A Prince's Night Out

Since our church doesn't officially host a father/son night, Robbie decided to get all of the dads and sons together from our small group for a father/son outing to GattiTown for March Madness 2013. We talked about the special "Prince's Night Out" for several days with Rylan prior to the big event. On Friday, March 22nd, Robbie and Rylan dressed alike in their Alabama jerseys and jeans and headed to GattiTown to meet the rest of the boys. Rylan was so excited to dress like daddy and gladly waved bye to Kaelyn and I as they left the house. (Kaelyn was a bit disappointed to not be "allowed" for the boys night out.)


Robbie said the night was great and they had a wonderful turnout. Rylan loved playing the bowling game with the balls. He's very into any sporting activity involving balls right now. Robbie taught him the phrase "No Girls Allowed, Only Boys" in the car on the way there. Apparently, Rylan loved saying it over and over and the other boys (Rylan is the youngest) thought he was hilarious. He says it often still today in his loudest voice possible. We laugh over and over because it's so precious.

I count the Lord's blessings daily with our sweet little family. It's times like these when I'm especially grateful for a wonderful husband and daddy that takes time to plan and attend such important events with our children. These are the moments Kaelyn and Rylan will cherish forever. Robbie is such a special daddy and best friend to me, and I'm so lucky he chose me!
