daddy's are more fun

maybe it's because there aren't usually around for the every day routine. maybe it's a little guilt. dad's are just more fun. they seem to have less concern for keeping fun on a budget. the memories are always a little brighter though when you're hanging with dad (no offense to moms).

1. afton earned new playdoh for her behavior reward. i would have bought the basic pack of 3 or 4 colors. patrick bought this...


...the Dora the Explorer Play-Doh wonderland

2. their daddy daughter date was to the driving range. you may think this was more for patrick but afton's loves to golf and dominated the fun.

3. forget bringing sip cups, daddy's buy bottles of juice and chocolate milk.

4. and take you to BK for lunch to end the day.

I hear that...sometimes it just sucks to be the "resopnsible one"

On their date today, Pepper took Reese to the Zoo and to Cold Stone, where she ate her own Bubble Gum ice cream cone. Dads are definitely more fun.

afton is in love with that bubble gum ice cream. i made the mistake of tasting it once.

I think all you girls spoil your kids evenly. Moms are the ones that can get away with it more often if they didn't have to be so darn reliable. I never did have bubblegum ice cream I didn't like the blue color. But still love bubblegum and blow bubbles daily.

i think daddy's deserve to have a bit more of the crazy kind of fun. they usually get less time with the kids, when cool things just happen, so they have to move it along with money and messes!
