Daddy daughter dates

Thad and Jacey have had quite the bonding time lately. Jacey has absolutely loved it. She absolutely adores her Daddy.



Anyone who knows Thad knows that he is obsessed with all things presidential. He loves the White House, the Secret Service, etc.... Anytime the President comes to town (doesn't matter which one) he HAS to go take pictures of air force one. So, when Obama came to the ASU graduation off Thad and Jacey went. She loved looking at all the airplanes while her Daddy obsessed about everything else :-) That same night Thad had been given tickets to the Diamondbacks game (Dugout seats) so they went to the airport, went to the ballgame and then went back to the airport. Yep, that's Thad for you. She loved the ball game as well and as soon as she came home she got out her baseball and bat and wanted to play :-)



A few days later our ward had their annual Father's and Son's outing. Who cares that Thad doesn't have any sons, he packed up Jacey and away they went. Lucky for Thad, he took JJ (one of the young men in our ward) with them. He came in handy when they got lost and drove around for hours. They ended up pulling over into some other wards camp out, staid the night and then found our ward the next morning. Once they got there they hiked down to the lake and that was enough to almost put Thad into cardiac arrest so they packed up and came home. Jacey was to afraid to hike down by herself so Thad had to carry her which led to his speedy exit home :-) Thad now believes me when I tell him he needs to get back into shape :-)

Wish I knew about the obsession earlier. We had six tickets in the stadium and one on the lawn for the graduation-he could have been RIGHT THERE. We ended up giving them away b/c Ryan didn't want to attend the commencement.
