No excuse - I'm just really late on this blog entry. But, it's too important to pass by.
A couple of weeks ago we celebrated Father's Day Weekend!! Unfortunately, I had to fly back to Dallas on the afternoon of Father's Day so we made the entire weekend a tribute to Daddy!
Saturday we drove down to Newport Beach (about an hour south) for brunch and then to explore. Brunch was good - the view was better. We sat on a patio overlooking a marina. Those that know Greg well, know that he was in heaven looking at all of those boats! He even asked if one was his Father's Day present....I'm not that good of a wife! haha
We drove around Newport Beach (such a cute city along the water) and stumbled upon a ferry. So, we did the most logical thing - we got on the ferry! It was adorable - it only held three cars and a few bicycles and pedestrians - good thing we didn't have to go far. It was just a short ride to Balboa Island. Again, what a cute place! They have a carnival type area w/ a ferris wheel, merry-go-round, and other rides for the kiddos. There were also lots of shops and restaurants. We headed down to the pier and beach area - beautiful!
From there we drove up to Long Beach. There are definitely areas in Long Beach that you want to avoid, but we stayed down by the water (and more boats). We grabbed a drink and snacks at Yard House, which has a ton of beers on tap. Again, for those that know Greg well, he loves him some cold beer!
Sunday, we walked down to the village for some breakfast at a restaurant we've never tried - it was great!
I cannot even begin to put into words what a great father Greg is. Seeing those two boys together melts my heart - every single day. I know some people think we're "backwards" with me working and him staying home w/ Carson, but it works for us right now. These boys have such a special bond that will last throughout their lifetime. I admire everything that Greg is and does. I knew from the moment I met Greg that he had a kind and loving heart. I just think it's so amazing that he gets to use those gifts only a daily basis with our son. Carson has such a great role model in Greg. I know that Carson will have that same big heart like his daddy.
Happy Father's Day Greg. I love you.
