Happy Father's Day

Time to play a little bit of catch-up on the ol' blog!! Father's Day was a few weeks ago and we had a great time celebrating with lots of family time!!

I managed to go the weekend without getting a very good picture of Peyton & her Daddy, the reason for our family to celebrate Father's Day, but this was a great one of them playing Memory together a few days ago -



Our weekend started, as it has the last few weeks, with Peyton & Daddy going to soccer practice. After soccer practice, Peyton & I headed down to Clinton to celebrate with Grandpa Arthur and the rest of the family. Since Grandpa had to work on Saturday morning, Peyton & I played with Grammy & Grandma Mintun - lots of bubbles, slide time and enjoying some homemade yogurt pops - yummy!! Peyton wasn't too hip on the concept of a nap so we all decided to watch a movie instead - she fell asleep sitting up about 5 minutes into the movie, it was super cute!! After nap time came a quick dip in the pool - Peyton loves to play in the water in just about any way she can! Uncle Mark, Joe & Tom then joined in the fun for dinner - we had a great time! Unfortunately, I had failure number 2 in that I didn't get a picture with Peyton & Grandpa Arthur together either, but here are a few fun ones from the day -







Sunday morning, Peyton & I got up bright and early and baked Daddy one of his favorites - Cherry Coffee Cake! Peyton was very excited to be baking a cake for Daddy and was a big help! After breakfast and some fun play time with Daddy, we packed-up the car to celebrate with Grandpa Todd, Grandpa Sanders and the rest of the Todd/Sanders family.



When we arrived, Grandpa Todd had started making the homemade ice cream - yum! Of course, Peyton needed to help. I did manage to get a picture with Grandpa Todd though neither one of them were paying a bit of attention! After a tasty lunch, Peyton had a great time playing with Wyatt & Whitney outside with chalk, running through the sprinkler and just in general running around - Peyton loves trying to keep up with the big kids! Luckily, Whitney wore Peyton out so she slept the entire way home!








Happy Father's Day to all of the wonderful men in our lives!!!
