Weekend Recap:: Father's Day

Fishing with Dad!

I spent this past weekend at home with my family and it was wonderful! Sometimes it's nice to just go home and unwind. After a few busy weeks recently, a weekend on the farm was much needed!

Friday::
I drove home after a long day at work. My Mom went to see a play in Jeff City with my Grandma and Aunts, so Dad and I were left to fend for ourselves for dinner. I decided stop by and grab us some food from our favorite Mexican restaurant (El Jimador) while passing through Jeff. We ate and then both fell asleep while watching TV.

Saturday::
The family spent most of the morning butchering chickens (gross, I know). There was no way I was helping with that, so I volunteered to watch the kiddos. My nephew and little cousin were quite the handful! They wore me out. Later, I spent the evening with my nephew and sister, before calling it an early night.

My daredevil nephew!

Sunday::
Mom made a great big breakfast for Dad to celebrate Father's Day. After breakfast, my dad and I went fishing. He caught 20 or so, and I caught about 5. Clearly, he's the better fisherman. Later, my brother-in-law made us BBQ chicken for dinner. I think we will be eating a lot of chicken for a while!  To close out the day, my sister and I gave my dad a canvas of this picture and a saddlebag cooler for his Harley for Father's Day. He loved both gifts!

My big catch!

This week is going to be a busy one! I have a lot of packing and cleaning left to do before I move on Friday!

I hope you all have a great week!

Sincerely,
