Today we celebrate our dads. We started the day with french toast (Brooks slept in until almost 10:00 am, so it was just me and Greg). It was an extra yummy breakfast because we used Great Harvest cinnamon chip bread to make the meal. Yum. We skipped church today because of Brooks sleeping unusually late. We got to take a trip to Eddie Bauer as a family to return a couple of things I got Greg that didn't fit him. It was fun to have a leisurely Sunday morning. We love church but sometimes things get pretty crazy on Sunday mornings.
After church we hosted a meal at our house for our dads. Greg's dad couldn't make it because he was out of town, so we just did a lot of thinking about him today! The meal was a "because we love you" meal. Each item we served was chosen in honor of the dads in our lives and was a reflection of their favorite foods.
The menu was:
Lasagna and bread sticks because we love Keven! (Steph's husband)
Salad with Green Goddess dressing because we love Opa! (my dad)
Raw onion for the salad and sugar free sweetener for the coffee because we love Grandpa! (my dad's dad)
Build your own ice cream sundae bar because we love Greg! (our daddy and husband)
We had a lot of fun preparing the meal. After we ate (way too much) we got a round of ladder golf in and the kids braved the swimming pool on the deck. It was a nice time to be together.

Brooks is telling us that he thinks his dad is a champ!
At the mall giving daddy kisses. We love you Greg!
