I was super draggy at work all day and extremely tired when I got home. I started to fix supper but Dwayne didn't want what I was fixing. So he made sloppy joes (or as Todd calls them neat judy's). He did a great job and they were the best I've ever tasted. (all after a total of four hours on the road and working eight hours!) Chad came by for a visit. He's not a big eater, but he ate two. Always nice when any of the kids come by.
Saturday:
I had to pick up stain for our fence at Lowe's. Customer service-good; waiting for someone to load-LOUSY. I had to wait for at least twenty minutes.
I then went for my favorite trip to Wal-Marts. They were very crowded. While there, Todd called to see if we were going to be home, him and Michelle were bringing out lunch for Father's Day. We had a great lunch and visit. They weren't going to be able to make it to Dad's for Father's Day Dinner the next day. They did go by and visit Dad.
I had been wanting lobster. Sput's has steak n lobster special on Saturday night. I substituded the steak for an extra lobster tail. When they brought them out one lobster was white and the other one was pink. It wasn't my imagination, the pink one just wasn't good. Disappointed!
Sunday:
We were going to all get together at Dad's for Father's Day. I thought it would be good for Dad if we all came to his house. Got my covered dishes together and then went to Dad's. Peeled potatoes for mashed potatoes and put a pot of corn on. Then I dashed off to Rolla to pick up fried chicken from Lee's Chicken. When I got back most everyone was there. It was Iva's debut and everyone fought over who got to hold her next. I don't know why I didn't take any pictures. I only got one of my sister, Katie hold her.
Aunt Katie and Iva
Dwayne and I had bought this cute little apricot colored lace dress when Iva was born. Wish I would have taken a good picture of just her in the dress. She looked so cute. Cash did better around a crowd of people. Usually he sticks to Pa and doesn't want anything to do with anyone else. He calls my Dad, Pa Great. He always goes up to him and gives a big hug on each shoulder and then a kiss. He's done this for a long time. When him and April come over, he always wants to go see Pa Great.
Poor Dwayne, what a Father's Day he had. It was his choice though. He got up early to wash and wax his truck. Why, I don't know, he never does this. He worked all day on the inside and out. It looks very good but he was certainly tired.
I am so grateful to still have my Dad with us.
