One Great Father's Day Weekend

Father's Day will always be a special weekend in our family, not just because we have two great Dads we love very much. Last year on Father's Day morning, Paul reached over to touch my five-month pregnant belly and felt his daughter kick for the first time. It was an amazing moment for our tiny family. Since Paul was on the sound team for church and would miss the important morning, we decided to celebrate all weekend long.

We started out with Bit's first Tide's baseball game on Friday night. We were stuck in traffic for quite a while, and a truck in front of us decided they had had enough. One guy jumped out of the truck and held up his tickets, asking if anyone wanted them. Paul was ready to negotiate a cheaper price when the guy gave us the tickets for free. Score!! That was the only score of the night, as the Tides were shut out 6-0. Although Avery did enjoy my sunglasses more than the game, she seemed to enjoy herself and even clapped along with the crowd on occasion. You can't quite tell she's at the game, but here we are:

On Saturday morning Paul decided he wanted to go out for breakfast, to D'Egg, our favorite breakfast spot. (It's in Norfolk in the Waterside area on Main Street). We gave him his card and some bookmarks in the shape of ties. (Does anyone want some tie bookmarks? I'm having a blast making them and could make about 50 more!)

We ended the weekend with a grilled steak dinner with Mark and Heather and the kids on Sunday evening. Here's the dads and their kiddos...we could never get all of them to look up and smile at the same time.

Hope you all had a fantastic day with the special dads in your life!
