ATE'S DAD WAS HERE A FEW WEEKS AGO AND TOOK ON OUR NEGLECTED DECK AS HIS PERSONAL MISSION. HE ORDERED NEW SLATS TO REPLACE THE ROT AND STAINED IT. I HAVE TO GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO PAT. HE IS A GOOD GUY. DEANN OFTEN SAYS THAT THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT HE LOVES HIS CHILDREN. NATE OFTEN TALKS ABOUT HOW HE WOULD COME PULL NATE OUT OF SCHOOL TO GO SKIING OR HIKING OR SOME OUTDOOR ADVENTURE IN MONTANA. THE KIDS OFTEN TELL FUNNY STORIES OR PERDICAMENTS THAT THEY GOT INTO WHEN THEY WERE OUT AND ABOUT WITH HIM.
I AM CONVINCED THERE IS NOT A MAN ALIVE THAT COULD KEEP UP WITH NATE'S MOM, DEANN. HE IS A GOOD MATCH FOR HER. THEY HAVE THE ENERGY OF KIDS. WHEN WE SPEND VACATION TIME WITH THEM I HAVE TO COME HOME AND REST.
WHENEVER PAT COMES TO TOWN I TRY TO STOCK MY FRIDGE WITH GOOD YOGURT, SANDWICH MEAT, A VARIETY OF CHEESES, RED PEPPERS, UNIQUE MUSTARDS & A GOOD SELECTION OF BREADS. I KIND OF LIKE TO SPOIL HIM AND MAKE HIM GLAD HE CAME.
SO THIS IS MY ODE TO PAT, THANK YOU FOR RAISING GREAT CHILDREN AND LOVING LIFE. YOU ARE A GREAT PERSON AND FRIEND.

Seriously, that's awesome that when your parents come they fix up your place. Pat is a great dad. I've heard a lot of the funny stories and I'm always impressed that he can also laugh at himself along with the kids. I guess, what else can he do? Glad you hear you are spoiling him!
What a cool tribute to Pat. He seems so quiet that I feel like I hardly know him. Your deck looks awesome, he did a great job!
