Best Father's Day Gift Ever

A few days ago Jeannette asked what I wanted to do for Father's Day.  There wasn't a specific activity, but there were specific parameters:
  • I don't want to do any work.
  • I don't want to drive anywhere far 
  • I don't want to have to deal with Chicago traffic.
So we went to church, went to lunch, came home, and I got to take a 2 hour nap.  Best. Day. Ever.
This morning before church Baylee realized it was Father's Day and insisted I open my gift right then. She was not going to wait till after church.  So the gift bag came out of the closet and inside I found...


Yes, I finally have my very own gnome.  I've always joked with Jeannette then we got our own place that I was going to get a big gnome for the front yard.  Guardian of Casa Moss.  We have our own condo now - so this is our city gnome.  My fam rocks!

Now we're heading out to take the kids for a walk and get ice cream, a great end to a great day.

Happy Father's day to...
  • ...my dad, Roy.
  • ...my step-dad, Tom.
  • ...my grandfather, Papa.
  • ...any my father-in-law, Jim.
  • ...my brother-in-law, Vince 
  • ...my step-brother, Tommy
  • ...my uncle, Mark
Also a Happy Father's Dad to my buds who are dads: Todd, Josh, Micah, Luke, Kevin, Matt, Jeff, & Pete. 

And most importantly, thanks and my love for these kids who call me daddy, something that NEVER gets old:

Sounds like it was a great day. I gotta get one of those gnomes.
