Lots of Pics... and don't forget the Borscht!

Here, Hawkins and I get ready to depart to the church picnic. Hawkins is not sure how he feels about walking 2 miles in the heat to go sit in the hot sun, smell asphalt and hotdogs, while watching his parents lose $20 one dime at a time.



Scott sports the World's Greatest Dad tshirt (and my prescription sunglasses?) his mom sent him for Father's Day. Is he a hot dad, or what?



Scott and Hawkins having some quality time lying around on the couch while I am slaving away cooking and cleaning for the two of them... (just kidding!)



Scott takes a drink of Sam Adams out of his new "World Class Dad" mug.



Hawkins disapproves of having his picture taken in the bathtub.



Hawkins bears the heat with his usual cheerful and happy disposition.



Scott poses with his "Best Dad 2007" trophy. He was very humble in accepting the award and made sure to thank God and all the other nominees for their wonderful examples.



Hawkins takes a nap and looks his sweet, adorable self.



A family photo taken on our Father's Day picnic. Scott is so great with the camera! He isn't afraid to take chances for his art and it really pays off here.



Scott and Hawkins at the park looking very cool and very tall.



Hawkins fits right in at the parish picnic in his muscle tee. Seriously, there were some REDdogs there.



Scott's Father's Day loot.



The card Hawkins made for Scott. Inside, there were 10 things Hawkins loved about Scott, including "You make me happy when I am sad and crying," "You love changing my dirty diapers" and "You fart a lot--- just like me!"



Man, it took forever to download those photos. For right now, I'll just say- weekend was a blast. Just me, Scott and Hawkins chillin' out together and doin' our thing. No obligations. It was FABULOUS.

I made the borscht and it ain't half bad. It's a good thing I like it b/c I've got about a gallon of it. It's a little strange eating a hot pink stew, but UnKle Rob was right on with his suggestions. More tomorrow about the weekend.
