In honor of Father's Day I have to give a shout out to this amazing man. I grew up as daddy's little princess, my dad would drop everything and be there for me the moment I needed it. When I ran track in Jr. High I would get super nervous before every race. At one track meet my dad had told me ahead of time that he wouldn't be able to make it to the meet, which I was fine with at the time. An hour before my race I was so nervous I felt like throwing up, so I called my dad just to talk to him. He asked how much time I had before the race, I told him about an hour, and he told me he'd leave work right then so he could be there. My dad was standing at the finish line when I crossed it having just run my best time of the year. Another time when I was a sophomore in college I realize at 7:30 on a Tuesday morning that I had left my iClicker (a little remote used to answer quiz questions in big lecture hall classes) in Kaysville. I had a quiz in my 9:00 Chemistry class that morning. I called my dad and he found it, drove 65 miles to get me the iClicker so I could take the 6 point quiz. I'm so grateful that I grew up with a strong Priesthood holder in my home and such a loving, fun dad. He's pretty amazing, and I love him!

I'm also grateful to this man who raised my husband to be the man he is today. Ray set a great example of working hard to support your family and balancing church, work and family life. Ben looks up to his dad so much, and I'm grateful he has such a great role model to pattern his life after.
Happy Father's Day to Reed and Ray! Granted, I've just met Ray the one time but he seemed very nice. As for Reed, he is definitely one of my favorite father figures. I would have told you to suck up the 6 points :).
