Let's all go to the Dairy Queen....

I have been craving a DQ cone all day! Janae took this portrait of her dogs, and our dogs this afternoon in our old Dairy Queen wagon and I think that is fueling my craving.

Janae is so amazing with her animal portraits!

We had a lovely Father's day! We went and visited my Dad this afternoon.

We spent some time enjoying his pond and his fish.

We had our favorite family dinner...which I hate to admit is deep fried steak and cheese. (a type of fondue) Could you get anymore unhealthy?! We only have it on special occasions..and it is always so delicious.

I knew Jerry would be happy with this unhealthy meal for his special day:) Janae got Jerry a fishing license. Chantel got him some strawberry plants for his garden and a glow in the dark fish cave for one of his fish tanks. Wyatt and Gage got him a tropical plant he has been wanting. Jerry was so happy with all his gifts. Celebrating being parents is one of our favorite things to celebrate..we are so proud of all our kids!

Gage gets giggly happy with every bite of fondue! I feel blessed that Gage can eat steak..a lot of special kids can't. Eating is one of life's joys for Gage!

I am just loving my David Austin Wildeve rose bush that I got last year. These roses are gorgeous! My Eden climbing rose that I got this year is starting to have buds--I thought it might not until next year..but I am pleasantly surprised! I can't wait to have beautiful blooms on that one too. Roses seem to do so well here..despite all the rain. I guess there is a reason we are the city of roses!

I hope that everyone had a great Fathers day. Our relaxing day full of fattening food was just perfect for us. I still am craving that Dairy Queen cone though! (chocolate dip would make it extra good) :) Wanna go with me?

Thanks for visiting!
