Day 167 - Special Father's Day RAKs

So for Father's Day this year I had thought about sending Chris off to golf with a friend or something else special but just never got it all together.  Such a slacker!  So Chris and I started brainstorming at church this morning on what to do today.  My saving grace was actually the theme while we were sitting there!  It was a challenge to dads to be fathers and not just "baby daddys"...verbatim from the message :).  Our pastor stressed "being present" with your children and not giving in to the myth that quality time is better than quantity of time.  So I was immediately saved and we planned on spending the day together as a family!

To add a little fun to our day we decided to complete one random act of kindness for each year Chris has been a dad.  So we headed off to complete our 6 random acts!  We had an amazing day spending time together as a family and were all blessed by the responses we received at each random act and the people we met.  We wish all the dads out there an amazing, amazing Father's Day!

RAK 1 - The girls made wonderful thank you cards for the ladies that work at our local donut shop.  The ladies were so appreciative and just LOVE seeing the girls!  (Forgot to take pictures)

RAK 2 - Passed out McDonald's gift cards to dads and wished them a Happy Father's Day at Hope Park

RAK 3 - Took coloring books, crayons and books to Acute Kids Urgent Care for the waiting rooms

RAK 4 - Paid for the car behind us at the car wash

RAK 5 - Ice tea for construction workers at a nearby apartment complex (they were SO excited!)

RAK 6 - Took bubbles to our community pool and left with the security guard to pass out to kids as they arrived
