Okay everyone, sorry for the wait but we had to get back into our normal schedule in the Rigelzoo home after vacationing and some camp. I decided to tell about the second day in Pennsylvania even though the trip in Tennessee was first. This is what happened. I woke up early in the morning to do a little fishing in Beaver Creek which was just down hill from Grandma's house, but first I had to make a little note to tell my parents (still asleep) where I was. After quickly making a note on a page of notebook paper that spelled out "Gone Fishing" I made my way down the stairs as quietly as I could (which is not an easy thing to do in a old house with squeaky floors) and grabbed my gear and took off. Then after fishing for a little while I went back to the house smelling like fish so I had to use soap, lots of it, to make my hands smell like anything but fish. Little did I know that my Grandma had planned something for us, it was my Moms birthday, so of course we celebrated with some cake. So my Grandma brings out an angel food cake with a circle of paper on top saying "Happy Birthday Dawn" and places it on the table. Of course I'm sitting there getting ready to eat some cake, but Grandma had some more tricks up her sleeve. She brought out another cake, which was chocolate with icing on top! She was celebrating all of our birthdays in one day since she can't come to Florida for each of our birthdays. And while she is doing all this, I'm thinking in my head, "ooh, some ice cream would be nice" then I hear Grandma's voice asking me if I wanted to get the ice cream from the cellar! Talk about reading my mind! So now we had a multiple birthday celebration with two cakes and tons of Turkey Hill ice cream (My Favorite!!!)!
This is the cake that was for my Dad, and the rest of my siblings.
And here is the cake for my Mom's birthday.
Hannah was happy to eat angel food cake, even though she probably likes chocolate more.
I really enjoyed eating the cake that my Grandma prepared for us.

So, what you're telling me is, you had cake and ice cream for breakfast? Now that's MY kind of Grandma!
Zach has a few of his details ferhoodled - HIS day was all about fishing and eating cake and ice cream. The rest of us actually had a day including breakfast, lunch and dinner in there ;-)
He really did leave before anyone else was up - but he didn't fish for just 'a little while'. He fished all day!
