I have a love-hate relationship with Father’s Day.  I love to shower my husband with love and affection and spoil him and help the boys make hand made cards for him with pictures of stick-figured super heroes…love it!  I adore my Dad and making him his favorite pie and telling him how much I love him…love it!  I HATE trying to find something to buy for my two favorite Dads…hate it!!  Usually, gifts bought for my husband end with, “Awww, you shouldn’t have!  Really!  You should not have.”  But this year I’m ready, I’ve got the perfect gift ideas for Father’s Day in hand, and now I’m going to share them with you!  Your welcome.

OK, how about something different, not your wrap it up with a bow kind of gift.  I love this idea…a garage makeover!  My husband says the garage is the only place where he can keep his “stuff” (I could think of a better word for it, but that’s another post).  So helping him make that space more enjoyable would be so much fun…for both of us!  If your hubby is not a fan of surprises, you could make the plans together.  I like the surprise idea though…and Better Homes and Gardens has some great garage makeover ideas here, so check them out!

Yeah, my husband is a geek, so what?  For fellow geek lovers, I found these vintage Star Wars t-shirts.  Yes, my husband would love this shirt.  Yes, I would be embarrased to stand near him while he wore it.  Yes, I would think he was adorable in it.  You fellow geek lovers understand.

This next gift is really more for me than my husband.  While a completely charred piece of chicken is yummy and all, I think  my husband (aka, Grill Master…I’m trying not to laugh while I type that) would benefit from the Grill Alert Talking Remote Meat Thermometer!  A voice prompt alerts you when your food is “almost ready” and “ready”.  Now that’s handy!  I wonder if it says, “You’re burning everything!”  Hmmm…

I know my husband golfs to get a break from the craziness that we call home…so why not make it that much more enjoyable for him!  Check out this Cooler Club Golf Club Drink Dispenser!  This would make my husband’s day!  I can see the smile already…and I count the brownie points.

And finally, because they never grow up…The Digital Speed Sensing Baseball.  Enough said.
