Father's Day was the traditional...tender filet mignons on the grill (some were so fat they had to get a second shot), Autumn's pasta salad and green salad, Donette's baked potatoes with sour cream and grated cheese, Airie's rolls, blue berry pie and BYU Creamery vanilla ice cream. Afterwards we played croquet and badminton. It was a fun time for all. Thanks for helping us celebrate Dad.
Ready to go!
Posing players.
Baron's was the first ball (black) to become poison and Mom (yellow) was second. The vulture is waiting.
Autumn balancing on the curb and trying to retrieve her ball from the rough...
Here are the last 2 players to reach the finish line.
But they ended up being the winners...Airie 1st Place, Autumn runner-up. No wonder they're smiling. That's gotta be a first!
Time for badminton with the bad boys.
Dad and Mom waiting for that ace serve.

Father's outstanding form...hard to pick up the birdie on a full stomach.

The weekend before Father's Day we had 60 mph winds in Farmington littering the lawns and downing trees around Farmington. This pine was more than 100 years old on Main Street in front of the museum. Sad.
More damage. Our neighbors in the subdivision also lost a beautiful 10' tall tree in their front yard. It took a lot of work to clean up all the leaves, branches, twigs, seed pods, etc. from our yard, but we didn't lose any trees.
