This year we gave Connor some yummy treats because he was the "Top Pop" of the year- well every year really!
Every year we repurposed an old tie for Connor. I mean don't you think this looks WAY better than it possibly could have before...
(Sorry for the bad photo, my bathroom does not lend itself for a good backdrop late at night.)
Every year we repurposed an old tie for Connor. I mean don't you think this looks WAY better than it possibly could have before...(Sorry for the bad photo, my bathroom does not lend itself for a good backdrop late at night.)Every man wants a tie with D.A.D., fringe, jewels, and Googly eyes ...
I wish I could shrink down to the size of a pin and take a ride on Connor's shoulder so that I could take in all the comments he gets from wearing such a marvelous creation!
I wish I could shrink down to the size of a pin and take a ride on Connor's shoulder so that I could take in all the comments he gets from wearing such a marvelous creation! Yes, we love our daddy! From what I gathered from my kid's answers to questions for Father's day, they all love to wrestle with him and Dylan also loves to have Wii time with him. I know Kamryn is instantly soothed by just the sound of his voice, there really is nothing sweeter than a dad with his infant in his arms! Connor never fails to get down and play hard with his kids. He is an amazing teacher and friend to them. He is always willing to play even the most tiring games with them. They all fight over sitting by him at dinner (sometimes I wonder if they realize I am in the room.) I am excited to see him in action in the future and also very comforted because I know he will be amazing!
I also have a wonderful Dad of my own. Sadly, it took me about 18 years to finally realize what an amazing man he was. I feel like I wasted so many moments and opportunities with him. He is very intelligent. We often tease him because he knows words that none of us have even heard. But he was the best one to go to proof read our papers. I am grateful for the example he has set for me. I can not even count the many times he has been up for all hours of the night out helping someone in need, without a single complaint. I know he has done this for me as well. He provided a wonderful, spiritual and safe home for me to be raised in. I never doubted his love for me!
Thank you, I love you both!

Love this. I have to admit I noticed Connor's tie at church and did a double take thinking, "does his tie have fringe????" If I would have known that it had googly eyes, too, I would have just laughed. It's AWESOME!
What a neat idea! I love that Connor has the guts to wear it (I'm not sure Duston would go for it :) That is a fun tradition.
Sweet tie! Connor is a lucky guy. :)
What an awesome idea!! I wish i could repurpose some of reid's old shirts i can't stand. I bet he is the bell of church in that tie. how fun! I crocheted reid a tie this year, it was nice.
Sorry, Lady, but I think that has to be the most hideous tie I have ever seen. You are so thoughtful though, Connor is lucky to have you.
I love the tie! That is a great idea and I like play on the word "pop". That is cool that you recognized the Gowans from my blog. What a small world it is, especially in Mormonville. ;)
Props to Conner for wearing that tie. That's awesome!
