Going into 2015 Father's Day weekend, my only goal was to have a relaxing weekend with the family. We didn't have any plans, so it looked like a great time to just be lazy. That changed in a hurry.
First, we got an invite from the Tucker family to join them at the Nashville Sounds baseball game that Saturday night. You 2 didn't watch a lot of baseball, but the brand new stadium sure was nice. Plus, you got to eat a lot of junk food, including ice cream from helmets. And who could forget the ride on the yellow bus?
The fun didn't stop there, though. Sunday we talked Mama into braving the elements and going to the zoo (it was 100 degrees that day). So we loaded up on gatorade and water, and we went to the Nashville Zoo.
We saw all the animals and drank 7 slushies! Mama got some great pictures and joined you two in the tunnel to see the marmets up close and she also helped you feed the parrots. My favorite part was the battling flamingos. Let's also not forget the reptile and creepy crawly house, which keeps big spiders, lots of fish, and even snakes.
A great day, even with the heat!
We were all tired when we got home, but Mama and Julia decided to go say hi to Pappy on Father's Day. So, we added another road trip to our weekend, and went to Centerville, Tn, to see Grandma and Grandpa! They were very surprised, and Grandpa had grilled enough food for 12 people...so we ate well, too. We definitely made Grandpa's day!
Thanks for a great Father's Day... I'm very proud of both of you!
Love,
Daddy
