By the way.......Happy Father's Day

For Father's Day weekend we found a yummy cafe to take Eric to breakfast Saturday morning. It is not far from home and very tasty! We then took Amara to a party for a school friend at Chuck E. Cheese. Eric played with Sully and Finn and I roamed around checking on everyone. We then made our way back but not before stopping by the hobby shop to have the new R.C. cars' motor rebuilt. This is the newest hobby in the house these days.

Eric got an R.C. car when he was 13 or so and through all the years of marriage and moving and dejunking we've been able to hold on to it. A month or so ago he decided it would be fun to get it out and show the kids. They fell in love! They've named it Bingo and they love to go outside and have Eric chase them around with it. We've just recently aquired a second one. It's name keeps changing so I'm not sure what to call it. Needless to say it's been nothing but R.C. fun for weeks and we're hoping it lasts all summer.

Sunday we made Eric chocolate chip pancakes and brought it to him in bed. Then he taught his primary class at church. We came home and BBQ'd some seriously tasty steaks for dinner. Then for dessert we had Eric's favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies ( my Aunt Cari's recipe) and ice cream. Our good friends came over and desserted with us. All in all it was a great weekend.

To all the Father's I know, I just wanted to say Thanks. Thanks for loving your wives and children. Thanks for being a great example to those around you of what a Dad should be. I love you all!

I saw the famous Bingo when I was there this last time. How exciting that it has been improved and there's another to play with. I look forward to playing with the RC cars when I come up next

So glad you celebrated the Father of your children in such a great way. We can never be too grateful for righteous Fathers in our lives.
The cars sound fun, however these old grand parents may not be able to keep up.
We may just have to watch.
