I know I suck at blogging but I've been working 3 jobs - my regular teaching job (which I'm finally on summer break as of yesterday!), a job the state's contracted me for, and a job the county has contracted me for… and while the experience and extra moo-la is nice, it is kicking. my. butt. Throw in my favorite job of being a mom and a wife, and planning a non-profit gala + church stuff, and well, there's not a lot of free time.
Anyways, I'll talk more about all that life stuff later.
I wanted to show you the Father's Day gifts Ava Kate I made for Parker and our dads!
Well, first, let me just say there is like a 100+ heat index in eastern NC every day of June and that means it is bloody hot. But we pressed on my friends, we pressed on.
We persevered through the blistering heat even when there were tears from this little diva model and the inspiration for these precious gifts. And I mean lots of tears… or maybe just sweat. I can't say for sure.
But throughout it all, we kept our focus on our goal of just 1 good picture for Daddy and 1 good picture for our Granddaddies. Through all the fifty something pictures we took, we kept waiting for that one smiling face looking at the camera.
At some point we just settled for looking at the camera and not eating the cardboard.
Or maybe even just looking at the camera would be good enough.
Aww. There! Just like that! Hold the pose while I flip the cardboard over to the granddaddy side.
Oh I mean, you could throw it down and turn around and scratch your butt if you'd rather. That's cute. Make sure to hike up your dress to get the best scratching technique. Daddy'll love that.
Oh? We should do it for our granddaddies' pose too?
Eh, or you know, just sit on it. That'll work.
PS. Here's our final products:
