Daddy/Daughter/Daughter/Daughter Date







Most mother's would not let their girls go out with someone who was wanted by the Law. Let alone, one who was wanted for Shootin' the Sheriff. I figured that since all the mother's were letting their daughters go, why should I be the one to hold my daughters back. They were just meeting at the local church, of all places, for a picnic and some square dancing. What harm could come from that?

The meal was prepared by the activity directors and the girls were happy to bring their prize winning salads and desserts. They enjoyed the fine vittles picnic style, with everyone bringing their favorite blanket to dine upon.

The party really took off when all the "wanted" men escorted their Little Ladies to the dance floor. They really kicked up some dirt.

There was many a tear shed when the evening came to an end and all of the men all rode off into the sunset, leaving their little darlings behind.

Oh my gosh! That is too cute. What a lucky dad to have such cute girls to go out with. And what lucky girls to have such a fun dad. Who knew a Spratling man could actually get into something so fun :) Haha.

How CUTE!!! I wish that we lived closer so that we could see some of these cute happenings! I can't wait for Gennovah to be able to go on these outings. Right now it is to the McDonalds playplace, that's as much as a date as Johnny can do at this point, so he just sits and watches her play with other little boys, if they happen to be there. He is such a great sport :) The girls are growing up sooo quickly! They were 5 when we got married! Was it that long ago?!
