Fathers Day 2013

We celebrated Fathers Day in New Zealand this past Sunday which also happened to be the first day of Spring, September 1st.

Darian had made a card for Daddy at school and they also baked Ginger cookies for all dads which was really cool. They had arranged a packed lunch for all dads for the Friday before but Cameron had a 7:30am meeting and couldn't drop Darian off at school so he missed out on that.

Saturday we headed to the park so Darian could let off some energy. He enjoyed playing in the sunshine. We took his ball as well so him & dad played with the ball on the grass which they both enjoyed. As usual, Darian found a steering wheel, which was nailed into the jungle gym and once he saw that, that was all he wanted to play with. We've decided we have to find him a steering wheel he can play with at home, cos no matter which park we go to, he finds something with a steering wheel, a car or a boat and stays there for the duration of our visit.








On Sunday we had a lazy morning. Darian gave Daddy his gift (a ear, nose and eye brow hair trimmer) and after a home cooked Fathers Day breakfast we got ready for church. Darian played a bit while we got ready and we got him dressed in his baseball shirt that uncle Bradley & aunty Shamini bought for him last Christmas and finally fits him. He looked so cool, and dad was super chuffed with his gorgeous boy on Fathers Day.





After church we got home and Darian had a nap. I intended on going to the Zoo for the afternoon but my boys decided they wanted to stay home for the afternoon and have family time.

We then headed to Ponsonby for an early dinner at Thai Classic.




It was a great Fathers Day weekend. I said to Cameron that for the rest of his life he will always have a celebration on Fathers Day and his response, "and the gifts can only get better as Darian gets older". Don't know what that meant but you can draw your own conclusions! LOL!

We are very grateful for such an amazing man that is the head of our home. God has truly blessed us with a strong man of integrity to lead our family. I'm so blessed that my boy has such a wonderful role-model. I love you honey! Happy Fathers Day!
