Happy Father's Day, Scott!

I asked Scott what he wanted for breakfast on Father's Day - I offered biscuits and gravy like I have done in the past.  He had other thoughts in mind - he was in the mood for cinnamon rolls.  He's the cinnamon roll master, so he made them on Saturday night and I popped them in the oven this morning and I made eggs to go with them.  Liam only said 'that's not how daddy does it' once, so my egg skills must be getting better!  

Karsten and Scott played Sorry for a bit while Liam and I were finishing breakfast.  Karsten got Sorry from a friend for his birthday, and it's been a big hit, we've been playing it almost daily!

Scott's choice for the afternoon was a movie - Finding Dory in 3D! 

The movie trailers were a bit scary for Liam - one of them was kind of dark, scary and very loud.  He wanted to leave until we were able to convince him that this wasn't the real movie, just a preview of another movie.  Then, the last preview was a short movie and Karsten kept saying 'this isn't Dory, this is the wrong movie!'

I spotted this guy in the lobby on the way in and the boys didn't see him.  When I took them over to see it, they were thrilled!

Since Scott was smoking the salmon and corn on the cob for dinner, I told him I would make whatever dessert he wanted.  He chose key lime pie and after reading a few recipes, I was pretty sure I could handle it.  I even made homemade whipped cream!  He had two pieces, so I think he liked it!

While we were cleaning up dishes, a heard of cowboys came galloping into the kitchen!

We ended a fun Father's Day with another game of Sorry.  This game was serious - the boys understand the rules more and are following them carefully.  There were several gleeful cries of 'SORRY!' as everyone sent someone back to start!

For some reason, this is the celebration when you win Sorry!  I don't get it, do you?

Hopefully Scott had a great Father's Day and knows how much we love and appreciate him!  Check out Liam's card on the right.  After Scott opened it this morning, Liam decided that it needed a cape...just like Superman.  So, he used the envelope from the card and created a front and back cape for the card.  Pretty creative!
