happy father’s day!

Published by Mintyfresh at 8:10 am under miscellaneous

Mom gets a lot of blog-time, probably because she’s a knitter and she attends fiber festivals with me. But my dad is really awesome, too–he coined the catchphrase “2007: The Year of Erin,” and he’s just generally supportive and kind and interesting to talk to. I searched my archives and I’m sad to see I rarely take photos of dad–will have to start making up for that when I see him next! For now, Happy Father’s Day, dad!

And a special shout-out to my dear friend TJ, who became a dad on Thursday. The twins were born–early, but healthy!

    Aren’t dads great? You’ve inspired me. I’ll have to find a good pic of my dad to add to my blog for today.

    Very very sweet indeed :) I thought the same thing with my parents on my blog - mom gets more face time. Dads are great too :)

    Love the picture of you and your dad at MoMA in front of the Warhol!

    Dad’s are a good thing. :) They just don’t seem to make pictures too often. Hope yours had a great day. :)

    I think your dad and I have matching socks - perhaps knit in Lorna’s pinstripe colorway?

    Aww, nice dad collage! I particularly like that you included the photo of just his besocked feet.
