Daddy's Day

The estate where we live "decorates" for holidays with a series of cheesy posters. Last month for Mother's Day there was a poster of a woman's hands chopping and preparing a table full of food. I couldn't help but be struck by the double- standard when I saw the Father's Day poster. . .

Here is Jason on Father's Day last year

Here they are this year

In the process of cleaning out (in preparation for our move) I found a can of pumpkin I had been stashing. Jason said pumpkin pie sounded good, so I made him a very untraditional Father's Day pie. We discovered that cold pumpkin pie tastes delicous in June heat! We are certainly feeling unAmerican this summer though. It gets even worse because Josiah's first day of school is July 4th. At least Jason is still proudly sporting his Wal-Mart red, white and blue shirt (:

Happy Day to All the Fathers!!!
