Better Late than Never

Over Father's Day weekend, Collin, Katelyn, and I got to spend time with lots of the dads and grandads in our lives. Ironically, this did not include their own daddy until late on Father's Day. Mike spent the weekend with his dad working on our basement. We missed them, but that room sure does look good! (More to come on this room soon).

On Friday morning, we headed down to Fayetteville to go swimming at my Gran and Grandaddy's house. Katelyn went swimming in a baby float for the first time. She didn't like it at first, but decided it was okay after a while.
Collin had a great time swimming, driving the remote control boat in the pool, riding the 4 wheeler (seriously is he old enough for me to be saying this?), and riding a bicycle with training wheels for the first time.
Saturday we went to Monkey Joes. Collin, Campbell and Katelyn all had a good time. (Campbell was spending some quality time with Nanna while Kelli and Jason were on a much deserved (and probably much needed) vacation in Antigua.
Collin hit the jackpot on a game and it just kept spitting out tickets. I can remember when I would go to the arcade in the mall as a child. This amount of tickets would have surely gotten something large off of the wall back then. Collin got a yoyo, a toy jet, and a stretchy frog. But he didn't know the difference and he was happy so that's all that matters.
Sunday, we went to my dad's house for a cookout. I got a great picture of Collin and Paw Paw while we were there.
And PaPaw loved seeing the kids and his Scooby Doo card that Collin picked out for him.
We came back home that afternoon to spend some time with daddy and admire all of his (and Papa's) hard work. Both kids slept all the way home. We had a late steak dinner on our new deck after they were asleep for the night. Perfect ending to a great weekend!
