Father's day

What are you guys doing for your Dads? How about for your significant others?

Just trying to steal some ideas...:-)

Re: Father's day

  • Well we are going camping. He is getting to do a fishing tournament. I'm trying to think of something to do. I'm also stumped. He says he doesn't want a card.

  • He's having friends from out of town come stay with us for a week or so, so me getting the house ready and not complaining too much is his gift. I'm also going to make him an all ice cream cake with his favorite concoction from coldstone.

    I started making a list "from DD" of things she loves about her daddy. I didn't get very far and I don't know what form of present this list will take, but it's a start. I'll probably just write it in a card from her. I'm not sure what else I'll get him yet. I'm thinking a nice picture of the two of them for his office.

  • My dad will get a gift card to Lowes or Home Depot.  He is remodeling their home and is always shopping at one of the two for his projects.

    DH is getting Season 1 of 30 0n 30 ESPN documentaries.  I found it on Groupon for $24.99.  He loves watching the documentaries with DS1 so I think he will love it.  I will probably get some other sports memorabilia to go with it, and card from the kids.

  • I got my dad a key chain (silver) that says "The best Dad's get promoted....Pepere (that's what DS will call him) est. 2013" and a coffee mug from Shutterfly with several pictures of my Dad and DS.

    For DH, I got him a key chain that says "A boys first superhero is his Daddy" with DS's first and middle name on the back.  I also got him a Star Wars book for kids (figuring DH can read it to DS - he's a Star Wars nut) and I got him a coffee mug with some recent photos of DS.

  • I'm going to get him tickets to the real salt lake soccer game for the 4th of July. He's also been eyeballing some sperry boat shoes. He spoiled me so I kind of have to go big.

  • I got my dad a coffee mug that says "I love Grandpa" and it has pics of Joey on it, and I got him a keychain with Joey's picture on it.

    For FIL, I got him a lunch thermal to take to work that says "Pop." (That's what he wants DS to call him)

    For DH, I put Joey's footprints on each side of a poem and I'm going to put it in a frame with a picture of them. And also, thanks to @tyrannosaurusbeck‌ I put Joey's handprint on a baseball bc DH loves baseball! Hopefully he likes it.

  • Dh is getting a nice keyboard. He's been going on and on about how he wants his kids to grow up with a piano in the house, but we don't have room for a real one yet.
    Not sure what we're doing for our dads yet.

  • We are heading over to the new outlet mall and DH is going to a movie that he really wants to see by himself and LO and I will go shopping. Then we'll go out to lunch. I'm going to do some sort of handprint art for DH's desk because he doesn't want his patients seeing photos.

    We will get our dads photo mugs because they all drink lots of coffee.

  • making a picnic lunch and hitting up our fav winery with the kiddos, they have an awesome outdoor space kids can run around and have fun while we get our wine on. I DH a bunch of new clothes from a new site I just discovered…. Carbon 2 Cobalt. He likes when I shop for him and I haven't in a long time.
  • I will call my dad.
    My DH is getting a hat, a tshirt and a hoodie from a hunting company he likes. It isn't a surpise, he asked specifically for them. And a card. A 0.99 card. Dudes don't care about cards.

    I got a massage gift certificate and a card for Mother's Day so I think we are about even.

  • We got FIL some movies and we got my step dad a tool. I haven't decided for my dad yet. For H, I'm going to make him a goody basket of all his favorite things. Then I plan to cook him his favorite meal for dinner.
  • For DH's first father's day (DD was almost 1) we made the dad picture. You know the separate photos of LO holding D A D and framed them together. Now that DD is almost 5, DH is really sentimental about that photo. It hangs in our room. I talked about updating it and he was like no way, I love that picture and Tillie was so tiny. This year I had DD paint a mug at a pottery place, bought a record he wanted and will take him out to lunch/do whatever he wants. Those pottery places are good for doing handprint stuff with babies too. We did a platter for my mom at Christmas that came out really cute.
