Happy Birthday, Dad!

Last Thursday was my Dad's birthday, so we met up with the rest of my family at the lake. 

Tom was at the Kentucky Truck Plant last week for work, so the boys and I headed to Indiana when I got home from work on Thursday.  It was just the three of us and my parents Thursday night, so we had a campfire and played some card games. 

On Friday, the boys and I went shopping in Shipshewana -- the bulk food store, the meat store, and all of our other favorite stops in town.  We picked up steaks to go with the green beans and potatoes that I brought from home, and when we got back to the campground we fixed a delicious birthday dinner for my dad.

Saturday was "Party Day", and it was beautiful!  My sisters and I enjoyed the sun and warm weather at the beach while we read our books, and the boys enjoyed a boat ride and competitive game of jarts with their uncles.

It was a day of fun,

good food,

and family!

(They were thrilled to know that they were going to be in my blog!)

Later, after a delicious dinner, we had chocolate cake and ice cream with homemade fudge -- YUM!!

Happy Birthday, Dad!

Back at home, I checked out the blogs of our fellow RV-Dreamers, and put together our homeschool schedule for the week.  I also remembered that I needed to drop in on Paulette and sign up for her "Lady Go Go" giveaway that ends on Tuesday.  Fellow quilters -- go on over there and check it out!
