First Father's Day 06-21-2009


Daddy and Mason celebrated their first Father's Day together this Sunday! Chris was so excited to be able to celebrate with his son. As soon as it was midnight he mentioned it so that he would get his very first "Happy Father's Day". Mason and I had a great present planned. We bought a kit to put Mason's handprint(s) in a 3-D kind of setting. We were so excited about it but when we went to actually do the project, things didn't work out so well. First the gel stuff got hard before it was even mixed together. Then I tried to use it anyway before it got to bad, but when I put Mason's foot in it, he thought it was fun to squish it all between his toes. It was very cute but alas, the great idea was out the window.

But, I got to thinking about some other things and came up with a cute little card that Mason made for his Daddy. It had pictures of him and Chris on it with a special poem inside. I think Chris really liked it. Of course Mason got him a regular card too.

Unfortunately, Chris had to study for a big exam that's coming up so we didn't get to have the Father's Day I had envisioned...BUT, we have our very own Father's Day planned for next weekend.....with steamed crabs and all!! Mason says that he is very excited....he's never seen these crab things but he hears they are pretty cool and that he must enjoy them if he want's to be a true Marylander :)
