Elise's Date With Daddy

We got the idea of doing "Dates with Daddy" with our girls from Brad's parenting series. I haven't been the best at being consistent with these, but this past weekend Elise & I went on a date.
Eric & Elise about to go on a Daddy Daughter Date
Ever since Labor Day when she saw the planes flying around with advertisements in tow, she's been asking to see "planes go fast". So we went to Lunken Airport. We couldn't find a great view there, so we headed up to Alms Park, which overlooks the airport.

Elise waving to the planes
Elise liked to wave at the planes and say hi to them. Apparently "Hi" in plane language is a high-pitched shriek.

In between yelling at planes, she enjoyed walking around, and I enjoyed taking pictures.

It was pretty, but not that pretty. (I made the sky a little bluer and the grass a little greener.)
After looking at planes we walked over to the park and she played on the playground.


After that we went to UDF for some ice cream, then headed home for a much-needed nap. I think Elise slept too.

adorable! I can't believe how much older her bangs make her look!

Eric said...

Thanks! She looked even cuter with her ponytail in, but she must have pulled it out as soon as we left. (notice the hair in the first and second pictures)
