A couple weeks ago I got to attend a Daddy-Daughter church activity with Milee. The theme - Nerd Night. Yep, we had to dress up in "nerd" fashion. Being the All-American jock that I am I knew I had my work cut out for me. I mean, what do I know about being a "nerd" ? Well, we did our best. The only thing matching on us is the blue tape keeping our glasses together. (The picture below isn't very great, sorry).
It was quite the evening. We both got to learn new and fun things together. For me, I got to learn how to paint her finger nails green and pink! She got to learn how to tie a neck tie, and even attempted to "shave" me during a lesson on "how to shave your father's face". This particular lesson involved real shaving cream, an actual dad's face, and a large popsicle stick to simulate the "razor". They waited until the last minute to tell us about the popsicle stick and man was I getting worried! Oh and to top it all off, they blind folded the girls!! Yeah, as I was the only father with actual facial hair, the other dads all managed to walk away with little trauma. I on the other hand had shaving cream smashed and embedded into my beard...and before long it was itching and sticky. Milee thought it was hilarious.
In all we had fun and when they handed out awards we took home the "Nerdiest Attitude" award. This award is the blue head-visor thingy I am proudly wearing around my neck. Milee is an over-achiever and actually put it on her head.
