Father's Day

The whole family left at around noon to go to MadCity VeganFest. It is the first of what we hope will be an annual tradition. It was packed!! We had initially planned to eat there, but M decided he couldn't eat in such crowded chaos. The event was very well organized, and we left with a few new t-shirts.

We then went to The Green Owl for a delicious dinner. Dej and I ordered the (vegan) eggplant parmagiana. It was the first time we had it, and we LOVED it. Everyone really enjoyed their meal.

From there we went to stroll through Olbrich Gardens. It sprinkled off and on, but we didn't get enough rain to end our visit. After we walked the gardens (where L caught a small turtle and discovered several large frogs), we went through the conservatory. It was Russ' first visit to Olbrich

We came back to our house, so the girls could give their gifts to 'dad', and we had a gift for my dad, too. It was a lovely day, and I was glad we could all be together.
