SO: We'll probably go out to brunch, and have a nice day together as a family. There's a local street fair that's fun every year.
LOs: The kids each made me crafts at school, and my son will probably write me a card.

@mrbee: lol pretty sure you're not supposed to start this thread!
I'm sending DH out to play 18 with his dad and brother. Then everyone is coming over for steaks on the grill. The girls will make him a card.

We go to a beer and cheese tasting every year near his parents lake house. I also happen to enjoy this event :). We also got him a Fitbit and I'm sure DD made him something at daycare!

A nice pair of flip flops, a couple dress shirts, and a sweater for next fall (it was dirt cheap on clearance at Banana, so I had to...). Not sure what craft we'll make still, but I plan to do something.

Since we just bought a grill for our new house, I got him a set of grilling tools. And a shave at the Art of Shaving

LO's made cards for DH and I think I'm going to pick up his dream grill tomorrow

He got some rare craft beer, the book "Nelly Gnu and Daddy too", a beer glass etched with the word "Dad" and our children's birthdates that I'm filling with cookie's n cream hershey's kisses and wrapping in cellophane, and I'm going to work with them on some daddy art tomorrow when he's out with a friend.

I’m getting DH and my dad a shared gift (oh, the horrors!) – a round of golf for them. My dad and DH have recently started playing golf together and they both love it.
We’re having a BBQ at our place Sunday evening, so big dinosaur sized steaks for the guys.
ETA: from LO - she "takes" DH to his favorite comic book store every Father's Day and picks him out a gift

A gift certificate to a local golf course for my Dad.
A 3month subscription to a craft beer of the month club for DH. Groupon always has the best gifts, lol.

He's going golfing with the other dads in our family. It is at a pricey course so that's his only gift

From me: A circular saw he's been lusting after for a long time.
From E: A card he made at school and a new Hawaiian shirt. D used to joke that he wanted an ugly tie for each Father's Day...but he pretty much only ever wears ties at weddings and funerals, so he changed his mind and said he wanted a Hawaiian tee (he wears them a lot).
I'm not sure what we're doing yet. He wants to do something with his dad and E, but I don't know what yet.

We're going to do something fun day of--a family bike ride or a day beach trip or something. I got him cards, a shirt, and a book and he's requested this chocolate dessert I make (sigh--it's time consuming, but I will probably try to make it happen).

DH already picked out his gift, a new golf bag! Then we are doing dinner with the extended family.

Tickets to a college football game (his non-local team, will be playing locally this year).
I also just sent him this to work. I know it's not normal to send flowers and my DH is so not a flower type of guy - but I just couldn't pass it up. So stinkin' cute!

I am getting DH a new pair of sunglasses (DS has recently enjoying pulling his old sunglasses off of his face and throwing them on the ground) and I made him a Mosaic book of pictures of him and DS.

Some tennis gear. He's been rocking some older stuff and doesn't have legit tennis shorts so I picked some up.
DS probably made him a craft of some sort.

A couple of insulated beer glasses, whatever DD makes at daycare, and whatever he wants to eat for dinner.
squash / 13208 posts
He wanted to try some Tommy Johns underwear and socks so I got him that.
Also made a funny gift with nuts and beef jerky
At school, DS colored a mug and made a card - DD made her handprint in clay and made a card
We are going to Sesame Place - it was a groupon and sunday is the last day its valid - sorry dh!!!

The actual day nothing as he's working all weekend.
But we're going camping on his days off next week. I might be more excited than he is

Probably a mix of various beers and a home made card because I'm soooooo unorganized this year, it's frightening.

Hopefully a pop art canvas piece that I'm painting for him of Spawn.
Hopefully. Because I am lacking some time outside of work and I think my office would frown on me doing crafts here...

I got DH a fitbit and a mouse pad of pictures of him and LO together for his desk at work. We will go to breakfast at his favorite place and get sushi for dinner since that is his favorite.

@MamaG: I love this! So cute!
I went way overboard this year. I arranged for him to go golfing with my brothers on Saturday because he will never arrange to go for himself. I then ordered him a razor kit from Harry's, some special shave stuff from Khiels and a wallet from Kenneth Cole.
LO made him a craft at school. Can't wait to see what it is today!

Uhhhh, I don't know. We got back from vacation to a flooded basement, so it's looking like a new sump pump, back up sump system, and new flooring in the basement! Fancy gift, right? I might go pick him up some nice liquor. He needs it after a week with my family and then coming home to a wrecked basement!

@fancyfunction: DH LOVES The Art of Shaving.
A Moto 360 watch. He has no idea and I'm so excited to get it for him. We might go see Jurassic World as well!

A book and we'll make some cookies. We're not huge on gifts for days like this, we're more into planning a fun day around what the person loves to do. So we're spending the day sleeping in, riding in big local bike event, then we'll come home and make a nice dinner. I'm really looking forward to it.
