Happy Father's Day 2012

Last weekend the four of us went to Savannah. Lynn had a conference to attend, so most of our trip was paid for. On Saturday morning I took the girls to the beach. The water was much warmer than the beach at Maine, so the girls went right in.


 The trip was also interesting as the girls end up sharing a bed. Claire with me and Laura with Lynn. Claire and I were out like a light, but Laura kept getting in Lynn's face to see if Lynn was sleeping. Lynn said it was all she could do to stop laughing. Needless to say, Lynn and Laura didn't get much sleep. Here are some photos from the weekend.

On Monday morning, Lynn flew to Ottawa for work and then later in the week to Toronto, returning home on Friday. So it was me, the girls and Luzma. Ok, mainly Luzma. We all missed mom.

On Saturday morning, we washed Kayla in the driveway. Kayla didn't care for it, but the girls had fun. We think Kayla is deaf or close to it, as she doesn't not respond when Lynn calls her - maybe I am deaf too. Our original girl is 13 years old and showing her age. Rooster is not faring much better at 16 years. We already had a talk with Claire about the health of the animals. Anyway, I digress.

Father's day was a lazy day. Claire was interested in my tripod, which she calls a telescope. She asked me how it works. The result is below.


After a photo shoot, we went for a walk in the morning and then rode our bicycles in the cul-de-sac.  The girls enjoyed it, especially Lightning McClaire.

 

After the girls (and dad) had a nap, the girls wanted to put on a play for us called the Pirate and Tinkerbell. Yes, it was definitely an off, off, off, off broadway production, but the play was capped by Laura (who missed mom this past week) when she asked Lynn, "So, are you just visiting?" You can see the start of the play below.



Unfortunately for all of us, Lynn is off to Montreal and Halifax this week, and then Calgary next week. I did also mention that Lynn was awarded a prestigious Holder Award at work? She's going places, literally and figuratively. Anyway, enjoy some photos from this weekend.
