Father's Day June 20 2010

After a wonderful Father's Day Church Sacrament Meeting and then home for a Father's Day Dinner per request of the great Dad that resides at this house. Typical Sunday roast with the usual trimmings of potatoes,carrots, celery, onions, garlic etc. Lemon pie and watermelon. Everything turned out to be a really good dinner. Even the vggie terrors seem to enjoy the chicken enchilidas in place of the roast. All the grandones and Heidi, Mike and Shirl went to the park playground and had a fun time with the the girls while I rested on the chaise lounge on the back patio. When they returned through the back gate, I mentioned that it would be a good project to put together a patio swing and it was suppose to be very simple. NOT! sure enough the dads decided that they could do it in a matter of a few minutes. It turned out to be a little more complicated than anticipated and I felt bad they had to put all the little parts together. They actually had it finished in about an hour. Pretty amazing.
Everyone had to take a turn setting in the new swing and it is really comfortable . Thank my SH and Mike for your hard work . I am sure we will enjoy it all summer. It's great to have such great Dad's to celebrate with on their special day.

I wish that I could have been there! Happy Father's Day, Dad!. It was great croaking at you (with my LOW sick voice) last night on the phone. We love you and miss you but look forward to seeing you in about 3 months!!

Love,

Eric

nice looking swing -- and don't you just love the boxes that say "some assembly required" -- heh, right, SOME assembly -- I guess it qualifies because they don't make you do the stamping of the pieces out of the steel!

(now, no tipping over in that thing with the winds we have down here!!)
