Happy Father's Day 2014

Reagan planned a special Father's Day breakfast for Greg this year.  She wanted to surprise him with cinnamon pancakes!  She wanted everyone to hide and yell "Surprise" when he came downstairs, but I reminded her he knew it was Father's Day!!

putting all the ingredients for the pancakes

Cooper helped too!



she even poured them out on the griddle by herself

Cooper read his card to Greg

sweet family - notice the rabbit ears over Greg's head!

Reagan read her card to Greg too

next came the gifts~a jar full of kisses

not sure what they're laughing at, but they had a great time!

Ready for breakfast - cinnamon pancakes with whipped cream and sprinkles

After breakfast, we headed to church.  Again, the kids like to get there a few minutes early so they can have the playground all to themselves!

 Back home for a son/father/daughter picture

 

Fun Day Monday

The kids and I decided to make some blackberry ice cream for our treat after supper.



stirring the blackberries

 When we got home from school today, the fire department was in the neighborhood testing the fire hydrants.  Reagan and Cooper jumped on their bikes and followed them all around the neighborhood.  I didn't have time to grab my camera, but I did talk Cooper into letting me take his picture in his new fire chief hat!
