Florida Franklins, Father’s Day and other Friday thoughts…

19Jun09

As of approximately 9:30 AM this morning, the Franklins are officially on their way to become Florida Franklins (formerly WV Franklins). I am so excited to finally have my Butha in the same state as me – let’s hope it sticks this time…

Well, I finally made it to Friday and am looking forward to my favorite part of the week – the WEEKEND. This weekend is Father’s Day and we are prepared with a huge present (under blankets in my garage) for Daddy. I know, it is so unlike me to be prepared this much in advance. Let’s hope a certain 3 year old can contain the surprise for another day and a half.

The Plan: Awesome Breakfast*, Present and cards for Daddy – then… The Beach.
*may or may not include the following: bacon, hash browns, chocolate chip-banana pancakes, eggs and coffee (of course!)

Since this is Father’s Day weekend, I want to say a couple things:

Thank You to my Father for being a wonderful and doting Daddy. Wish we were closer to you – we miss you!, and

Thank You, Christopher for being the best Father to my children I could ever ask for. I feel a Top Ten list coming on…

Roxy and her Daddy
