Happy Father’s Day | Mommy and Me Monday | 488th ed

Happy Father’s Day to Mr. Serious! He’s a pretty great dad for this crew of kiddos. I realized it had been a hot minute since grabbing a picture of all of them with him and since sharing it here. 

They were pretty excited to give him his gift…a new travel coffee mug with pictures! (The last one got water between the layers, so it was time for a new one). They also filled out Dad surveys (pretty consistently, what makes dad mad is not listening to him). The surveys were pretty cute and a great way to involve them in making memories. 

They also thought it was pretty funny to hear each other’s responses to the prompts. 

Mr. Serious will also be getting a pair of cycle shoes for our garage gym and his bike. I have a pair (back from my teaching days over 13 years ago), and know that he will enjoy having them, too. Cycle shoes with clips really make a difference!

He finished off the day taking the oldest two to sleep away camp for a week. If that’s not a dreamy way to spend the day!

To not break my own rules, I grabbed a picture with the girls, too. It’s a little surreal to have the oldest two gone for a week, but we are going to make the best of it at The Most Magical Place on Earth. 

We’re coming for you Mickey!
