It was definitely hot that day (but then again, what Texas day in June isn't?), so Ben and I decided to head over a little early to go for a quick swim before my family got there. Ben wanted to show me his very improved swimming technique, and he also wanted to get some pointers from his mom (who used to be on the swim team). It was our first swim of the year, and the water felt great!Once my family got there, we ordered Chuy's for dinner and just sat outside on their beautiful back patio soaking up the rays (through my SPF, of course).
After dinner, we passed out some gifts. We gave Ben's dad a John Deere cap, which is something that he's been wanting since he got his John Deere lawn mower, and we gave my dad a couple of really nice dress shirts for work, which when you're looking for a size 18.5" neck, finding one is like finding a needle in a hay sack -- unless you go to Kohl's. We also surprised Ben's dad with a small John Deere Gator, which will be perfect for him to use when taking things down to the shed and when moving things around on their property.
I think it's safe to say that he likes it. He immediately took it for a test drive down in the woods, and rumor has it that he has already taken the lights off to wash behind them and ordered floor mats and break lights online. Although, I can't give him too much of a hard time because my husband washed and waxed it after driving it home from Taylor on Saturday. Like father, like son.
Although, come to think of it, I'm pretty sure that we all had fun on the gator that day.
Thanks again for having everybody over, Kyle and Steve. As always, it was lots of fun!
