We had a good father's day on Sunday. First I wanted to share some pictures I found on the camera. These are pictures Kevin decided to take on one of his Thursdays with Ryder. It looks like they are enjoying their boy bonding time on Thurdays alright!
So we packed up the family truckster and headed for a fun-filled-family picnic at Starved Rock for Fathers Day Sunday. It was hot and muggy when we left the house. After the 2 hour plus drive we arrived to our destination....a picnic table full of food in the middle of the woods in the pouring rain. We we hurried through lunch. We did not get a chance to relax since we were trying to stay somewhat dry! Ryder cried every time we put him down.

I should have snapped a picture of our picnic site. This does not capture the beautiful weather.

Dad, Kevin and the boys.
So we headed over to an indoor amusement park where we could stay dry. The guys rode a few carnival rides. Ryder and Logan loved looking at all the lights. We tried to get a group picture of the guys, but Jesse decided to distract my son and he refused to pose for us after that.
The big mean monster that growled. Ryder refused to take his eyes off the monster to look at me for a picture. He was a bit scared.
The sun finally came out and we headed to the park for some attempted hiking. Unfortunately the trails are not equipped to handle strollers. Ryder enjoying the ride and great outdoors.
We ended our visit in Utica at the local ice cream shop. Then we headed back home. Long day...but we enjoyed seeing our family for a few hours. Maybe we will try to revisit Starved Rock someday when the boys are able to walk safely on their own through the trails.
Maybe 10 years?
