Happy Pappy's Day- Part One

I saw this darling questionnaire on a family' member's blog and had the kids answer the questions. At first it was like pulling teeth to get Cade to sit down, but once he did, he had a lot of fun with the questions. I have to point out that they answered these separately, yet managed to answer very similarly. It cracked me up.

In addition to this priceless questionnaire, Kyle received Reeses Puffs cereal from Savannah and Five gum from Cade. Both were hopeful Kyle would share his gifts immediately upon opening, which is why they chose to give him what they did in the first place! Savvy is our cereal girl, and Cade loves gum. How thoughtful.

Despite my utter loathing for the sport (no substantial reason other than it is just creepy to me guys rolling all over each other in those far-from-attractive jerseys), wrestling has become a dominating factor in why my children love their Dad, which is pretty apparent in the questionnaire. Lucky for you, here are some action packed shots of what a typical Sunday summer evening is like in the Woodbury household:


Let's all jump on Daddy!
A choke hold with the legs. Savvy loved this one as you can tell by her attempt to grin.


This time it was Cade's turn to try a leg-lock move. I don't think his legs should be able to contort like that without making a cracking sound, don't you think?


Savvy's favorite WWF move:


Though it doesn't look like it, Savannah is mid-slap here in this shot. She was really taking pleasure out of hitting the daylights out of Kyle's shin. It shouldn't come as a shock to me that even when I try to catch her with a camera, she looks guileless and cute. That is Savannah's personality to a T!


He's in a head lock and still smiling....


the end.
