Last year about this time Dad moved to Silver Oaks Health Campus. I honestly did not think he would be here this Father's Day. He has surprised me and I am thankful. Due to his fall last week I was not able to take him to church this week-at least so I thought. When I got there to take him to church there they said he had dressed himself and was supervision only on mobility. So I decided to see if he could walk with his walker. He did! All the way from his room to the dining room where they have church. After church he walked to the dining room where they were having Father's Day Brunch and then back to his room. He was pretty tired by that time so we took the knee immobilizer off and put him to bed for the afternoon. Here are some pictures I took today.


They always have wonderful food on their brunch tables and Tim always makes it look so attractive. Here you can see the fried chicken, mashed potatoes and mixed veggies. They also had a good baked fish florentine that I enjoyed. Dad always likes the other end which includes scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuit and gravey. Then there is the beautiful salad. The desserts are to "die" for. For some reason I could not get that picture to upload. I cheated and had a small piece of their chocolate cake and 2 bites of a raspberry scone.
This is Dad and I in the courtyard. I am wearing a size 12 blouse! Aunt Joyce and Uncle Hubert always enjoy eating with us on brunch Sundays! I enjoy it too because I can have company and not have to cook or clean house! Love it!
And here is a common scene throughout Taylorsville and Columbus. This is just down the street from me. Enough about the 100 year flood we have experienced.

Awwwh! That's sweet that you spend Father's Day with your Daddy! We missed you both at church this morning! (Gpa T. was the oldest father! He mentioned your dad usually wins!)
Congrats on the small blouse size!!
Thanks for the pictures!
That is so nice that Silver Oaks includes family for special occasions. Glad you Dad is doing so good and that you got to enjoy another Father's Day together!
Congrats on the weight loss...pretty sure I've gained all yours. Hope it all goes away in a couple of months, but I'm not going to get my hopes up too high! I think I used to have a blouse like that...
