Ah yes, but it's 2 out of 3 that counts

Four years of rock-paper-scissors, cat injuries, nascar races, mt clothespile, newspapers all over the place, love, friendship, laughter and all the other stuff that makes our lives what they are together.

Happy anniversary Stacey, I love you.

Pitas are great!

No, there is no sound in the video. Be silent and honor the pita.

Happy Father’s Day
Posted on 06.21.09 by Andrew @ 12:04 pm

Today is my first Father’s Day and I couldn’t be happier to join the ranks of my friends and family who have been welcomed to the “Fatherhood Club” before me. One of the greatest honors of all came in the mail yesterday from one of my favorite fathers, Ben Johnson. His inspirational message (and the first Father’s Day card I have ever received) really summarized what being a parent means.
Beautiful words, Ben. Beautiful words.

Here fishy fishy father…
Posted on 06.20.09 by Josh Root @ 9:18 pm

Davidson looks like a hobo trying for lunch. I look like a fishing badass.

While everyone here knows I love Stacey, sometimes it needs to be shared.

Stacey just had three days of watching Jack by herself while I was on a work trip to the thrilling Great Lakes area. Watching Jack alone is a tiring business and she would have been completely within her rights to just say “Here, take this thing. I need a break” once I got back. But she was nice enough to say “We’ve got a lot of family stuff to do this weekend. You should go fishing for Father’s Day and drive down to my parents later on. I’ll deal with Jack.”

This was really neat of her and I’m very happy that she loves me enough to think of it. I love you Stacey, you are wonderful.

Now, if I would have actually caught some fish, it would have been a grand slam. But still, it was nice to be back up on one of my favorite creeks.

Meryl is great!

I love me some british candy!

Meryl has just been winning points all over the place (as if she needed any more). First she sent a music box with little spinning sailors that Jack loves. And then just yesterday a box of my favorite UK-only gummie candy showed up at the house. What’s next? Is the queen going to walk in and make me duke of Whatcom County?

Meryl, thanks for everything. However, I apologize for my uncouth younger brother. I was trying to make you a cute video of Jack dancing to the music box. But then Andrew had to start talking about penises in the middle of it. What can I say? The Root boys aren’t overloaded with class.

Isn’t it supposed to be time to harvest when the artichokes are as high as an elephant’s eye?

North in Stacey's arms

Andrew, Gretchen and North all made the trek up from Portland this weekend to visit their friends in the 293. It was great to see them and North is a cute little bugger. Thanks to all three for making the effort to get up here. I sure know how unpredictable trying to make plans like this can be.

I’m not much for arranged marriages, but let’s just consider this one a lock. Start saving your money, Ben. It’s gonna be an expensive wedding.
