Lunch at the "Tank"

For many weeks the Daddy has been working on a huge project on the hill in Nibley. A 2 million gallon water tank has "huge" qualifications, even in the Grange family. We girls are very pleased with the project, not only because our DJ is completely capable of heading such a feat, but also that he is near by and we can do lunch with him often.

Today, after preschool, the girls and I went to McDonald's and ordered 2 Happy Meals with apple dippers, a McRib extra large, and a Southwest Salad. We took the fair to the "tank" site to have some Daddy time.

The girls love this. Especially me. It's hard to have a husband that works like a mule! Please don't mistake my remark for ingratitude. I am in awe of the way that he cares for us. So unselfishly. He is determined to do whatever it takes. And it takes a lot, physically and mentally in his line of work. There are always trailers to load and tires to repair and calls to make, schedules to coordinate, and plans to review, and a whole pile of difficult people to work with, injuries, cold, mud, filth. . . . I could go on! And when you are the boss, you carry a continuous weight on your shoulders. He handles it so well. Rarely are his feathers ruffled. And when they are he forgives, solves the problem, or works like crazy to make it right. Words are inadequate to express my love for him, and my constant gratitude. He awfully good looking too, I hit the husband Jackpot!
