Father's Day Wknd

What a busy wknd we had! Saturday morning we got up and headed to the Farmer's Market for the first time. Then hit Michaels and the library. We had a Father's Day lunch at Hu Hot - one of our fav places to eat! We made a quick trip home to change into our swim stuff but on our way to the pool the skies became dark and it stormed big time. So we had to turn around and head back home.

Saturday night my in-laws picked up the kiddos. They were super excited about spending the night at their Memaw and Pepaw's...this hadn't happened for almost 2 years! It was about 10:30pm and I honestly was ready for bed. But Chris said we needed to take advantage of the no kid thing, so we headed to Taco Bell at 11:00pm!

We got up early Sunday morning and headed to St. Louis. We stopped by Jefferson Barricks to see if my Grandma's headstone had arrived, and it had. It was incredibly emotional for me to see that. I just couldn't believe I was standing at her gravesite and not stopping by to see her at the Altenheim.

We then headed to the ballpark. Man was it HOT! And the Cards lost...but we did get to see 2 Matt Holliday homeruns, so we had fun! We stopped at O'Charley's on the way home and were seated next to old friends who had also been at the Cards game.

I took the kids to the pool after summer school Monday since it's the only day this week we'll be able to go due to having ballgames every night. They gave Daddy their presents that night too b/c it'd been too late Sunday night. They were quite proud of their plate designs but disappointed that Daddy couldn't actually use the plates. The warning on the plate says "May poison food," so they are apparently for display only!

My kiddos have such a wonderful Daddy who works very very hard to support our family and who very rarely complains about anything at all. We are all so lucky to have this man in our lives and we love him very very much!
