Father's Day

Delighted to be able to spend time with my Dad on Father's Day again this year!  That's every year for the 62 years of my life, and I think that's pretty amazing.

Everybody loves to get a present.

Dad was delighted with his card,

and had fun opening his gift.

A new large print Word Find will fit nicely
next to the clip board that holds his daily crossword
in the pocket of his recliner.

Steve shows Dad and Alma a new feature on the iPhone.
Both the peeps are on FaceBook and Skype with grandkids in Belgium and Brasil.
Alma had baked a Cherry Pie for Dad's Father's Day gift.  It's his favorite (and mine too!).  Steve and I brought some tiny chocolate cupcakes.  We sat at the kitchen table for a dessert party.  Our first course was warm Cherry Pie with Homemade Vanilla BlueBell Ice Cream.  Lots of melted ice cream left on our plates was some cause for concern with Dad, since you can't let one drop go to waste!  We tried mopping up with the little cupcakes.  Then all of us just got down with our paper plates and slurped up the goods.  And laughed.

Slurp!


Slurp too!

What was left of the Cherry Pie after the four of us were done.

Brother Doug arrived just in time
to celebrate and check on the Astros with Dad.

Doug loaded the gift of a CD's worth of pictures
onto Dad and Alma's computer
while Dad looked on.

Father's Day #62 with my Dad was a Happy Day indeed.
