Cory's First Father's Day

I think its safe to say that Cory enjoyed his Father's Day.  Cory set the bar high when it came to Mother's Day.  Of course I can't ever out do him but I tried to make the week special like he did for me. 

Each day of the week Oliver wore an outfit that said Daddy on it.  I love picking out his outfits so this was fun!

 On Monday- I made him the famous chalkboard and sewed a garland for him.  I also had Oliver's handprints and made a card.

Daddy's sidekick

 

Tuesday- I took a picture of both of their shoes and put them in a frame with this poem.  He really liked this.  We hung it on our gallery wall upstairs. 

Daddy's lifeguard

Walk alongside me, daddy

and hold my little hand.
I have so many things to learn
that I don't yet understand.

Teach me things to keep me safe
from dangers every day.
Show me how to do my best
at home, at school, at play.

Every child needs a gentle hand
to guide them as they grow.
So walk alongside me, daddy -
We have a long way to go.



Wednesday- We met Cory for lunch and we made him these 2 crafts.  The DADDY frame, he kept at work for his cubical.

Thursday- I made him this card. 

Daddy's little football

Friday- I made this banner, cupcakes, and beer!! It was a hoot watching me push the stroller with one hand and carry a 6 pack in the other at the grocery store.  The cashier was like yeah cake and beer, my kind of Friday! LOL

Saturday- I gave him these collar tags that I found for $8 on etsy. Stella and Oliver were also having a contest.

Sunday- I gave him this pottery that we made a few weeks ago.  Oliver had fun looking at everything at the pottery store. 

He had to work Saturday morning, but we went to church, and then to my parents for dinner and swimming. 

Sunday we went to Target, Starbucks, and just relaxed.  Cory and I went to 4 peaks for a date that night as well. And you guessed it I had a marg!!

Speaking of which tonight we are having Mexican so I think I may go pour myself a small glass. :)


Cory we love you, you are a wonderful daddy to little Oliver and I love you for that!
