Happy Father's Day!

Warm, sunny Father's Day. Sam gave me a home-made card, and a coaster made of pieces of wood glues together, which he made at school.

Josh gave me a card as well, which was a Fr's Day card cause at the right moment, when he was deciding what it was, I suggested it be a Fr's Day card. Good Fathering, I reckon.

Nice hot day today. Spent a lot of it repairing then shooting tennis balls, golf balls and a water balloon or two with the trebuchet, with Sam and J. Then bummed around outside with J killing time. Let J play with the hose, He got positively goofy when he realized he could turn it on himself and get a refreshing blast of cool water. Also let him play with the sprinkler and he played in the stream, fishing for frogs. Caught one, but he got away (thank goodness). 

Home-made BLTs for lunch and lasagna for dinner. Only thing lacking was a wife, but that'll be rectified in about 24 hours...


In the shot below Josh was actually saying, wickedly, "Come closer!"


Introduced the boys to the forbidden fruit of IBC soda (black cherry in this case). Wegs doesn't carry it for some reason, so had to stop at a Tops (shudder). Here the soda was at the back of the fridge, and so as soon as it was opened it began to freeze (having been preventing from expanding prior to opening) and the expanding CO2 made a slow, slushy soda geyser.

J tried the IBC, but said it was too "spicy".
