Happy Father's Day

Yesterday was Father's Day.  I have the best Dad in the world.  For that reason I was very sad when I realized that I would be across the ocean for not only Father's Day, but also his birthday.

My Mom had the idea for a Father's Day present that he will never forget.  She wanted to surprise him with tickets to see Paul McCartney and a trip to come see me in London.

We skyped around 7pm my time and 2 pm their time.  Initially we talked about what I had been doing the past few days.  A few minutes into it my Mom handed him his first present, the tickets to see Paul, and he was very excited.  Next she handed him a card from me, which I had signed before she dropped me off at Newark.  Inside I wrote "We have a date at Abbey Road!  I can't wait to see you on July 21st."  Then my Mom handed him the itinerary for his flight.  It took a minute for it all to sink in, but he was excited, very excited.

After we told him and it was all setting in. I'm so glad that we were able to surprise him!

I already have a list of things that I want to experience with him.  I can't wait for him to see all of the Beatles attractions.
