Happy Father's Day...part 1

Well, we are just finishing up a great week.  Emma & Evan are back in summer camp and really seem to be enjoying it.  I am not going to lie...I love when they are in school.  They do so much better on a schedule! :)  They might just have a little of me in them! Friday, we had a parking lot party at work.  I love a good work social.  I think it just boost employee moral!  Jason cooked BBQ and everyone signed up to bring sides.  They set up Clemson tents and Clemson corn hole boards.  It kind of offended us Carolina fans but at D&F we are QUITE outnumbered.  All the guys backed up their trucks and had music going.  It was really neat.  Then, I took E&E and we went to town with Katie & Laney.  This was her first time out in public and she did great!  Emma & Evan did too but I had gotten them some ice cream from Chick-Fil-A and eating always keeps them quiet.  We went shopping for Daddy's Father's Day present.  Then, Friday night Justin and I had a date night.  We had planned to go to the movies but all of the movies playing weren't anything I wanted to see and we had lots of errands to run so we got all of that completed and went out for supper.  It was really nice to eat without having to help anyone.  Alison kept E&E for us.  In just a few short weeks...we will be out another babysitter.  Then, this morning we headed back to town to finished getting our Father's Day things for Justin and to get groceries for supper tomorrow.  Justin was playing golf with his dad and brother and some other guys.  They play every year for Father's Day.  Tonight, we headed out to Mike & Dottie's to celebrate Father's Day with all of them.  We of course did a little fishing. There isn't much else to do out there! Evan really got into it this time.  Justin had bought worms so those always help to catch fish.  Evan did not want us helping him cast the line or anything for that matter.  Emma would let us do it all for her.  She did reel it in a couple times but she was more worried about where Reagan's dog was and singing to the music on my phone.  She is easily distracted.  While Justin was putting a worm on Cooper's hook...Evan caught his own fish.  Granted it was purely luck...it was still the first fish he caught by himself.  Justin had cast his line out and was letting him reel it in by himself.  Much to our surprise when he got the hook back to the bank...there was a fish on it.  It was probably the smallest fish ever and in the pictures you will really have to look to see it but he was so excited.  We were too!  My phone was in the car so we had to take pictures on Justin's piece of junk phone so the pictures aren't that clear!

                          
Evan with his fish and if you look carefully in the left picture he is holding the fish in his hand.  

Then, Justin threw the rod on more time and got a bite almost immediately.  He let Evan reel it in and it was a much better fish.  By now I had my camera so this is a much better picture.  
My babies are getting so big!

Then, we headed inside for supper and presents.  And then we headed home for the night.  It was now about 8:45 and we had to give Emma & Evan baths.  Once we got them in the bed, I had to make rice krispie treats for bible school next week and I also made two sausage pies for Sunday School in the morning.  That is why I am typing this at 11:00 at night.  We are planning a little surprise for the guys.  We can't let them out do us.  We are having them breakfast and Tabor had put together a slide show of pictures we sent in. We each were asked to email her a picture of our guys when they were younger and then some pictures of them with their kids.  She says it is great and I can't wait to see it.  Then, we will celebrate with my family.  So, come back for part 2!!
