Happy Father’s Day!

I never got to tell you about our Father’s Day because my water broke the next day and I was a bit sidetracked with all things baby (and loving it!!).

Father's day 2010 (2) Our plan was to spend time with “Daddy.” We thought we would go out to breakfast then hit up the beach or Irvine Regional Park. But because of a work emergency Hot Hubby worked all night long (from 11pm to 4am). Needless to say, he slept in. I took the kiddos out for donuts and had an impromptu idea of making a small donut cake, complete with banners) and surprising my tired love with his favorite coffee.

Father's day 2010 (1)The kiddos and a VERY pregnant me worked on this at a table outside the donut store and everyone who passed commented on how creative we were.

I wanted to say… “Um, if you think stacking donuts is creative, you should see my business!”

It really was a simple idea and it looked cute.

Father's day 2010 (3)  Thanks Lover, for being the best Daddy to our kiddos ever! And for not caring if I don’t ever always make dinner. You are truly the most amazing man on the earth!!

Yep, I just typed that… and I mean it. How do you like them apples!?!?

    What a great family you have! My poor hubby had to work on Father’s Day, so he just got a hug from Jenny when he came home for lunch… LOL.
