17 and Father's Day

Kelsey's Birthday landed on Father's day this year so we had a very busy day.  Daddy had to work early..and a long day(12 hrs.).  Chase and Sadi got up early to wish him Happy Father's day and give him a few surprises.  They kids picked out a new shirt for him, made him a book all about the best Dad in the whole world (turned out super cute),
 a few days before we made these ties out of his favorite candies for him.
 No Father's day is complete without a new tie right?  A better look at them....
After Daddy left I baked a cake and we finally woke Kelsey at 9:30 (which in her world is equivalent to 5 a.m.).  We loaded her room with balloons...carrying cash with them...
and gave her breakfast in bed.  Chocolate chip pancakes with bacon (her favorite) and strawberry milk.
The little kids were dying for her to open this gift they picked out for her.  Kind of a joke around here because every time she flys somewhere she talks about how gooood the ginger ale is!  We never buy it (kind of hard to find to be honest)  so we refer to it as "the sky high juice".
We did buy her a few gifts, but she didn't really ask for anything so most of her Birthday was ca$h.  She got a new dress she wanted,
 some new shades and a swimsuit cover up,
 a smash book (which I am totally jealous of), and a few other little things.
She wanted to spend the day shopping, which we did...she bought nothing with all her money.   Sooo like her!  We then headed over to Daddy's work, we had promised to bring him dinner.  We took him some of his favorite Chinese food.  The birthday girl with Daddy....
Since we were at Daddy's work we decided to bowl a bit.  They put us on lane 17 which Kelsey thought was cool...they had no idea it was her birthday.
We had to leave Daddy at work, and headed home for pizza, and then cake and ice cream.  Kelsey chose red velvet cake this year.  It was deliciously rich.  Not sure what this girl wished for this year, but hope it comes true!
