Father's Day Part 2

When I got up this morning, I was told to stay downstairs until breakfast was ready. After about 20 minutes I was allowed to see my world-travelling Father's Day ticket referred to as Disneyland. Alicia had an image of the Plaza Inn hanging from the dining table light, a Disney character tablecloth and cups, and little toy Disney characters arranged as the centerpiece of the table. Alicia had recreated the Disneyland Character Breakfast for me. She even had little bags of fruit sours (yummy candy that you can get at Disneyland) on each plate.

Soon afterwards we packed up the kids and went to Africa - Hogle Zoo. The kids were hyper with excitement at being able to go out. Jace loved the train ride, Claire loved seeing the cats (foxes, cougars. etc.), Ethan wanted to see the snakes and crocodiles, and Emily wanted to ride the Carousel. Each of us had a good time and after about 3 hours, the tiredness started kicking in and we went home.

That was the conclusion of the 24 hour Father's Day celebration. Emily handed me a hand-made card when it was all done which summed it up nicely.

"Happy Father's Day Dad.
"We love you with all are heart.
"Hope you have a fun time."
Love, [Everyone signed]
