Michael & Tonya Elgan: Father's Day

Michael is really turning into a great man and father! He was blessed with a sweet little girl and has really enjoyed the gift of being a father. I can't express enough how much respect I have for Michael! He has had some rough decisions that most are never faced and and felt things that most never will. He is so strong and caring it amazes me everyday! When we are faced with trials he is always the steady one! He always helps me keep my head on straight. Michael has been through much in his life and when I see him pull through with a smile on his face it helps me do the same. I had the joy of watching Boston and Michael this weekend. I couldn't even put into words the love he has for his little girl. He is doing everything he can to make sure she will have a good life. Michael is not perfect but no one really is. He has made mistakes and had to learn things the hard way like we all do. All I can say is today his Father's Day and he is so happy he got to spend Father's Day weekend with Boston.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!! I love you!

My dad!

I grew up with my dad raising us four kids on his own! Literately on his own! No help from anyone money wise or anything! He did an amazing job! I think all parents are great but my dad is awesome! He taught me how to be a lady but to also to love outdoors and be a man. I am probably really girly! I was a cheerleader and obsessed with boys in high school! But before that I was a huge tom boy! Always had my hair pulled up! Always dressed like one too ( check the jr . High year book). I learned everything I know about hunting and fishin and outdoors from my father! He always took me out to fish and I can out fish anyone I promise! He thought me when to be rough and when to be soft. He taught me how to respect people when they respect you. He also taugh me never to lash out at people you don't know, even when you think they deserve it. My dad is amazing. We have had a great almost 22 years of a father daughter relationship and still holding strong! I am so happy I get to call my dad on Father's Day and tell him how thankful I am for everything he has taught me through the years. I love hearing him tell he how proud he is of the women I am becoming! Happy Father's Day old man! Michael and I love ya!

Cool facts about my pops: He is published in a book for his research of owls in collage( don't get him started about that he will talk your ear off). People call him the Owl Man.

He also loves the outdoors we were all at my grandmas and joking about how no one in the family ever hears from my dad during hunting season! It was a mirical he showed up at my wedding!
