Father's Day Weekend

So, Thursday isn't technically the weekend, but Daddy and Deane were both just so tired that they ended up getting this rare and precious nap in.

 Saturday night we attended the reception (between naps, etc. the wedding didn't work out) for Chris's best friend Brandon's younger sister, Krystal's wedding.  It was great to see Brandon, Kristin and family.  We didn't get to spend a lot of time together, but stayed until 8:30/9PM.  Here's a photo of Brandon holding Kate and Chris holding Savannah.
It's just so fun to get the whole family dressed up.

This year we celebrated Father's Day by going to Church at St. Maria Goretti, followed by a trip to Lowe's.  It was supposed to be Home Depot, but we opted to go to Lowe's because of the traffic on the I-74 bridge.  Boy is Chris glad he had that thought.  As we approached the store, I mentioned that he should look at the riding lawnmowers (since he has been push mowing our half acre for a couple months and hating it).  It just so happened there were some deals available so....45 minutes later Chris had delivery of his new rider scheduled. 
We grabbed Steak N Shake and returned home just in time for Dad, Chris, and Andy to golf at Fyre Lake.  We had dinner (ribs that I grilled!) and Carrot Cake made by my mom and enjoyed each other for the early evening.  I used some free printables to decorate with.
