It’s Time To Start Thinking Of Gifts For Dads

Wasn’t Mother’s Day a lot of fun? We had tasty food, a lot of outside family fun and the Mom in our house was showered with love and unique gifts from the boys.

But now that it is over, it’s time to start thinking of gifts for Dads. Yes Father’s Day will be here before you know it and if you want to surprise him with something unique, there are a few quality sites to help you out.

I was contacted by DadGifts.com and they asked me to look over all of their cool gift ideas for Dads and pick a few out to try.

As a Big Green Egg owner and lover of all things grilling, I naturally went right for the gifts that were BBQ related. There were so many, but in the end I picked out two that I thought would be great to add to my collection. One has not quite worked how I thought it would and one will easily become a regular tool in the kitchen or BBQ drawer.

But before I get to the reviewing, I want to invite you to check out DadGifts.com because they have a lot of Father’s Day gifts no matter the type of Dad on your shopping list. I like BBQ gear, but they have stationary, cool office stuff, accessories for the bar and many other cool categories that I spent way too much time browsing. Whether he is an outdoors or indoors type, the price range will match anyone’s budget.

This Dad Had An Excellent Father’s Day

It is a sunny Monday afternoon, the boys are both sleeping and I have a moment to look back at the best Father’s Day I have ever had.

My wife and boys did a great job celebrating dad yesterday and I can’t wait for many more to come.

A lot of other dads I know were more interested in having a day to themselves. A day to go golfing, fishing or just out on their own. I get that. I like the idea of that. But at this point in my life, I just want to be around my family and spend time together. That is what we did.

First off, I got to sleep in. Sunday is my day to sleep in anyways, so it worked out. Funny thing was, I did not sleep. I was awake when everyone else got up. But I stayed in bed and read a book. What a nice treat.

Once I was up, I had a cup of tea and just let the day come at me.

Dad Rant: Forget Father’s Day, Appreciate Dad Every Day


This is not me. I would never try to type on a hardwood floor with my kids.

It is a few days before Father’s Day. The day where marketing companies, giant brands and your RSS feed tells you that you better be doing something for your dad or else.

Growing up Father’s Day to me was a day to let dad take it easy, do whatever he wanted and to just kick back and forget the daily grind.  But I also remember my dad wanting to have a pretty normal family day instead. Sunday’s were kind of like that all year round. Mother’s Day and Father’s Day were never made to be this big thing for me. Maybe that is why I grew up thinking the way I do.

Why does dad (or mom) only get to be spoiled and celebrated one day a year? That kind of day can happen all year long. Not just on a day that we are told to do it.
