Celebrating Dad

 This weekend Denis had a birthday and we wanted the day to be all about him.   His celebration weekend was full of a lot of little things that we scattered throughout the weekend and I had fun celebrating the man that always makes me laugh.   

Saturday we took him to see the USS Batfish in Muskogee.  This is a submarine that was used in WWII if my memory is correct.  He loves history so this isn't the first time he has seen this but it was the first time we took the whole family.  My boy loved pushing everyone through the sub so he could go up and start all over again, which we did three times.  I did this with my boy while Denis took his girl on the tour.  She is always interested in learning new stuff when it comes to history.  She is just like her dad.  I am so glad she has him to expose her to stuff like this.  When pushing through the sub with my boy I can't even imagine living in such tight quarters.  All I kept thinking about was the air that they were breathing and how it was not fresh air.  Oh and then there is the whole water thing.  Yes I decided I would have had a problem. 

The day flew by so fast and it always does when you are having fun.  When we left the house that morning we were hoping for the sun and warmer weather so as you can tell in the pictures we did not plan for the temps that we had.  The kids did not have coats and well they are kids so they were fine. 

We topped the whole day off with a visit of an old friend from college.  We haven't seen him in a long time and I love it when all those college memories come crashing back and the smile you remember on your friend hadn't changed at all and the only thing that was different was the fact that we all had kids and we were all trying to be responsible adults now.  No more flying by the seat of our pants hoping that no one noticed that you really didn't know what you wanted to be when you grew up.  Ok so maybe I am still doing this. 

Basically the day was calm and everything planned went as planned and really that is always nice when it happens because with us you never know what kind of day it is going to be.  Happy Birthday and I have loved celebrating all these birthdays together with you and here is to many more.
