As has been characteristic, the most excited person for the holiday was Brooke :) She had big plans, and if they weren't followed ... everyone would definitely pay the price. My morning began with breakfast in bed, where I was given about 2 minutes to eat (and had to share it all with Luke). I was then presented beautiful flowers and three of my favorite candy bars (which I had been quizzed about in the days prior). The kids immediately started asking me about Father's Day - when is it? what should we get dad? The anticipation of a holiday is enough for them, once it actually arrives they're already pretty much over it :)
Later we went out for lunch at a place of Brooke's choice, specifically because they had a cookie skillet dessert. Lunch was delicious, however Brooke ate about 50% of that skillet! I'll have to go back without her sometime so that I can get more than a bite or two. We also played at the park and had a generally relaxing and fun day.
Brooke and Ryan also prepared me cards and presents at school.
Here is Ryan's
Brooke gave me a card (these are the three sides) and hand-made soap that has a ring inside of it. She's very excited about the soap, I assume because once we get the ring out she plans to snag it from me.
