HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to my babies daddy!
For Father's Day this year I told my hubby that he was not getting much. You see- he's not the "best" at gift giving. He has surprised me a few times but usually it ends up him leaving it to the last minute, rushing to the city and just buying something for the sake of buying something. So THIS year, I was going simple with him. No more I told him....But what's the fun in that???? Then he went on a five day golf trip. And I got bored. And I went on Pinterest. So I threw that idea out the window and came up with a pretty cool idea to incooperate the kids and him and shower him with gifts! Win win for them both! I also had fun doing it! So I guess it's a win for us all!
So what did I make? Homemade scratch n wins (fun for Jack to scratch), made it into a scavenger hunt for gifts (fun for all of them!) and he got some cool gifts out of it too- hello beer, jerky, lottery tickets and a super sweet all black NIXON watch (fun for Kelly)! AND- It looked like he was just getting a card at the start (which was fun for me because I knew what was inside!).
Gift giving is about making the other person feel special. And I wanted the man in my life to know just how special he is! So no more pretending- I am a gift giver and always will be! Hey- it's one of my best qualities :)
Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads!
I love the scratch n' wins!!! Ok, ok, I just love Pinterest. Period. LOL
