Father's Day 2013

Ellie and I had fun putting together Kyle's Father's Day gift this year.  I interviewed Ellie about Kyle (really just expecting her to be silly or say, "I don't know," etc.), but she actually did really well!  I started taping her halfway through because I knew that Kyle wouldn't believe she came up with these answers so quickly on her own.  (And he didn't until he watched the video!)

I read the sentences to Ellie and had her finish them.  Everything underlined is what she said.

We also put together a scavenger hunt.  Kyle found this basket of goodies at the end.

The first clue we handed him read:

We know you like toffee

so we got you a _____

You can find your next clue

where we hang the Christmas wreath.

There he found:

You like to play this

and have a heyday

But before you tee off

you eat a ______.

(Kyle always eats a payday on the golf course!)

 In his golf bag he found this:

You may be a white boy

who's too short to dunk

But in mommy's eyes

you'll always be her _____ _____!

 On the basketball goal he found:

Out in this area

we've had lots of hoppers

They ate our strawberries

so they might eat your _______!

 In the garden he found:

You're such a great daddy

A real king of kings

So we got you a few of your favorite things.

You can find them on the table

where you USED to shoot pool,

Just watch out for baby puke, pee, poop, and drool!

(Kyle's game room is officially a play room w/ a pool table in it!)

 And there's where he got his basket of goodies!

After church and lunch, we went to Grandpa's house to swim.  Papa Clint came over, too!

 LOVE these next two pics!

 Jackson is just kicked back enjoying life!
