Weekend Update...with Aubrey Poehler and Nate Meyers

(If you came here from the peer pressure link on Monica's blog, then scroll to the bottom of this post.)

On Saturday we had a huge yard sale with five other families in our cul-de-sac. I was exhausted afterwards, but glad to get rid of some junk.
Apparently Deacon took exception with an item I was selling:
He kept crawling into it & wouldn't get out!
I wasn't feeling well before the sale (rhyme), and was even worse afterwards. So, for the first time in six and a half years----dat,duh,duh,dah---I called in sick to work. I thought it would be all traumatic for me, but it wasn't. I might try it again sometime. Haha. Ü

That afternoon, Nathan called up another student from the hospital (the one he went on a date with) and they went for a motorcycle ride on this very winding, dangerous road!!!!
Nathan in his new riding gear.

On Sunday, Deac helped make breakfast in bed for Dad. Waffles with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. Then we gave him the card/photo album that we worked on this week:


I'm Gonna LEVEL with you.....


You're the best Dad I ever SAW!
(Surprisingly, it was only mildly awkward posing with the power tools at Wal*Mart and taking my own picture)


No one else can MEASURE up.....


.....you can AXE anyone!

Sure you're a NUT sometimes.....

....but that just makes us love you all the MOWER!

You've got "#1 Dad" NAILED down.

You're TOOLY the best.
Happy Father's Day to a dad who's loved by one and AWL!

haha--glad to see you finally got it posted! Love the pic of Deacon trying to hold onto his 'babyhood' at the yard sale. Super cute idea with the pictures/tools & captions. You are too cute.

Come on, Aubrey, Deacon can still totally fit in his car seat. Just because you can no longer buckle him in it doesn't mean it's too small... Geez..... HA HA.

And your card turned out SOOOOOO CUTE!!!!! The one with you in the store with the saw on your face was totally hot, not awkward at all. It looked like you'd been doing it for years. (HA HA HA. I can't type that without laughing) But I have to ask, aren't you forgetting to post the last page???? ;0)

You are so creative! Cute card! I love that it was only "mildly" awkward for you to pose with tools and take your pic, haha, you crack me up!

Love the card and pics! You are creative! Where did you come up with that idea? That makes me so excited that you finally called in sick! See now that you've done it once it's addicting so you're gonna want to keep doing it! haha Hope you made a lot of moola at your garage sale!
