Father's Day Interview, 2010


It's time for the annual Father's Day interview. How did it get to be June already?! I'm so far behind on posts... it's making me a little crazy. We spent last week on vacation in Fresno with The Sheriff and Auntie G. I've got about a billion pics to edit and get up from that trip, and then Frank had meetings and work stuff in Portland this week, so I'm staying in Portland with the girls this week. Sadly (or happily depending on your perspective), my parents are in WY visiting my new niece... who was welcomed into the world last week with much joy. I'm so excited to be an auntie!!! :-) So anyway, we're hanging out at their house this week visiting friends and family in the Portland area. And sewing. :-)
So, here's our second annual Father's day interview. Feel free to yoink it and use it on your kids too... so much fun to see what they come up with!!!
