Folks are blessed who make|the best of every day
Living by|their own philosophy
Everyone beneath the sun|must find a way
And I have found|the only way for me
I don't believe in|frettin' and grievin'
Why mess around with strife
I never was cut out|to step and strut out
Give me the simple life
Some find it pleasant|dining on pheasant
Those things|roll off my knife
Just serve me tomatoes|and mashed potatoes
Give me the simple life
A cottage small|is all I'm after
Not one that's spacious|and wide
A house that rings|with joy and laughter
And the one you love|in sight
Some like the high road
I like the low road
Free from the care|and strife
Sounds corny and seedy|But, yes, indeedy
I like the simple life
Life could be thrilling|with one who's willing
To be a farmer's wife
Kids calling me Pappy|would sure make me happy
Give me the simple life
Some find it pleasant|dining on pheasant
Those things|roll off my knife
Just serve me tomatoes|and mashed potatoes
Give me the simple life
Nina, come on. They're gonna|be here any minute.
Okay. We'll be right down.
Father of the bride.
I never thought I'd say this, but that|whole experience Pas a piece of cake...
compared to the roller coaster|I've been on this past year.
I admit it took me a while|to recover from the wedding,
but eventually life got back|to normal, which is exactly|the way I prefer life to be.
After the dust settled, I began|to realize what a lucky guy I was.
I had a wonderful home|filled with memories,
and completely paid for;
a wife I love just as much|as the day I married her;
a daughter, independent,|self-sufficient,
married, working, happy;
a son blossoming|in the middle of middle school;
and a son-in-law|gainfully employed,
and very often,|out of town on business.
Life was sweet.
I felt for the first time|ahead of the game.
Then it dawned on me.
I was a mere five years|away from freedom.
Soon I'd be a father with one kid|married and the other off in college.
And that started me|thinking.
What was I gonna do|with all that free time?
Anything I wanted.
Maybe I'd take up|fly-fishing,
travel to exotic places,|climb Mount Everest.
I was feeling|on top of the world.
And that's when|they lowered the boom on me.
It was like that old joke:|''All those who think they have|it made, take one step forward.
Not so fast, George Banks.''
It was about a year ago|when it all started.
Well, nine months ago|to be exact.
I was on my way home from work|on a perfect fall day.
The leaves were golden.|The air was crisp.
And I couldn't help thinking|what a charmed life I was leading.
Yep, I was a happy man.
Hey, hey!
- Hey, Dad, you hear the news?|- What news?
- I don't know. She wouldn't tell me.|- Matty, phone!
- Got it!|- Who wouldn't tell you?
- Hey.|- Hi, George.
Do you think it's|what we think it is?
What? What? What is it?|Somebody tell me what's going on.
Bryan called and said|to be here at 6:00 sharp,
that he and Annie have|some important news to tell us.
This is one of those moments,|George. I can feel it.
Oh, my.
Hi, honey. Oh, don't worry,|okay? I'm sure nothing's wrong.
- How do you know?|- Well, I, I know.
- Oh, you know?|- No. I don't-- I don't really know.
I just know nothing's wrong.|Now, come on. Come on inside.
- Can I fix you a drink, George?|- No, thanks.
Nina, you don't think Annie's|been transferred back East, do you?
No, honey. Something tells me|this has nothing to do with work.
George. George. You sure|you don't want a glass of wine?
'Cause she always said|a transfer was a possibility.
And I, for one,|would hate it if they moved.
Really, George? You?
Well, they live|far enough away as it is.
Dad, they live|a mile from here.
Well, you know, with|the traffic and everything.
Oh, there they are. I just--|I just don't wanna hear|the word ''Boston,'' that's all.
I mean, you know what's|gonna happen, don't you?
First, they're gonna promise|to come home for long weekends.
Then it'll be a week every other summer.|Next thing you know, we're strangers.
We're just names on|a Christmas card list.
We'll be those relatives|out in California.
Bummer Man, he delivers.
- Hello?|- We're here.
- Hi!|- Hello!|- Hi!
- Good to see you.|- Good to see you too.
- Hey, Dad.|- Hi, son.
There she was, my Annie.
Every time I saw her, I had to remind|myself she was a married woman.
To me, she still seemed|like a kid playing house.
- Hi!|- Hi, Mom.|- Hi, hon.
- How are you?|- Good!
Are you feeling all right?
Of course she's feeling all right.|Look at her. She never looked better.
- Hi, Dad.|- Are you okay?|- I was a little late.
So, any news at work?|Any-- Any news? Any anything?
- No, everything's great.|Same, but good.|- Same.
- Busy.|- Busy.
See?
- Hey, Dad.|- Hi.
George. Sorry, George.
As long as the big news wasn't that|my daughter was moving 3,000 miles away,
her husband could call me|anything he wanted.
In spite of myself, I had|actually begun to grow somewhat|fond of Bryan MacKenzie.
Those hors d'oeuvres|look so great. I'm starving.
Mm-hmm.
So what is it, Annie?|What's the news?
- Well, don't you wanna eat first?|- Come on. Tell us. What is it?
- I know what it is.|I got it. I'm positive.|- What?
You bought a house, right? A place|you can remodel a little closer to home?
- A house? Is that it?|- Well--
Well, no, no, no, no.|A house is fine.
Oh, yeah, of course,|a-- a house is definitely good.
That's the big news? A house? Man, I|thought you guys were gonna have a baby.
- Oh, get outta here.|- Us too.
I know. Me too.|That's what I thought.
That's what|we were hoping for.
- Well--|- Tell 'em.
Your wish came true.|I'm gonna have a baby!
- We're pregnant!|- Oh!
- Congratulations.|- Oh, this is so--|- Thanks.
I never liked|that Bryan MacKenzie.
Not from the moment|I laid eyes on him.
Here my little girl was playing house,|and he had the nerve to--
- George.|- What do you say, Dad?
Congratulations.
You too.
Congratulations.
- Oh!|- Grandpa!
''Grandpa''? First that runt|steals my daughter, now he|makes a grandpa out of me.
The baby is due July 26, and I like that|'cause that's a good even number.
Of course, it is|going to be very hot.
But I'm sure she's not|gonna mind. Oh, God. Oh, George.
Can you believe the same doctor|who delivered Annie is going|to be delivering her baby?
- Oh, honey. It's so amazing.|- Yeah.
Oh, George!|I have a great idea.
What if Franck did|the baby shower for us?
- Franck?|- As a favor, honey. George.
What? I thought|you liked Franck now.
- I never actually said|I liked the man.|- Yes, you did. Yes, you did.
When we were at that party|with those people from whatcha-callit,
- you were just raving on about him.|- All right. Well, maybe it slipped out,
but I didn't mean it.
Nina, get a grip.|I'm not gonna go into hock...
to give Annie a baby shower.
I just finished|paying for the wedding.
Oh, now my stomach hurts.|Where'd you put my Tums?
All right, honey. Okay. Okay, okay.|It was just a thought. Calm down.
