From that week at the beach (sorry, I couldn't find a picture documenting the hairy back)...he's the one next to me holding the dog...
I don't remember much from my childhood specifically. But I do remember how hard my Dad worked. When he and my Mom were married, he worked a full time job with the Federal Government, worked part time at various places (Pizza Hut and a Best Western just to name a few) and went to school part time. After my parents were divorced when I was ten, my Dad had my brother and I every other weekend. It's those weekends I remember. We took trips to DC, went hiking, and visited our Grandmother every weekend he had us. Those memories will stay with me forever.
My Dad has many, many years ahead of him. My Grandmother, his Mom, is still going strong. And my Dad and my Stepmom are building their dream house right now. And they definitely deserve it.
Happy Birthday, Dad!

My dad is only 57 and my sister is 37, so it's the same I guess. :)

Young parents were NOT good when I was in high school, they knew too much!
