Jason set the bar pretty darn high when he gave me my Mother's Day gift this year, despite being out of the country on the actual day. I knew I wouldn't be able to top that amazing gift, but I tried to do something nice for him that I thought he'd appreciate for this first Father's Day celebration.
We let Daddy sleep in as late as he wanted and surprised him with his breakfast favorites when he got up - chai tea, bacon, and blueberry pancakes. Madi gave Daddy her gifts, which were a painting she helped make, books, and a card.
We spent the rest of the day relaxing and enjoying the weather. We spent the rest of the day working - Jason had to mow the lawn and our friend Thad came over and spent most of the day helping Jason sand and start painting the high chair for Madi's birthday party this Saturday. (Thank you Thad!! We owe you like three more steak dinners for all of your help!)
Maybe next year Jason will get to spend the whole day relaxing? ;-)
Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads out there!
