Our Fathers Day

Well, I was a good wife and let George sleep in til 10am. Tell you, it was hard to do, Briana kept wanting to go wake him up, she usually does when she wakes up at 7am. We had a special breakfast, his favorite-Pancakes. I was coaching Briana to say "Happy Fathers Day, Daddy" all morning. That went real good, I was surprised, she kept telling me that she was going to tell him "Happy Birthday, Daddy!", but when he woke up, she told him Happy Fathers Day, Daddy! and gave him a big hug, kiss, and his card. Yup, she sure is a daddy's girl!. I did this card for him, but had Briana sign her name (with my help) and I put in a daughter to father poem inside. He loved it.

We went to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, CA for Fathers Day. We had such a great time. Briana was so in awe with everything she saw and she loved watching the Seals, she kept wanting to go see them. So most of the time we were watching the seals, they were so playful. After the Aquarium closed, we walked around the Harbor and headed home, that was not easy, Briana started to cry and scream all the way to the car, she wanted to go back and see the fishes and the seals, trying to explain to a 2 year old that the aquarium closed and we are not able to go back was not easy. She finally calmed down and as soon as we left the parking structure she was fast asleep. Poor girl was wiped out! LOL!

Here are some pictures from our day.
