happy father's day - a day late

daddy didn't get the greatest father's day yesterday, but i promised him that i would make it up to him on his birthday. we woke him up a little earlier than he would have liked so that we could get to church early for the dedication. his presents that i ordered didn't arrive on time and the gifts he did get went to madelyn. first his mom gave him some spongebob golf balls (madelyn carried them all over the house) and then maddie and i gave him a golf set to use for teaching maddie to golf. but i think that he still had fun sharing his gifts.

then off to church for the dedication. after church we tried to go out to breakfast but the wait was 2 hours so we headed to einstein's for bagels. the funny thing is that it took us way over 30 minutes to even get bagels. after that we went book shopping with nana for maddie's birthday present(s).

he did get to watch golf so the day was not a complete loss. after dinner we even celebrated madelyn's birthday with nana and papa (via Web cam) instead of a father's day dessert.


poor matt! i think he still enjoyed celebrating his new fatherhood and he definitely got lots of love from maddie and me. i am so fortunate to have matt as a husband and i feel so blessed to see him has a father everyday. he is so loving and patient with madelyn. and i love that he isn't embarrassed to be silly with her. there is just something about a daddy and his little girl that is so special. love.
