Part 2 of weekend blog and Father's Day with Heath

Layne and I started Saturday by going to the farmer's market in Old Colorado City and then went to the mall.  The good thing is that we were able to shop together without fighting or disagreeing!!  It was really great.  The bad part was that we were just gone too long.  Heath, in the mean time, rented the tiller again and made some great progress in the yard.

On our return, Heath was working hard in the yard. I gave up working in the kitchen, painting cabinets, to help Heath outside. I thought he might appreciate that, but I am really not much help when it is this hot!!

I was working kinda hard too.

On Sunday morning, the plan was to make Heath breakfast and then wake him up.  This is a good plan, he never wakes up before me....not since we moved here.  Every morning I am trying to get him out of bed like a little kid (kinda annoying).  It just so happens that on Father's Day, he wakes me up....really?!!  So breakfast is made (while he is up) and then we decide to go through all our old photos to find "dad" pictures.  It really was a lot of fun to do, but I think Heath was just trying to do anything but go out back and work.  In my defense, I did tell him he didn't have to work in the backyard on Father's Day.  It took some time to go through the photos and then post all of them and then clean up!!  By the time he got out into the yard it was pretty hot.  Layne had decided that we were going to take him to a movie and since we are cheap, we like to go to the matinee because the tickets cost less.  We decided to to to Iron Man 2 at 4:30, so after fixing the special Father's Day meal and getting ready......there wasn't too much hot yard work done yesterday and that was good.

Layne did help her dad (more than I did) on Sunday.

Progress is being made.

Heath and Layne working together on Father's Day.

If any of you have watched Nacho Libre or been around the three of us much, you know how much we love the movie and quote it.  There are a few scenes in the movie that deal with corn!  Specially a type of Mexican corn on the cob that is on a stick and covered in something??  It just so happened that I received an email recipe for "Grilled Mexican Corn with Crema".  Perfect timing!!  I went to the store but couldn't find Crema Mexicana and the nice cheese experts at Whole Foods said, just use sour cream and add some water.  It was actually really good and Heath loved it. 

So, in honor of Nacho Libre:  

Esqueleto: Surprise.

Nacho: Get that corn outta my face!

The cute card that Layne picked our for Heath.

After the movies...we sat out front because there was a guy playing live music.  So we got Cold Stone and just enjoyed the sun and music and did some people watching, it was great.

I think Heath had a good day!!  I know I did.
