First Father's Day

Since this was Aaron's first official Father's Day since Cooper was born, I wanted to make it special.  So, I tried to hand-make a few of his presents.  First, I made a card for him.  It looks like a man's dress shirt.  Inside, the shirt was a handwritten note from mommy and Cooper's signature.  Well, his footprint.  I put a gift card to Footlocker in it too.  Then, I stayed up the entire night making cupcakes.  I made 18 with green sanding sugar, toothpicks with white flags and little "golf balls".  I made 6 more with the green sugar and mounds of crushed graham crackers for the bunkers.  In the end, Aaron had himself a nice, edible golf course!  He said, "Wow!  You make me look like I play well, Babe!  All the golf balls are really close to the holes."  I think he really enjoyed it.  We went to Outback later that afternoon and had a nice meal.  It was a good day for daddy!
