Happy Father's Day!

Today is all about Dave. This means he gets to do whatever he wants. Do you know what he's doing right now? He's at work. This comes as a surprise to, well, probably not anyone who knows him. This is not to say he hasn't had a great 1st Father's Day up til now. This morning Henry and I surprised him with breakfast in bed consisting of: orange juice, coffee, scrambled eggs (with mushrooms, cheese, ham, and turkey), and Coco Puffs. He got two cards, one from Henry and one from Flash. Then, because he has to act like a total dad on Father's Day, he proceeded to mow the lawn. For lunch we went out to Skeeters Pit BBQ and sat on their deck which overlooks the mighty Susquehanna. The food was amazing. Henry was great. He was totally enthralled by his Brown Bear, Brown Bear book and was obliviously devastating the ladies with his good looks. We were content to hang out on the deck for a while until a woman at a neighboring table starting asking someone on the other end of her cell phone if her doctor had inserted drainage tubes or not, etc., etc. Nothing kills a meal like that, let me tell you. Dave was glad it happened after we'd finished eating. We came home and piled into Henry's bedroom (the only room with A/C) and hung out until he got his crank on, then Dave gave him a bottle and put him down for a nap. Now Dave's at work and I'm here with the dog sweating out the 90+ degree weather. I foresee ice cream in our future.
