My husband is the best. Today is supposed to be his much needed day off, the first Friday in over three weeks where I wasn't planning to ditch him in order to go to work. Instead, he got up bright and early to go work for my dad. As you learned in my post earlier this week, we got a new dump truck and have a ton of work going on right now. When he volunteered earlier in the week to drive truck onsite for a day, I thought it was because: a. he missed working in construction, b. he wanted to make my dad happy, and/or c. he wanted a chance to drive that nice, new truck. So last night when I asked him what had possessed him to work outdoors on the hottest day of the year, his response threw me for a loop. He informed me that while a,b, and c are somewhat correct, he really wanted to work so that I could have extra money for my trip to California coming up in September (he's working on a prevailing wage job so it's pretty good money for a day of labor). What a silly, sweet man he is. I've already been saving all of our extra money, and will have plenty. He just knows how much I love to shop in Palm Springs and wanted to make I have an extra-fun time on my yearly shopping spree with my mom! Too bad I miss him and wish he was home to hang out with us today . . .

We love you daddy!
