Luke's Diary: Father's Day Weekend

Hi Mommy's blog readers!

We had such a fun Father's Day weekend...I can't wait to tell you all about it!

On Saturday, we went to our first festival...the Bluegrass Festival in Palisade. Uncle Ben came to visit, and Grandma Charlotte, and Grandma Peggy and Grandpa Steve were there, too. Sissy and I lay on our monkey blanket in the grass and listened to music and there were lots of people to play with us, and when we cried nobody was disturbed because the music was louder. Mommy says music festivals are a good place to bring babies! Mommy and Daddy and Uncle Ben had beers, and everyone ate good food, and Mommy and Daddy even got us tie-dyed onesies...Mommy said it was the perfect day for us to be little Colorado hippie kids! Oh, and Uncle Ben held me for a while and you wouldn't believe all the women that came up to talk with him! I'm going to have to hang out with him more often...he needs a wife so me and Sissy can get some cousins! It was warm and the cottonwoods were letting go of their cotton...Mommy said it looked like snow, but I don't know because I haven't seen snow yet (although I can't wait to see it because Mommy says she's going to take me and Sissy skiing the first chance she gets.)

The next day, Sunday, we spent the day at Grandma Peggy's and Grandpa Steve's, so we could let Daddy sleep in extra long. Here we are in the hammock. Mommy always lays us next to each other...and as often as not we end up all entwined:

We got to meet somebody new, too--Jane, who was visiting Grandma and Grandpa on her way from Nashville to Jackson Hole, where she lives in the summer. Mommy says we're going to get to go to Jackson Hole and Yellowstone when we're a little older. She also said to tell you that Jane blogs here. I liked Jane a lot and so did Sissy!

Daddy finally came over after his nap, so we could tell him Happy Father's Day! Our dad is the absolute best! (And Mommy's not so bad either.)

Here's everyone between dinner and presents, except Uncle Ben had to leave early to drive home. Daddy and Grandpa Steve both got tools, and me and Sissy also gave Daddy stuffed animals, an owl and a piglet, that he can use when he plays with us. 

Father's Day was so fun! I can't wait for next year!

Love,

Luke
