Happy Father's Day!

Lately, a holiday honoring a parent calls for a delux breakfast in bed. Since we still had a couple extra kids hanging around, that meant no fancy eggs benedict for Uncle Jim. Instead, the early risers (Georgie, Annalise and I) went out and got donuts for Father's day. Because, really, that's all Dad wants anyway. Jim and the crew settle down for a quick bite to eat before the presents get handed out.
A pie iron! Now we can eat campfire pies with frosting on top!


When Georgie heard there were more donuts downstairs, she tried to escape, with cute results.


Finally, she got her donut. Aunt Jenni's house is the best. Your mom would never let you have a whole donut to yourself, kid. I wouldn't let my own baby have a donut. that's why we have aunts and uncles.

Later, we took Uncle Jim out to lunch at Steak and Shake because kids eat free on the weekends and we had an entire herd to feed.

Future in food service?


Future grill master.

Look how happy she is. First a donut, then all the french fries she could gum down. You will see that we also gave her fruits and vegetables so we aren't completely to blame for her stunted growth. Then it was off to the Children's musuem!

In the new area of National Geographics Treasures of the Earth, Mom, Sweet Gee, and Annalise hanging with the clay warriors found in China.

Evie and Henry dig for another warrior.

Annalise has finally mastered the monkey bars. It seems like Evie has been doing it forever and now little sis can do it too!

Of course, we had to park Henry in a race car on the way out.
