Fathers day arrived with plenty of gifts (including 4th of July decorations for the lawn) for Dad and a special football cake that has sort of become a legend in our family.

The legend of the football cake happened in the mid to late nineties when the cake was given as a joke to James’ Grandma. James’ grandma was not amused but instead of being upset with James Dad who bought the cake and instigated the whole thing, she got upset with James’ Aunt Peg for letting James Dad buy the cake in the first place.

We did have a nice cake already for her so it was not too big of a deal, but the family always remembers that her daughter got all the blame for the football cake even though she had nothing to do with it.

Happy Fathers Day
