Daddy Daughter Weekend

September 16, 2013 by Sarah

Kev and I had to divide and conquer this weekend.  Brady and I traveled to Baltimore so I could attend my cousin’s fiance’s bridal shower, while Kev and Savannah stayed home and had some fun Daddy/Daughter time. 

My time in Baltimore seemed to go by so quickly, but I enjoyed the girl time with my mom, aunt, sister and grandmother over the weekend.  The bridal shower was a lot of fun and we’re all looking forward to the big wedding day less than 5 weeks from now. 

Brady did great and I really enjoyed my one-on-one time with him.  My dad was quite the babysitter while we were at the bridal shower.  Apparently, he dealt with quite an explosion while I was away, so he earned some bonus points for that – ha!  I left my camera with Kev so I wasn’t able to get any pictures, but it was sort of nice to just enjoy the moments and not worry
about capturing them on film.          

While Brady and I were away, Kevin and Savannah had quite the Daddy/Daughter weekend.  On Saturday morning, they started out with breakfast at Chick-fil-A.  I had registered them for the free breakfast, so they got to eat there for free.  We LOVE Chick-fil-A in our house!!  We’d eat there every day if we could afford it.

Daddy let her wear her favorite dress, but had a bit of trouble getting Savannah’s hair done for the day.  🙂  He told me that he eventually gave up on the bow.

After their fun breakfast together, they headed off to a birthday party for her friend, Zac.  From what Kev said, she had a lot of fun on the rides and was quite enamored with the mouse.  She’s still talking about Chuck E. Cheese and loves looking at her black and white picture from one of the rides.

 

Later in the day after nap time, Kev took Savannah up the street for some frozen yogurt.  They opened up a new place within walking distance, so they trekked up there and split a frozen yogurt.  Kev told me he was a little worried when she was bound and determined to get pink yogurt and proceeded to obsess over the no sugar added strawberry version.  He was able to convince her to go with watermelon, so he was happy.

When I arrived home on Sunday afternoon just before nap time, Savannah was talking up a storm about her weekend.  I couldn’t understand all of it, but I loved “hearing” about her fun time with Daddy.  She seemed excited to see me, but I think she was doing just fine without me.  I look forward to seeing those two continue their Daddy/Daughter bonding!

Did YOU do anything fun this weekend?

I'm actually cleaning/dusting the ceiling fan in our guest room. I saw this tip years ago and I've been doing it ever since, although probably not as often as I should! 🤪

Snag an old pillowcase and drag it off each blade so the dust stays inside of it. Then, wash it in your next laundry load for easy clean up!

This house was built in the 1940s and likely housed a family our size, or maybe larger.  It's amazing to think how our concept of wants and needs have changed since then.

Maybe someday we'll have a larger kitchen, but for now, I'm thankful that this small kitchen allows me to have everything at my fingertips quickly! 😁
"The answer to the purposelessness and hollowness "The answer to the purposelessness and hollowness we feel is found not in us but outside of us. The solutions to our problems and pain aren't found in self-love, but in God's love.

The God who created us, who created the universe, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever, is the one who provides us with the purpose and satisfaction we're seeking. While self love depletes, God's love for us doesn't. He showed us his love by sending Jesus to die for our sins so that we could be forgiven and live forever with him. Self-love is superficial and temporary. God's love is profound and eternal."

"The first myth that you are enough. My counter was this: you're not you'll never be enough, and that's okay, because God is."
