Father's Day Weekend

I had last Friday off work and seriously I cherish these days. Why do we have to work again, oh yea because we like things…

Saturday was our diaper bash and we had an absolute blast! We had it at the Flying tee in Jenks and while the guys were playing golf there was a little putting green with some outdoor games where we played with Grady. My in-laws took Grady after the diaper bash and Chad and I enjoyed a day date. We went to the parade of homes in Jenks. It was my first time going in Jenks and to be honest I wasn’t impressed. We are going to the Owasso parade of homes this weekend and I am so excited! We then went to the Mall because we have our family pictures this weekend and I was a little late in getting together everyone’s outfits. I do not like malls, they are more frustrating than enjoyable and you can find anything you need online these days but since it was last minute and I didn’t have time to ship something I decided to beat the bullet and just go. And then I was quickly reminded of why we do not go to malls, we left with only a few of the things that I came in for and wasn’t too happy with the items that we had picked out.

Chad had to work again this past Sunday on Father’s day to make it worse but bright side is that he gets paid for overtime! Grady has been loving our bed lately and as soon as he wakes up he wants to go to our bed to watch cartoons. He also loves playing in our pantry and we have a drawer with all of his snacks and he knows exactly which drawer that is and if the pantry door is open he’s in there. When did my baby get so long! Daddy made it home right around noon and Grady and I were just finishing up lunch so I put him down for a nap and Daddy went down for a nap as well and since it was Father’s day I let him take an extra-long nap. After nap time I started working on Chads Father’s day dinner. We had chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, green beans, and white chocolate strawberry cheesecake. Love planning meals around what you would normally not eat any other day and that cheesecake is to die for. It was the first time for me to make a chicken fried steak and the recipe called for 3 lbs of meat. I knew that was going to be way too much but I figured we could eat on it for a while so I went ahead and bought all 3 lbs and man frying those suckers wore me out. I got Grady a Boston Red Sox tank top to wear for Father’s day because when you have a little boy the cutest thing is matching with their daddy! It was the perfect day and a perfect end to the weekend.
