Fun-filled Father's Day weekend.

I hope everyone had a fun weekend, because we sure did.

Saturday started out with Rob helping a friend move some of his bigger furniture and appliances into his new home. He is moving to a smaller house and didn't have room for a few items so he offerred them to us. A very nice white 6 drawer dresser with mirror (which I had coincidentally been telling Rob I would like to purchase for Cassandra since her 3-drawer ikea one wasn't cutting it anymore) and a beautiful antique sideboard. Looks great in my front entryway. Thanks Dave!!

Cassandra and Ryan were also busy for the early afternoon. They visit out local youth centre ~ The Garage, which is a stone's throw from our house. They were having a Lemonade stand where they were also selling muffins and cookies. I don't know who did the baking but the peanut butter cookers were quite yummy!

On to my nephews 5th birthday party being held at my parents house. I enjoy most get togethers there as they are very low key, easy going affairs. This one proved to be one of the best. The weather was beautiful and everyone was in a great mood. You could barely tell there were 10 kids there.

We have instilled a rule in the past where there was to be no alcohol permitted at a kids' party. Well, we threw that rule to the wind this weekend. My Dad set up a huge tent and we all camped out.

Big brunch cooked by my Dad the next morning, enjoyed eating it out on the newly built back deck. Afternoon spent at the beach followed by bbq steak dinner, again cooked by my Dad. It really felt like being away at a cottage.

Ohh and Rob loved his Father's Day gift. A brand new Newmac wood-oil combination furnace. Not really his gift but since I ordered it Friday afternoon I told him that was his gift.
