Our church is filled with some wonderful people, one of those people is Mendy. Several times a year Mendy organizes events either for Daddy/Daughter, Father/Son, Mother/Daughter, or Mother/Son. It is her ministry to make sure that families have these intentional times with each other while also reflecting on our Lord. I cannot even begin to tell you how much these activities have meant to us over the years. My girls are so excited every time and are looking forward to the next event before this one even starts. We love you Mendy and your heart for families.This
This event was a Daddy/Daughter princess theme because they are daughters of the King. each dad was given an invitation to invite their daughter(s) to the festivities. We started off by making sure that the girls got their nails ready.We had gone a week or so prior to the event so they could pick out new outfits to wear for their special evening.
I had to snap a picture of their cute Valentine shirts that I found for them this year too.
I always enjoy helping with this event so I am there with the team of friends decorating and preparing food for the evening. This year Mendy lined up real Disney Princesses for the younger girls to talk to and sing with. I thought it was just precious to see all their faces light up with such wonder.
There was also a sweet little lady who came and gave a dance lesson to all the dads and daughters so that they could share a proper dance together. This was probably my favorite part of the evening. I felt such joy watching my girls with my precious husband. The love they share is visible in these pictures and i am so thankful that they are growing up with such a wonderful role model. They have a very good idea of how much the Lord loves and values them because of their Dad.
I think they were all having a very good time.
The rest of the evening was filled with some crafts where the dad wrote a note to the daughter , some eating, a little picture taking, and just joy.
Thank you Mendy and Southern Hills for making evenings like this a priority.
