Family, Father's Day and Art

My brother, Jim, came in town last weekend for a golf tournament so we only got to see him one night since he was busy most of the time, but it was great to see him. My brothers are two of the most wonderful men I know, and I'm glad to have them as role models for my boys. As Brandon said, if Parkes and Cash turn out half as good as Jim and Brad then we've done a good job as parents. So here they are playing soccer with Parkes. and Cash watching as he eats his cookie...he goes crazy if he just senses there's a cookie around. Hope all the Dad's out there had a great Father's Day. We had lots of fun. We woke up early and went to Waffle House (I think Brandon gave into to Parkes breakfast choice), then off to church which we also did nursery for the 11:45 service so did not get out until late and headed straight over to the church picnic which was hot hot hot. Parkes ran around on all the inflatables, but I don't know how he made it because just getting near them made me hot. Brandon and a friend of ours played in the cornhole tournament, but didn't make it past the first round. Then we came home and relaxed on the porched and listened to the music from a band playing down at a neighborhood event and Brandon changed out his brake pads (not real exciting for him for father's day but he said it had to be done). Here's what the boys gave him...And here's the boys at one of there favorite places in the house. Parkes doesn't leave the art center at school and Cash is becoming to love it too...he can't climb into the chair by himself because of his short little legs so I just here him screaming when he goes over there to let me know he wants up.
