Celebrating Dad





Yesterday we celebrated Dad's birthday. Eric, Alicia, Dad, Owen, Matt and I went canoeing. It was a bit chilly, but once on the water and paddling we warmed up nicely. Owen did a fantastic job. He had a little stool that he sat on and was at the feet of Matt or I the entire time. He was cute with his little PFD and hat on. After that those of us who felt the cold (Alicia and I) had some hot chocolate. Yummy. My first of the season. Around 6 we went to Grandma and Grandpa's for supper. KFC was on the menu. Good stuff. We also ate "the recipe" a.k.a Brown Sugar Chiffon cake. It is the traditional birthday cake of Grandma Burns. I made it this year. It turned out well. It was a nice day to celebrate Dad.

THIS IS FANTASTIC !!!!!

Love the pictures, and I finally get to sort of meet Alicia.
Great pictures of Grandma Burns too. KFC is always good for a feed of grease. The cake sounds fantastic too. You will have to make it when we are over next (who knows when that will be)

Love to you all Karen
