Happy Father's Day!

I know I am the "picture queen" as Jackson calls me, so I added lots of my favorite pictures from our Father's Day. Jackson was pleasantly surprised with a "one eyed jack" breakfast and a gift from McKinley wrapped in perfect father day style--in a box!

This year we gave him cedar plank boards for grilling fish, 3 way walkie talkies for boating and camping (perfect for me and mom's shopping excursions too), tickets to Hard Rock Park for July 4th week at the beach, and deep sea fishing trip too for us to enjoy. He esp. liked his card from his little girl.

This one was my favorite of the day--we LOVE downtown and the sky was so blue--what a kodak moment of our little girl with her daddy!

McKinley loved carrying around her little matching purse today! She liked to keep her paci in it for close access!
We had a special Father's Day lunch at an Oyster restaurant and we pigged out! McKinley had her first hush puppy and she loved it as I expected--it is fried! She also got Octopus hotdogs and mac and cheese!

Attack of the Octopus!

She always wants to be a big girl and sit in the big girl chairs.

5 REASONS WHY JACKSON MAKES THE BEST DADDY:

-He always plays with McKinley and puts a smile on her face. She loves for her dad to read to her, put puzzles together, swim in the pool, and play on the playground.

-He is the best role model for being a hard worker, putting his family first, being a silly playmate, always caring for safety, and teaching her the important lessons in life.

- He sees how overboard I go when buying things for her, because I love to spoil, and he doesn't pitch a fit because he likes to see cute little outfits on her too! He also puts up with my honey-do lists and daddy requests.

-He really helps with all parent duties like changing diapers, feeding, bedtime, bathing, and playtime too! I see how much he loves her when he looks at her.

-He provides for our family daily and leads his household as God would want him to. He shows her how wonderful she is and that she is a blessed little girl.

*Jackson, I love you with all my heart and couldn't have asked for a better father for my child. I am so thankful to have you in my life and McKinley is to-she told me :-)
