Scavenger Hunt...for Lonnie?!

Our daddy has been working really hard lately. So today while he was sleeping me and the kiddos set up a little scavenger hunt for him around our house. See if you can figure it out.

Envelope #1: You will find clue number one hidden in a very popular place in our home. Often times we go there to retrieve a fresh diaper and wipes.

Clue #1: Nothing Else Matters

Envelope #2: You will find clue number two hidden in a very sacred place in our home. We go to this place numerous times a day to get snacks!

Clue #2: Sad But True

Envelope #3: You will find clue number three hidden in a place we all hate to go. Some of us even cry/whine insisting that we already went there do to our business.

Clue #3: Mama Said

Envelope #4: You will find clue number four hidden in a room that never quite seems to stay clean. Although...it is meant to be a fun filled room!

Clue #4: Master of Puppets

Envelope #5: Lastly, you will find your last clue and possibly your gift hidden in a place that we like to gather around to feed our faces in. (Little Gage had the last envelope!)

Clue #5: "Metallica"

If you are a fan you've probably guessed it by now what Lonnie's gift was. He really has been mentioning how awesome it would be to go to the Metallica concert. So...we got him 2 tickets. Mommy's not going...Uncle Brent will be going with him.

I am so proud of Lonnie and the things that he has accomplished recently. He is an amazing father and I don't think that anyone else could love me as much as he does. He always is so kind and loving...even to someone who is not that easy to live with all of the time. He is always so good about letting mommy get out and have a break from the kiddos...but never takes time out for himself. So I wanted to give him something that I know he will enjoy and give him a little bonding time with his brother.

We love our daddy!

What a good idea. I know what it's like to be a single mom most of the time too. I hope his work is going ok. It can be overwhelming. Cody said he taught a class that Brent was in the other day, don't think he sees Lonny too much though. Hope you guys are doing good, and that the boys had a great time at the show!
