Father's Day and Alice's broken arm

 Ribs Paul made the day before Father's Day. He smoked them all afternoon - delicious!

 The kids made French toast for Father's Day breakfast.

 Homemade burgers for Father's Day dinner, complete with a tie from Danny:)

 Facetime with Mom/Dad Gabe.

 Hearty breakfast.

 They made up a play and performed it.

 Father's Day. These kids sure love their daddy!

 I love him too!

 Weirdy Grace. She broke the nose pads off her glasses and has had a rough week waiting for her new pair to come in.

 Hanging out in the backyard with Paul after my walk on Monday morning, we found a bunch of cute snails.

 Yummy pork ramen at the Japanese place last night.

 Chicken teriyaki and appetizers like dumplings and lots of tempura stuff.

 Paul's nagiri: raw tuna and raw salmon.

And octopus.
