Fathers day 2012

I love fathers day.  I just love celebrating that my husband is a father, what a gift!  It is so nice to spend a day just for him, and he never asks for anything and usually chooses to do something the girls would want to do, like swim.........which is one of the many reasons he is a great father.

Many of you may not know this about my husband, but he has a huge heart, especially for the fatherless.  There are so many children who do not have a father around, or a good father figure (and we both know and understand that feeling) Being a father committed to the Lord and his children is huge for Brett! He never wants the girls to feel like he wasn't there, that he wasn't a leader or a great example.  He wants them to know without a shadow of a doubt how much he loves each one of them and how much he loves Jesus.

So on fathers day this year, we did our second annual breakfast in bed.

The girls were just so excited to help!

lovely hair norah

well good morning

well, at least I tried to put a clip in it

haha, i love Sarah's face in this one.  she loves bananas!

and Brett's face in this one

Maya & Norah made these little daddy lollipops we saw in a magazine, I was so proud of Maya she did hers all by herself.  Norah had a little assistance

he can't even contain himself is he so excited about the lollipops

I combined a few different ideas I saw on pinterest and we made this for daddy. 

 

It is a daddy questioner.

I used Microsoft Word to create a document with photos.

I interviewed the girls with several questions

I took the photos using one of the chalk board bubbles Brett made

Then I printed it at Costco for $1.50 &  used an old frame and spray painted it gray.

I love their little answers, I never knew Brett was so tall!

Dad wanted a back massage

and it was pretty hot, so we went to to the pool

 

 and nothing finishes fathers day better than a BBQ, where Papa & Yami joined us

for dessert, dad's root beer floats

  Thank you for being such a great father Brett, your heart is so big and I love watching you love our daughters!
