A fathers day Thank you!

Well my wife beat me to the punch, but I wanted to say thanks for making my 2008 fathers day memorable.




I was on location in Las Vegas on a film called "Race to Witch Mountain". My call time was 4am. so I had mentioned that I was getting up at 2:30 to get to work a little early for breakfast. If you didnt know, on a film set, food is provided and we all get to work early to grab a bite before hitting the floor running.









But as it happens, I get a call from my wife at 2:15 am. Being very out of it, I answer the phone not really realizing that its a call and not my alarm going off. On the other end is a rather chipper (not really, she was dead tired waiting up till I was meant to wake up) voice telling me to "Hey ....wake up!!! you gotta get up !!!" Very hard to snap out of the sleep for me. She kept telling me that I was going to have a knock on the door in a few minutes. In my morning haze, I actually thought she might have flown in to spend the weekend with me. But like clock work, there was a knock at the door.


scrambling to get dressed, with phone in one hand and pulling my shorts up with the other, I answered the door to find Room service there with a full breakfast for me. Now that was a surprize.



So a big thank you to Madison and Sheila for that day. It made my day pretty darn special. One of the best Fathers days I'd ever had. I took alot of pride in commeting to my work mates about the whole thing, and Im sure a few wives were questioned as to why they didnt do something like that.




Now Eating breakfast at 2:30 AM isnt as easy as one would think, however it was the best meal I had the entire time I was there.


Thank you to both my girls.. I'm a very lucky guy.




cheers
