NBR: Desperately need 60th birthday gift idea

ked1068

My sweet dad turns 60 on Tuesday.  I know, I know, that's in two days.  And I'm LOST on what to get him.  Absolutely 100% clueless.  He's a man who has everything.  If he needs/wants something, then he'll buy it. 

Can you help a struggling girl out??

I will take family photos for you guys. :-)

Ooh sourpop, you beat me to it!

I was so totally going to suggest a picture. My dad's 60th is coming up and I have this great pic of him walking me down the aisle that I am going to give him.

Does he like fishing? maybe some new fishing equipment?  fish finder thing?

If he likes race cars- or would like to drive really fast, you can get him a driving school thing- you know where he's able to drive on a race track at racing speeds?

If he likes good beer -- maybe find a local brewery and get him something.

What great ideas ladies...however we did a family portrait for my mom's 60th (in June). And I gave my dad a great picture of us at my wedding about three years ago.

Ok...so...how about you plan a day with just you and your dad? Do something fun, just the two of you?

For example, with my dad, we would go to a baseball or hockey game, eat popcorn and hotdogs until we felt sick, then go for chicken wings and beer afterward. He would love that more than any material gift.

I like the dad date idea.

I always get my dad a plaid shirt or something else similarly lame. Don't do that.
