Sundaes on a Friday

Today we remember my dad. We started off the day with an apple pancake for breakfast. I remember having breakfast with him at Walker Brothers many times and he loved their Dutch Baby and apple pancake. I learned how to make it recently and it's quite delicious. So we honored my dad this morning with a delicious apple pancake.


We followed up gymnastics class with a picnic up at Cabrillo overlooking the city, ocean and mountains. We watched planes and boats. We heard the sea lions, planes, helicopters and people walking about. We checked out the lighthouse.  The kids love the lighthouse for the phones in there.  They always pick them up and call Daddy (there is a recording playing on them with information about the lighthouse history).  My dad always loved planes and peaceful, beautiful scenery. Cabrillo is so beautiful because you get the city, ocean, and mountains all in one place.  He would have loved it. 




And after dinner, we went out for some ice cream. He sure did love his ice cream. Whenever we would travel, he would make sure we had ice cream in each city. So we went out and had hot fudge and caramel sundaes for him.  Now to finish off the evening, I am watching Pinocchio, his favorite Disney movie, while posting this.  We love you and miss you Dad!
