Father's Day

The past few days have gone by quickly.

Friday evening we met up with Mark, Meagan, Ethan, and Abbey at Animal Kingdom.

We rode the Safari ride, saw a neat show on the water, 

and rode a neat ride, which was completely in the dark, I might add.

This was a picture taken by their automatic cameras on the ride. 

We had no idea Manny was standing up until we saw this picture, hahaha.

He did not like the feeling of being trapped in that seat in the pitch dark

 

We laughed about it later.
This next picture was taken at the Jungle Book Water Show

Saturday Hannah and I got to spend a good part of the day together.

We went to my sweet friend's annual recital.

She's a dance instructor and Hannah and I went to see the performances.

They were WONDERFUL and we had so much fun!!!

After the recital we stopped by the mall for some Pretzel Bites, an Icee

and some shopping at Claires.

Hannah found a purse, a hat, some leg warmers (it's a dance thing), and some glasses.

We also got a cute little stuffed cat for Sarah, a necklace, and her own pair of sunglasses;

and we got a pack of bows for Miss Abbey,

 I even managed to find a few things...some headbands -

one with a Cute White Bow, and another with Aqua Flowers

(I'm thinking ahead to our Origami Owl Convention).
We left the mall after our little shopping spree at Claires because Hannah needed to be home
in time to go visit her other papa that night in honor of Father's Day.

Sunday, we went to church, ran a couple of errands (things Manny wanted to do)
then we came home and I fixed him something to eat. The kids were all coming over later for dinner.
We grilled some steaks, the girls brought sides and a dessert, and we had a lovely dinner.
There was also an impromptu Dance Party - because this grandma loves to dance,
and I had recently discovered a new song.
Ethan and Sarah each made Papa a special picture for Father's Day

And this was a picture of Abbey and I just having fun together

I love my family so much!

Thank you God, for my family.
