It was a low-key Father's Day for Doug today, but he still enjoyed it very much. For the past three years we have gone to B-Town for Taste of Bloomington, but that wasn't a possibility this summer. There have also been several Father's Days that we have dropped Cam and Meg off at camp and then took a mini-vacation ourselves.
Although we weren't able to travel this year, we did still have a wonderful day celebrating Doug. While Meg was driving back from Bloomington, Cam was playing golf and Cal was working, Doug and I were able to get in a walk and play a few games of Ticket to Ride. Everyone made it home for dinner which included chicken club sandwiches, green beans, pasta salad and grilled potatoes. Doug appreciated the gifts from the Heinisch children - oven mitts from Meg, cashews from Cam and Helter Skelter from Cal. Brett wasn't able to join us, but he made sure to call Doug and wish him a Happy Father's Day. Grandma Jane and Grandpa Cutes joined us in the evening for a bonfire. After opening his presents, Grandpa became the proud owner of an IU football t-shirt. It was close to 9:30 before they left for home and we all headed in to watch some Law & Order. It definitely may have been a quiet day, but it was a nice way to celebrate the rock of the Heinisch family. We have definitely leaned on him quite a bit these past three months.
