Father's Day 2011

For Father's Day we got Chris his own Kindle, so he could read all the books he's been going through on something bigger and lighter than an iphone. All morning he had fun trying to figure what books to download.

We went over to my parents house for dinner. Chris and Kristen were there too, and Cory's still home for the summer. We had a BBQ and some swimming.

Ryleigh hasn't had swim lessons yet and she's definitely not afraid to jump towards Chris or I off the step when we aren't looking. So we don't trust her without floaties. This is the floaty we had at my parents house. My brothers both used to have similar floaties 20 years ago. This one is a little tight to get into, but does the trick. Just not too fashionable though - but I guess if you combine it with a hat and sunglasses....

And she made poor Kristin lift her up for dunks. No one else was allowed to do it.

Great fun in the sun. I'm pretty sure all the dad's had fun!

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day, Chris!! You are such a great Daddy!

Today we took Ryleigh to the park. It was really busy at the park this afternoon. Everyone was out enjoying such a gorgeous day!

Checking out the binoculars.

Chris would push Ryleigh in her car, and she would put her hands up and yell "wee!" then "more!"

We walked over to this pizza place in our neighborhood for dinner. I stayed outside at a table, while Chris went in to order. Ryleigh was really worried about dad in there.
