Cake with French Fries and Ketchup...

Well my friends, it has been a good day. Typical August weather...hot and dry...and my dear husband's 56th birthday. We got up early and met Ryan, Oz and Odie at Bounce U for some head poppin' fun. I tried my best to get into the swing of things....but my crazy hip said "no". Pappaw, however, was all about that bounce. Wore himself out traipsing up and down this huge inflatable slide, pushing Oz. Then in a quick second...down they came..arms and legs flying. Odie got into the spirit of things by mostly trying to run out the bounce room door. Since he just started to walk, he's usually easily corralled...for now. After an hour everyone, including me (at this stage in life my thermostat is broke), was dripping in sweat and, to put it bluntly, pooped. Oz headed on home with us...Ryan took Odie and went home to study.

Oz did not take a nap...and that's regrettable. We went to Fayette Mall so Oz could play in the preschool area, pushed him around in one of those red car stroller thingys and then onto Frisch's for supper. Here's where the cake and ketchup comes in. The folks in the booth just behind us ordered dessert of ...you guessed it...Frisch's Hot Fudge Cake...and that's exactly what Oz wanted. He proceeded to let everyone in Frisch's know about it too. Our God send of a waitress brought our supper and a small portion of Hot Fudge Cake (it deserves capital letters don't you think) for Oz. So...Oz had cake, fries, fish and ketchup for his supper. Mostly in that order too. I reckon this will be another one of those things we won't tell Matt and Ryan about. In fact, I'm certain of it.

Ray got a table saw and some sort of work bench thing for his birthday. He's thrilled. Now if he just doesn't cut one or more of his fingers off...we're golden.

Oz got his bath in Mammaw's beloved "big" tub and has long since been on the third snore. Pappaw too, which is why I'm here waiting for reruns of Sex and the City. That's been the day...mighty fine for us all...well maybe not so much for some of the supper crowd at Frisch's! On that note...'night everyone. TTFN
