Father's day weekend

As usual, I over-planned a *teensy* bit for our Father's day weekend o'celebrations :)  Hey, my heart is in the right place though!!

We started off at an awesome splash pad in Circleville, where of all people we ran into Beanie's teacher, Ms. Cannon!! Turns out she lives in Ashville and spotted Amara from across the splash pad.

Eric got to golf with his dad, brother, and brother-in-law in the morning, while grandma Jahn and I took the girls to play and lunch--she packed a super picnic for us!!  We all had a blast and it was a super nice park!  On the way home, we stopped to get ice cream--somehow Cora managed to eat the cone but the ice cream ended up in the seat, still shaking my head on that one...

Later, we went to Megan and Tony's 'surprise' wedding and to see their new house, which was also fabulous! They looked so lovely and their house is adorable!

Sunday we got up and tried a new doughnut place in the Lil' Doughnut factory and loved it!  We had so much fun there, and Eric said he had was was probably his most favorite doughnut ever, in the Maple Bacon doughnut!

Amara LOVES to eat inside restaurants, so the fact it's small and we were the only ones there was a special treat--and she loved propping up to the bar with daddy.

After breakfast, we opened gifts, including a new bicycle from the Jahn's and a new riding wagon from the girls, and after a quick assembly, they were already out riding! 

He was clearly surprised and everyone got in on the action of unpacking and assembling it.

The inaugural ride was brief--Eric said he needed to get his fitness endurance back up before heading too far out 'dragging' an extra 70 pounds :)...but they loved it anyway.

All in all we had a wonderful time and we appreciate daddy so VERY much!  We are lucky to have him and enjoy celebrating with him all the time, but especially on Father's day!
