Father's Day this year was a bit subdued. The Boy had the stomach flu and our plans for doing some fun family stuff the day before had fallen apart. So we were a little unsure as to what all we could even try to do Sunday.

The Hubs got a bike for his gift and he loves it! He took it out immediately to try her out. He used to bike a lot when he was in college and really enjoys it, so this was a gift WIN :)

After he got back we decided to head out for breakfast :) We decided on Farmer Bros. after the wait time at Perko's FAR exceeded our patience.

The Boy was trying to put on a brave stomach face but ended up only eating about have a piece of bacon ... which kinda sucked because he ordered a whole kids meal ... so I hope that piece of bacon was AWESOME cause it cost $3.99.

After breakfast we ran to the store for some BBQ stuffs and then headed out to the pool.

We relaxed and I laid out in the sun absorbing all of that awesome vitamin D (and a drinky poo) and working on my tan :)

The kids had a great time running around with their noodles. Boy they love those things.



Lil Miss is quite the lil fish. She just swam ...

and swam ...

and swam!

You MIGHT think all that activity would wear her out and she would sleep good and maybe even SLEEP IN! Well ... you'd be wrong.

Apparently it makes her want to get up at 6am to greet the world with a smile :D

At least that will be helpful when we get back into school.

It sure did tire the Boy out though.

After all of the fun we came back in for some quiet time. The Hubs and I started watching the Empire Strikes Back on G4 or something and were all into and set to watch Return of the Jedi afterward because OF COURSE they would be having a marathon, it's Father's Day!

Except that after Empire came ... Coal? A show about the lives of coal miners? Sure ... and then 3 hours LATER came Return of the Jedi. Makes total sense.

But luckily I am a QUICK THINKER and remember that we had a DVD player! And the trilogy on DVD!

And so we ended Father's Day with a mini marathon and some cuddles. It was a nice Father's Day :)
