They picked me up and we drove to Flaming Gorge. My niece Kelly has a little girl, Madeline. She has the same birthday as my dad. Madeline turned two that day. (Cool, huh, that his first great-grandchild was born on his birthday). We called them (in Ohio) on our drive and had fun visiting with Kelly and Madeline.
We got to Flaming Gorge Dam and took the tour. I hadn't done the tour since my three oldest kids were quite little. After that we drove to Dutch John and looked around a little bit. We had a picnic lunch and then some more driving looking at scenery. It was gorgeous. It was fun to spend time with my Mom and Dad without my kids. It was good just to visit with them.
When we got back to Vernal, Becky and invited us to her house for a birthday barbeque at her house. I am mad I didn't take my camera over to her house to get a picture of Grandpa Pete and his birthday cake.
I am so blessed to have such good parents, and my kids such wonderful grandparents.
I hope you had a Happy Birthday Dad!!

I'm so jealous. Enjoy every minute with your Dad. I'm glad you got to spend the day with him.
What a wonderful day! I'm jealous, too! I didn't get Dad or Madeline on their birthdays! Thanks for blogging about it! I haven't been to Flaming Gorge since I was a little girl -- like when we lived in Powell or Billings!
