But I also have three wonderful daughters, and this weekend we got to spend some time together.
Last night, Sarah (whom I call Josie) and I slept out in our trailer. It was a wet, chilly, blustery night, in other words, typical November Utah weather. But that's okay, because the trailer has a good built-in heater. It also has AC outlets, so we took a little TV and DVD player out and watched movies until we fell asleep. (Before that, we enjoyed some pizza, sodas, and candy bars.) It was just like camping!

| Like camping, but with pizza, movies, and indoor plumbing 100 feet away. |
This morning, Keely, Lydia, and I went to a Daddy-Daughter activity at the church. We had a nice breakfast and made little glass snowman ornaments. Who says dads can't be crafty? It was fun, and hopefully something they'll remember for a long time. (Ensuring this was kind of the point of the ornaments, so I wrote little messages on their backs.)*

| The nice thing about these girls is they're pretty enough to attract the attention of princes, but they don't mind hanging out with their goofball dad. |
* The ornaments' backs, not the girls'
Think you missed an opportunity not writing a message on their backs - written backwards so they could read it in the mirror!
ReplyDeleteYou're aiming low with just princes. You have very beautiful daughters. Can't wait to see the Christmas holiday portrait.
* Whew, you had me worried there for a minute!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Guapola. Kings, emperors, whatever. I agree they're beautiful. They got that from their mother... but they also have my wit and charm!
ReplyDeleteDana, if you knew me well, you'd probably always worry/wonder about things like this. For example, see Guapola's suggestion in the comment above. I'm now thinking, "Hey, that's not a bad idea. If I could just learn to write backwards, that could really work!"
Jonathan's idea of camping involves pizza, movies, and indoor plumbing too! haha I don't understand the concept of "camping lite", but it sounds like fun!
