Word of the Week: DAD
Father’s day is this coming Sunday (YIKES), and if you’ve got a husband like mine… you have NO idea what to get him. Well, I didn’t. I spent all day yesterday nudging the kids with “We need to come up with something for Dad for Father’s Day!” I ordered something about an hour ago. He is seriously hard to shop for and it takes me weeks to come up with something “good” that I know he will enjoy. So, now that I have something on order, we’ll think of something better 😛
When the kids were little, Father’s Day was so much easier! I could sit the kids down to make things like these cute origami things….
And handmade cards….
And super hero candy bars…
Or M&M treats….
This is a cute idea I hadn’t thought of:
But now that the kids are much older, gift giving takes a lot of thought. This past Christmas he discovered that he likes ‘novelty’ socks. The kids all got socks from Game Stop in their stockings, so I picked him up a couple of pairs, too… he wears them every Friday, lol:
Check out the Sock Drawer and their Father’s Day socks! I really like the “selective hearing specialist” socks, too, hahaha
(I really want the I’m a delicate flower socks, LOL!)
He’s gotten a themed LootCrate before – those are always fun if Dad is a gamer or a geek or a nerd. LootCrate has grown a LOT since our first subscription box years ago. The service is great and the boxes have always been really nifty. When we were getting crates monthly, they had the LootCrate and the LootWear. That was it!
No, you don’t have to buy a subscription… and they have a ‘loot vault‘ you can purchase from, too (yea, that los pollos hermanos apron? we have it LOL!). The Mystery Crates look FUN!!
A couple of years ago, I discovered ManCrates. They have themed crates, projects, ammo cans and even jerky grams. He’s gotten a couple of crates and an ammo can from them as gifts already and they haven’t disappointed. This year he’s getting the Grill Master Crate so he’ll stop cutting steaks and pork chops open while he’s grilling them to see if they’re done 😛
Do you have any special plans for this weekend? Any special gifts on the menu? Because this man is so hard to buy for I’m always looking for different ideas! So hit me with them! Christmas is only 6 months away, lol!
