A Day for Dad

Isabelle and Oliver had a great day celebrating their dad, with some significant planning (and wrapping, cooking, shopping) help from their Mom! Isabelle and Mommy started the day by whipping up some pancakes, meaning lots of hands-on fun for Isabelle, plus she got to share in the eating of the final product!


From there, the quartet headed off to gymnastics class for family day, meaning Oliver could join the fun in the studio plus shock of all shocks, the camera ban was lifted and we could actually take some pictures. Finally we get to show others that yes, Isabelle does indeed take classes! Lots more on this and the photographic evidence in an upcoming post.

Isabelle decided that maybe her Dad would like some treats to go with his big day, like maybe some ice cream, Daddy? Amazingly, she was also in the mood for some so off to DQ to partake in some soft serve sweetness. A big hit on a hot and humid day.

Upon our return home, the thunderclouds appeared to break in time for some bouncy house action for the front yard. Within minutes, it was up and Isabelle was only slightly overjoyed to see it go up! See the face below for confirmation of this. Unfortunately, the clouds came back as quickly as they left so it was a short-lived event. It is back in the garage but ready to roll for the warm weather after school tomorrow!









Lastly, we ventured back inside for Dad's special dinner of fettucini and meatballs, plus his gifts, which included a lovely painting from Isabelle and Apple TV for the multimedia lover himself. Now he can stream photos and videos of his loved ones from the computer to full big screen glory any time he wants. Try getting the remote away from him now!
