Daddy's Retirement Party at his Work

Do you think they are happy or what?  This is daddy and Sarah, who have worked together forever.  They both are retiring at the end of this year.  Sarah works at the branch here in Atlanta.

Last Thursday we drove up to Spartanburg for daddy's retirement party given by the people at his office.  We had a great time visiting with those folks that we have grown up knowing.  We had lunch in the office, and then had dinner at a restaurant in Spartanburg.  It was such a great time.  I am so blessed to have such a wonderful daddy who has worked so hard to provide for his family.  This is so well deserved.  He is the best, sweetest, hardest worker I know.  It was so good hearing all of the great things that his coworkers had to say about him.  I think the biggest compliment was hearing his salesmen calling him "dad".  That is how he treats everyone!  I am sure they are going to miss working for "dad".  It was such a bittersweet day, but we are sure glad to have him for ourselves now.  Daddy is such a handyman and his first project is building 2 treehouses for the boys.  He is building one here and one at Mason and Kim's.  He has talked about these tree houses forever.  They are going to be the coolest tree houses ever, I am sure.  We are so proud of him and so excited for him!  We love you daddy!
