Hi Aya,
What you wrote is correct grammatically and would be easily understood, I want to make a few suggestions to make it more natural.
- In English, you usually put the time and date at the end of the sentence, not at the beginning;
- You say "we had dinner" to mean you had food together, and not "we had a dinner". For example, you say "let's go to dinner", you do not say "let's go to a dinner". This is an exception to the normal rule where you must have an article for a noun. You only use the article if the dinner was special, then you want to specify whatever that makes it special. For example, "we had a sukiyaki dinner which was my daughter's favorite food..." or "The Japanese Prime Minister held a state dinner to welcome the Korean President ...";
- "...happy about her dad coming home early for her", not "... happy for...". Using the correct preposition is an indication of your fluency of the English language.

No mistakes that I can see, except that "dinner" has a double N instead of a double E.
Congrats! :)
