On fathers days, I was really sick. I didn't get out of bed most of the day and I even missed church. Well, Eric was a VERY good sport and didn't complain once about the fact that he not only got ignored on Fathers Day, but also got stuck watching the girls the whole day.
We decided to celebrate the next Sunday and the day went much better. While the girls let Eric sleep in at little, we prepared our now famous green eggs and ham. Grace also signed the card she picked out for Eric and wrapped his gift. And yes, he did eat the breakfast we cooked. What a great sport!
Eric is an amazing dad and all of his girls, myself included, are so thankful that he is ours!

Green Eggs and Ham, Part 2
For fathers day, we decided to have another go around with Green Eggs and Ham. This time we skipped the healthy version and went straight for the food coloring. I have to say that the final visual was quite impressive. Here we colored some water with the food coloring and then soaked the ham in it. It actually worked!
Because we didn't want the toast to feel out of place, we added some green to the butter. Tricky, huh?
Mixing the eggs...yum!
Our masterpiece. It actually tasted great, except the ham really dried out after I cooked it. However, if we contract some strange disease or cancer, it can likely be blamed on the excess of green dye #42 we consumed this day.
