Golden Father's Day

It was an extra-special Father's Day this year, at least for Clan Martinez. Harrison was baptized on Sunday, June 21, 1998 - which also happened to be Father's Day. This is the first time since then that Father's Day has fallen on June 21, so we decided to dub it Harrison's "Golden Baptism Anniversary".



no surprise - not many people at church for the 9am service
(Dad's Day plus a special 10:30 service at a sister church)


Harrison helped me demonstrate how a yoke works to ease the burden of a heavy load (Matthew 11.28-30) for the kids' message

Julio had a hankerin' for chicken schnitzel,
so in keeping with our "Yoke" theme,
we headed to the Amanas for lunch at the Ox Yoke Inn


we spent a few hours at home, then gathered at grammy & g-boy's for movie and game night


rarin' to go


after watching "Ghostbusters" it was time for Trivial Pursuit Jr.


HD cleaned our clocks


Julio & Harrison took some time to discuss political cartoons before bed

...and another awesome Father's Day was history. Hope yours was as pleasant as ours!

From the looks of Grammy's picture... I'd say she should have just gone back to bed!!
It was a FUN day... and the food was delish!
