Here's to the men in my life!!!

Happy Father's Day!!!
Not many things make my Daddy happier than a complete waffle. Last week my Mother made waffles (probably not full ones because she hates the clean up) and fried eggs. Phil ate with them and assumed that the little black specs were from the eggs that had been fried in the bacon grease. After a closer inspection and having eaten most of the waffle my brother discovered that indeed they were eating ants that had invaded the syrup bottle.

Now my husband loves fried eggs but won't eat them unless he can have them on toast even if I have made delicious waffles. Breakfast is one of the harder meals to fix and I seldom fry eggs so I kept with tradition and "refused" :-) to fry them. (my excuse is I have been sick all week)whatever!!!

My Father-in-law on the other hand is very similar to my Grandpa Evans. I do believe they will eat anything on their plate and never complain. It can be cold and he may wish for something else but you would never know. Very easy to please!
Each one has a special place in my heart and I love them for different reasons. I need each one and appreciate them. I love you Dad, Daddy and David!!!

I think tomorrow, it will be blueberry pancakes for your father-in-law. He does like pancakes or waffles and we don't usually have them due to the calories, etc.

I hope you all have a wonderful day. Dad enjoyed his Father's Day card from David.

I wasn't the only one to eat the ants!
