when dad comes home

 Everyday when Zach comes home the boys run and hide somewhere, so they can jump out and say "boo."
This is literally everyday and they get upset if they miss him and make him go back outside just so he can come in again for the "surprise."
Then they usually run to hug him and often tackle him.

Sometimes a post-nap Gus just needs a little Dad love:

Who wouldn't be excited for this fun guy to get home:

Okay, he doesn't always have as much energy as these pictures might lead you to believe, but he does love teaching them how to be rough and crazy.

While on the subject of my wonderful husband, I will take a moment to brag that he is also a wonderful teacher.  Here is the proof:

 
That is right: "Summer School Rocka."  This cracked me up and also made me proud.
Zach loved it and was even able to put aside the fact that they used the word "are" instead of "our."
At least he can take solace in the fact that he doesn't teach them English.

We love you Dad! Thanks for all you do for us.
