Sunday was all about Gary as we Zyrieks celebrated Father's Day. My dad was out of town on a golf retreat to Colorado with his friends and their wives. My stepfather suggested just meeting for dinner so we could spend the day with Gary. Gary arose SUPER early to get in a bike ride before the heat set in and before church. Not sure he evaded the heat, but he did get in a great ride. I made a gourmet breakfast of pancakes to have waiting when he returned. We all went to church and afterwards the girls and I treated Gary to a yummy lunch at Houston's. The food was great. The girls had never been there before but it turned out great....definitely a hot spot for families on Sunday!! To beat the heat we took in an afternoon showing of Toy Story 3. Very good movie and even a little bit of a tear jerker at the end. The girls were laughing all throughout the movie and Gary and I were even laughing a lot as well. After the movie was over we were off to take Gary to the airport for his week in Atlanta for work. Gary never travels but has a class plus some customer visits to do this week so we were all a bit sad, especially Caroline who literally cried for an hour saying she was going to miss Daddy. I don't think she really has ever experienced him traveling at all. Such a shock for her and even made Gary a little sad as well.
After the airport we met Mom and Dan for dinner....Great Father's Day all around. Wish my dad had been in town and it would have been perfect! We celebrated the weekend before with my dad. 4 out of 5 of his kids were in town and we celebrated his birthday and father's day all together. He enjoyed having so many kids and grandkids around to celebrate and it was fun.
I love Gary so much and the girls adore him. Glad that we had a great day together to celebrate!!
