I am in my sixties and some of my favourite memories are times I spent doing things with my Dad. You and he will cherish this for decades. I haven't even mentioned how good the food looks!

Good food, time with family, nothing is better.

Looking great!  Sure wish my two kids had been interested in such things when they were younger.  Maybe I can snag a grandchild or two in the future?

Looking Good ! Always fun when you cook with family. Teaches co-ordination, patience, and those curse words ya always tell Mom you learned at school. LOL

Anyday you smoke is a beautiful day, and to have your kids involved its perfect.
