Fathers Day !

Fathers Day Gift Ideas




Are you ready? have you bought your husband or Dad his gift already? Totally forgot about it, is okay. Take a deep breath and quickly check what i have here for you. Simple but amazing gifts you can give to that great PAPA of yours or hubby. 

Most dads don't know what they want on fathers day. Sometimes you have to take long guesses and ask tons of questions. example my mom and i would ask my dad what do you want for fathers day Andrew? he would always say anything or nothing. We would roll our eyes and say common just mention something you like or want. My father worked super hard to give my mom and i always the best. He never asked for anything and was always grateful of what he would get. 

We know he loved plaid shirts, watches and fedoras. He also loved my mothers favorite stew.  My mom and I got him one year a great pair of slippers not any but Uggs a bit pricy but we know he really kept looking at them when he would take us shopping.  my mom would make his favorite stew, get him comfy all day and watch his favorite sport and spent time with us. He would always have a smile on his face. 

Unfortunately he is not with us anymore. But.... There is no remorse waht so ever that we always tried to always not only on fathers day for him to be happy. Dads are suppose to be there for their family no matter what. Hard working souls that help raise a family and try their best to be a great head of the family. My DAD was all of that and much more. 

On this Fathers day try to make his day it doesn't have to be with expensive gift. It can be a beer garden reservation, or a picnic with family or even much better a BBQ.  I added these gifts to give you an idea what you can give him. If he is in to technology you can give him the new apple watch or a great pair of sneaker for his relaxing weekends. If he likes beer you can give him a beer kit super inexpensive and he can make craft beer with his own hand. You get the idea. I hope all you spent a great day. 

Happy Fathers Day to all dads !

XOXO

Fathers Day Gift Guide

Fathers Day Gifts


On Fathers Day i always have mix emotions. Six years ago I lost my dad. It has been a long grieving process. Sometimes i just think he is on a business trip or on vacation. My dad was sweet, strict, caring and very supportive of my decisions. 

On Fathers Day my Dad would spent the weekend with my mom and I. No friends or other family members. My mom would plan the activities and would prepare his favorite Dominican dish which it was  a Sancocho con Arroz which is basically a stew with different kind of meats and vegetables with a side dish of white rice and Avocado. Sooo Yummy I can remember him sitting down and just closing his eyes after the first bite. We would also get him a small present. 

My father was not the biggest shopper and he never asked for nothing special we would just get him something he would usually wear or would be in need of and he would be just fine. He would always say that his best gift on Fathers day was having my mom and I in his life. 

This fathers day my mom would be preparing his favorite dish and also going to the cemetery leaving some flowers. Where ever you are daddy I miss you and love you dearly very much. TE AMO!   

These are some gifts that my father would appreciate and would love dearly. I hope all dads have a Beautiful Fathers Day !
