Father Fiesta

We like themes around here...But the men in my life know what's really important and for them as long as their family is near they have a good time.  And that we did. 

We went with a mexican fiesta for Father's Day.  All mexican food, margaritas, and a sombrero (however I don't have a pic of that sombrero my dad rolled in with  -my fault completely) but we had it going on.  We even had a pinata for the kids.  Aunt Kathy and Uncle Mike were the fabulous hosts this Father's Day.


 This one enjoying a blue sucker in the heat


Along with some love from Auntie Mims.



Then came the whoopi cushion....this played quite a role for us on Sunday...Grey thought the "noises" were just the berries...

A few gifts to open in between...




and pictures with 'da boys'



As I told you we went with a Mexican theme...with chips/salsa, hot tamali's, mexican ribs, chicken tacos, corn salsa - I'm tellin' ya we had it...it looked like a spread from Mickey's!




 And for dessert, well we capped that off with grandma Joyce's homemade strawberry cream rolls...can you say - yummm!

Grey and his daddy

The fabulous hostess...



and then we broke out that pinata I was telling you about



and of course had fun with the whoopi cushion a little more.



Grey took his turn

Livy took her turn

and Mary took her turn, but we just weren't getting anywhere


We were havin' a hard time breaking that pinata so Grey and Dee Dee watched intently


 Uncle Alex gave it a try




and Auntie Mims gave it a try


Then Mary pulled out her BIG DOG....and gave that sucker a good swat!  Check out that softball stance.

and after a couple swings - the pinata broke and all the candy fell out


and the kiddos ran and filled their bags.

See!

Grey went with a ring pop to start!


Happy Father's Day!  It was a good one!
