On Sunday, my brother-in-law Lee invited us over a barbecue at his place. He also wanted to give Ollie his birthday gift. The fun started long before we got to Lee’s place. On the way over we were driving along Idylwyld Drive and noticed a navy blue Aerostar swerve into our lane. He was swerving to avoid a guy on a mountain bike. We never thought anything of it until at the next light, the biker swerved over and kicked the van. Then the van caught up to the bike and tossed what looked to be a lid at him. Then a guy in the Pontiac Bonneville slammed on his brakes to make the guy on the bike wipe out. The guy didn’t wipe out but it left all of us in the car scratching our heads over what we saw.
We got over to Lee’s and he gave Oliver a Laugh and Learn Puppy from Fisher Price. Ollie loves it. It’s kind of funny in that after you are done playing with it, it is silent for a couple of seconds and then it asks for a hug and to start playing with it all over again.
Since Lee specializes in spoiling our boys, he had something for Mark, a giant X-Wing Fighter kite which we will take out to the cabin this summer. We will see how powerful he is with the Force since some of the reviews say this is a hard kite to fly. Lee is coming out to the lake at the end of July so he will get to experience the kite flying himself.
Other than eating too many hamburgers, it was a nice night with the family.
That kite looks sweet!
