Father's Day Weekend

Father's Day..... Such a special day for us this year as we had a new addition to the family to make things more special.



Last Friday Danny made plans for us to head to Paris for a quick overnight trip.  He had been able to put together a cabinet package for his mom's house in Canada and finally found the time in his shops schedule to cut out all the pieces and load it in his vehicle. We barely had room for Colby's car seat and were stuck riding two hours to Paris with a board the length of the car riding between Danny and I in the front seats.




We will be leaving this coming Saturday for our annual summer trip to Canada.  This year Danny, Izzy, Colby and myself are flying up and my dad (Pa) and step mom (Lolli) are driving their camper to meet us and spend the week up there.  Things worked out perfectly for the new cabinets once we found out my dad was driving up as he agreed to haul all the pieces in his camper.

On Friday evening before we left for Paris, Colby and I were able to get everyones overnight bag packed and him bathed for our trip before Danny got there.  Colby also practiced his baseball swing.... Daddy swears he'll be a future Hall of Famer! ;)

On Saturday morning, Lolli and Pa came over to visit and bring us breakfast at the Farm.  Little man was still pretty tired.  Oh thank heaven for Lolli!

Danny and Pa continued studying the map for Pa's drive to Canada. 


Danny wrapped up the cabinet pieces to make sure nothing got dented on the long drive up.



While the boys worked hard to pack things Colby and I went to lunch with Aunt Whitney and Lolli.  MMMMM.....mmmmmm.... TaMolly's!

On Sunday Danny and I were able to go pick up Izzy for Father's day.  Here is Danny and the kids as Danny unwraps his gifts.





After the gift giving we loaded up the car again to head ot Lake Texoma and meet Lolli and Pa at their campsite.  Pa goes on his annual stripper fishing trip every June with his friend Thump.  Colby started running a temperature while we were out so the poor thing was naked most of the day.

You'd never guess he was sick by the look of him here.

Izzy enjoyed swimming in the water, tubing behind the boat and looking for shells.




Pa and Colby look down the hill as Izzy and Lolli look for more shells.



My dad doing what he does best.... grilling! Thanks for the delicious grilled pork chops Daddy!
