Today we celebrated all the great Dada’s and since we are not in the same country as our own Dada’s (who rocks as well) we put all the focus on our local Dada who does a kick butt job each day. I really lucked out to have found such an incredible man to spend the rest of my life with. I am even luckier that he is the standard set for our girls as they grow up.
He is insanely smart, handsome, caring, funny, adventurous and loving. He makes sure to tell us how much he loves us each day. He reminds us not to take days for granted and to really live in the moment. He works extra hard so he can hang out with us throughout the day and what most people think is impossible, he makes happen. He truly is my soulmate and though we may not get it right every time, we always work on bringing out the good in one another and encouraging each other to be the best we can be. What a beautiful life and family we have been blessed with and there is no one more deserving of this special day than our very own Dada. So let the celebrations begin.
The night before Father’s day, Sophie and I made 8 golden tickets that Dada could turn in for different rewards whenever he wanted. She thought of hers all on her own (help dada with laundry, help dada take dogs out, etc) mine involved (let dada sleep in, coffee in bed, etc). We hid them all around the house and Dada had to go search for all his golden tickets. After his search Sophie decided she wanted to make him breakfast in bed so her and Sabs got to preparing…
Sophie was so excited to give dada all his surprises. She is such a little sweet pea. Next we headed to the beach. I dont have any pics b/c i left my phone at home and we just enjoyed the beautiful day together. Here is one before we left.
When we came home Dada conked out (a nice fathers day nap) and we made some cupcakes (Sophie’s Dada’s day request)
Then as per Dada’s request…Sophie and Mama made some homemade pizza dough the night before and to wrap up Dada’s special day we made our pizzas and then sang Happy Dada’s day with a candle in the cupcakes. It was a brilliant day for a brilliant Dada! We love you so very much!!!!!!
Will caught this on camera b/c it was just too hilarious. While we were eating Sophie was watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on her ipad (the original), and ironically Sabi was watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on her ipad (the remake). They were both on the same exact scene of the same movie in different versions. So bizarre.
