Yesterday was my father’s birthday and Monique’s mother’s birthday, too. Kind of strange isn’t it, having our parents with the same birthday. It certainly has presented some challenges for us over the years, planning and executing the day, but this year was pretty relaxed.
We didn’t leave the cottage for either birthday this year, which made the decision on what to do really easy. We sat out by the lake and enjoyed a relaxing day of doing nothing.
My parents drove up for the day, so we had a little celebration dinner at a restaurant down the road. Actually, it’s more like a truck stop, so the portions are really big. We were all stuffed by the time we left.
We gave Dad his presents and then we all went out on the wharf and sort of played Trivial Pursuit. Dad and I teamed up against the girls, Michael asked the questions and Nicole kept score. Dad and I won.
