Father's Week - 10\06\14



The Butterballs love massages! Rubbing on body lotion always involves a mini massage and the pain of little bumps and bruises are magically massaged and kissed away.

Today the Butterballs have decided to give dad a back massage.




 
After a few minutes of massaging (read: playing with the almond oil),
 the Butterballs decided to use dad's back as a jungle gym \ slippery slide.

I'm not sure who enjoyed this treat more - Calvin or the Butterballs!

Fathers Week Celebrations





Calvin is an amazing husband and an awesome Dad. He works tirelessly to provide for our family and even after a long day at work, he still finds the energy to romp around with the Butterballs.

Going out for breakfast with Dad (while Mom is at work), is one of the Butterballs favourite activities - they get to have ice-cream for breakfast!

Calvin's spur-of-the-moment excursions ensure that the Butterballs jump up and race excitedly to the door as soon as they hear his bakkie pull into the driveway.

My husband is a GREAT dad and although we try to show our appreciation everyday of the year, we like to make Father's Day extra special by dedicating an entire week to spoiling dad!

During Father's Week, Calvin gets a special treat each day to remind him how much we love him and how special he is.

We started Father's Week with a sweet treat
... a giant chocolate cupcake!
...Yum!

Birthday Traditions : Photo Shoot Fun


Both Butterballs are super excited about writing a Birthday Bucket List.
Tamlyn already has her list done even though her birthday is in September,
and her list has changed at least a dozen times in the last week!!!
What have I got myself into??!!

Ethan's Birthday Bucket List is fairly simple...He wants to:
* Fly a kite
* Visit the blockyard. Calvin runs a Construction Company and Ethan loves watching the manufacturing of the retaining blocks.
* Fix stuff....read: Bash things with a hammer!  His favourite toy from the toolbox is his hammer
 which he uses to 'fix' everything from the bathroom door to the kitchen sink!




Ethan is totally crazy about construction, building, fixing (and breaking!)
so I decided to kill two birds with one stone by doing his birthday photo shoot at the blockyard.




This mini construction shoot was sooo fun!!!
Ethan loved every second of it!!




As for his Birthday Bucket List... 1 down, 2 to go!
