Father's Day Desert

Scrummy apple mango cranberry pie topped with vanilla ice cream! 

To celebrate Father's Day for the girls' awesome daddy, M, we decided to prepare him a delicious home cooked meal :) While he relaxed with a good book, N and I got our elbows dirty and prepared dinner and desert! K was blissfully taking her nap but I promised her she will get to put the finishing touches on Daddy's meal.
