Mother’s Day is over and it’s time to start prepping for Father’s Day…
Since my recycled “Reasons Why I Love You” Mother’s Day card got a good response (see it featured here and here), I thought I would make some similar ones for Father’s Day. These ones are, of course, inspired by my cooky-pants dad whom I love dearly (and love to poke fun at).
I don’t know about you, but my husband loves himself some baseball. As luck would have it, so do I, and we have lots of happy memories of attending Dodger games together (most of them before we had kids).
Itching to make your own Father’s Day card this year? I always love homemade cards over store-bought, especially on special occasions like Father’s Day. Here are some of my favorite ideas, including some for the kiddos to help out with!
Father’s Day is so fun when you’re a new dad. I’m sure even the manliest of men can’t help but feel sentimental about their new role in life. I couldn’t really help but swoon when I saw this adorable photo of dad and baby cuddled up in a football blanket. It got me to thinking…
If you’ve ever stopped by my blog before, you know I’m a huge DIY gifter. Not only do do-it-yourself gifts save money, I also find them to be really thoughtful. Every holiday I scour the internet for good DIY gift ideas – i.e. something I would actually be proud to give to someone and something that suits their personality/lifestyle; not something cheesy that I’m giving just because it was free or cheap to make.
When I first started this DIY gift series, I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to find many gifts for men. I, for one, have such a hard time buying gifts for men unless I know exactly what they want. I never grew up with brothers, so I feel like I have no idea…
Father’s Day was fun and relaxing for us. We started the morning by giving the hubs his Father’s Day gift, headed to church, then returned home for naptime (for the baby, not for us, unfortunately). I forgot I had to make cupcakes, so it was a last-minute scramble to the grocery store and back home to bake. After lunch, we headed to my mother and father-in-law’s for a BBQ, and we hung out there for the rest of the day. My husband caught a nap, we watched the Dodger game, ate some yummy BBQ, and did basically nothing. All in all, I think it was exactly what my husband wanted.
Father’s Day will be here in a little over a week. To help you prepare, I’ve rounded up some fun Father’s Day gifts, cards, and printables to help your family celebrate the man you love most (because, let’s face it, he deserves it!).
I’m a huge fan of personalized cards. In fact, I usually don’t give them unless I’ve made them myself. This is equal parts me trying to be creative and give something special, and me boycotting the ridiculous price of a hallmark card. I mean, really, $3.99 for something that will be looked at once and…
