father's day

So… uh… Father’s Day is sneaking up on me way too fast. And today, I realized it’s right around the corner!

Last month, I shared all of my favorite Mother’s Day gift ideas, so it seemed only right to round it out with a Father’s Day guide too.

In preparation, I not-so-stealthily asked Robert what were some of the coolest Father’s Day gifts he could possibly get (besides good ol’ quality time with the fam).

And these were what he came up with, a few of his favorites that he already owns, and a few I threw in as perfect ideas to give him and my dad. Just in case you need some gift ideas for dad in your life.

Not gonna lie… I kind of want a few of these for myself.

  1. What a helpful resource! I’ve got to get one more gift for my husband and I’m thinking the retro Bluetooth am/fm radio is perfect! Thank you!

  2. Thank you Lauren for some good ideas for Son’s Father’s Day gift! Corn Hole Boards it is!

  3. Love your ideas! I’m planning a small fold-up table for next to the grill. But I must say, I’m looking forward to when my kids are old enough to choose Daddy’s gifts themselves – that will be interesting. My son, when he was 3, wanted to get Daddy pink slippers for Fathers Day!
