dual personalities

I wanted to do a father’s day post. At first I thought of reminiscing about my own father, but my dual personality has pretty much covered that for now. Then I thought of doing something current, but I do not have immediate access to a scanner so can’t scan in the really embarrassing choice photos. So we’ll just have to settle for something prettier, if more mundane.

As I was looking through the photos I do have on the computer, I came across our most recent trip to Banff, Alberta. Here’s the happy couple, taken when I was still speaking to him.

Right after that photo the hike took an upward turn and we climbed and climbed. I accused my hubbie of trying to kill me. He knew I was out of shape and didn’t want to go up a mountain — I was very out of breath and thinking that I was soon to drop dead of a heart attack. But the husband is a patient man, who knows when to ignore his wife.

The scenery was spectacular. My mood lightened and we didn’t meet any bears, just smaller uber-friendly wildlife:

The way downhill was easier

and at the end of the day, we were exhausted, but happy, which just goes to show you that “Father knows best”!

You can tell this was a few years ago — boy #3 is now as tall as his dad!

And if you can’t get out with your dad/husband this father’s day, take some time to remember a good time you have had with him! HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!!
