Happy Father's Day!

Wow. Mike's FIRST Father's Day!! I wanted this day to be special, because Mike is truly a great Dad. I love watching Carson and Mike together, and I especially love to see Mike's face right when he gets home from work and Carson crawls at record-breaking speed to see his daddy.

I tried to find a Wii gaming system for Mike--he has been talking about getting a Wii for some time now, and it is actually really fun to play. WELL, it is still kind of hard to find the Wii still, and I was getting frustrated...so I went for something else...and it was brilliant.

Two Words:
I got Mike Guitar Hero for Playstation 2, and we have had SO MUCH fun rocking out to 80's hits, trying to become the next guitar legend. If you haven't heard of Guitar Hero--check out this link to the Ellen Degeneres Show where a this kid is playing at EXPERT level, and doesn't miss one note:

I have gotten better on guitar, but at first I got boo-ed off the stage trying to play "Talk Dirty to Me" by Poison. Mike is already on "Medium" level!!

One thing I really wanted to do was cook on Father's Day, because as most of you know Mike does all of the good cooking around these parts! It took me a few days to actually plan out a menu for the Barbeque--knowing that I was going to prepare everything. We had chicken and steak ka-bobs, salads, and ice cream sundaes for dessert. It was a success!

Here is everyone eating on the deck. It was a great day!
Carson drew scribbles of love all over a card for his Daddy. We also went to the pool (again), and--of course--played some more Guitar Hero before we went to bed! :)
