So I'm a week late on the Father's Day thing, but that's ok. We went to a Beer, Bourbon, BBQ festival, so really how much more of a Father's Day celebration can you get? Plus, my husband isn't really the breakfast-in-bed type.
Now for his first Father's Day, I really wanted to make it special. I spent months thinking about the perfect present. Something thoughtful, yet something he'd really want. I pinned things for months and eventually settled on this:
Not because it has special daddy/daughter meaning. Nope, because he sent me a link to the website and "suggested" that I order that day since it was on sale.
At least I got to be creative with the grandpas' presents.
How cute is this? Ok maybe I'm biased, but seriously?
I used a gold paint pen on navy card stock to create the signs. Then, Doodle and I spent about an hour in the backyard fending off mosquitos and (literally) taking 400 photos. p.s. rapid-fire cameras are awesome and necessary. Of those 400, four were acceptable for framing. I'm fine with this. I then printed, cropped, and put them in a frame I just picked up from Michaels, nothing fancy.
We gave them to the grandpas today and they just loved them. Now, I'm totally jealous and want one for us. Although, I probably would have made one for us if someone wasn't so insistent on what he wanted for Father's Day. Next year. Unless the Mets get new jerseys of course.
