Happy Father's Day!

We had such an incredible Father's Day weekend. Yes, we did celebrate all weekend long. Some things just need extra celebration (like my birthday, for example). Friday afternoon was filled with a playdate (for all of us) and then dinner (Mexican - we seriously cannot get enough) followed by relaxing on the couch. We had to get up early on Saturday since it was Caroline's last swim class! I'll do another post on that later. It was the best class by far. Caroline finally kicked by herself, attemped to blow bubbles, AND she did a great job sharing toys with another little girl in the class. She's usually not one to give toys away but they kept handing them to each other. We were so proud! After class we came home, changed, and then went to Pepper Place. Adam picked out a lot of his favorite things for us to use in his Father's Day dinner on Sunday.


We decided to do gifts on Saturday night rather than on Sunday since our day was going to be busy (or so we thought). Adam got a new polo shirt from Caroline, a dress shirt from me, a gift certificate to Butler's from Daisy, and the C and I made him a sweet little book.



On the left side is an interview I did with Caroline and on the right side is her hand print. The best part is that there are many more pages so that every year we can do the interview and the hand print so that one day Adam can look back at a decade of Father's Days!

Sunday morning we went to church and then to lunch (Mexican again...go figure). We had Caroline's one year portraits scheduled but ended up rescheduling them since we decided to change the location. Adam spent the rest of the afternoon watching golf and playing with C. We made a wonderful dinner with all the yummy stuff we got at Pepper Place. We had an heirloom tomato salad, grilled summer vegetables, chicken, and then a peach and blueberry crumble for dessert. We all went to bed full and happy!!

The weekend was very quiet but so much fun. We usually spend holidays with our families but it was just us this time. It was wonderful! It's so nice to see our families, but I forget how much I love celebrating things just us.

Happy Father's Day Adam!

We didn't get any pictures of Adam and C this Father's Day!! I'm so mad at myself for forgetting! We were having such a wonderful day just the three of us that taking pictures slipped my mind. Here's the two of them at her birthday party a few weeks ago.
