures of my Dad wearing his many hats!

I LOVE YOU DADDYKINS!!

Super Dad! (He has the plastic to put on the ground so my wedding dress wouldn't get dirty - now that's dedication!)

I also want to thank my amazing father-in-law! I really couldn't have asked to marry into a better family! Ladell has been such a great support to us and has always made me feel like I am so special!
