Freedom Friday

I have been exhausted this week and I don't know why. I am hoping to be able to rest up a little bit this weekend although we have some fun things planned! Today I am going to a play date at the mall with some local mommies. Tomorrow should be a lot of fun as well. The library is having a carnival to kick off the Summer Reading Program. And on Sunday we are going out to my father-in-law's (FIL) house to celebrate Father's Day.

Now I have to admit, I won the lottery when it comes to in-laws. We usually get to my FIL's house every Sunday and he always has a huge home-cooked meal for us. We get to visit with him in the "country" and just relax and enjoy nature. He is a very kind and generous man and we are blessed to have him in our lives. He is a great father and grandpa and I hope that he has a great, laid-back Father's Day!


What are your plans for this weekend and Father's Day? Do you have any traditions? My hubby insisted that he get a tie, even though he hardly ever wears them. According to him they are the "official" Father's Day gift. I hope he likes the one I picked out! It's a lot more on the fun side instead of professional.


To all the dads out there - have a WONDERFUL Father's Day! Take time to enjoy your family and be blessed! I hope everyone has a great weekend and be sure to make all the dads in your life feel special!

  2. Here from FF & I totally agree with MSLibLady, I all the sudden really want some chocolate..

    We are also going to the in-laws' house for Father's Day, though in my case, its the ex-in-laws, ditched the jerk, but kept his parents because they are awesome.

  13. had to comment about the tie! too funny! here's a great idea: make him wear the tie and turn it into a photo shoot with him and the kids. If you do this every year you can have a father's day tie scrapbook lol. We do something similar to this but it's on the kids birthdays....my son gets his photo taken wearing his dad's shirt and my daughter has a teddy bear she holds. When you take a photo at the same time each year it's so neat to see how they have changed!
