what you doing father’s day?

Father's Day, occasions, greetings, tips + tricks

Our Father’s Days are mostly spent at home, or in the mall {when we still have enough energy left after a long week}, or depending on the weather, we’d usually spend the afternoon in the memorial park to visit my parents’ graves. This particular Father’s Day will be no exception. We might flock to the cemetery this afternoon provided the weather will cooperate. The little man will have loads of playtime running around the grassed-lawn + just have a good time with his tito + titas.

I know most of you will find something more worthwhile with your time. Some would probably go out on a Father’s Day date with their dads or their husbands, + would try out those special offer dinner buffets in hotels + restaurants. Some would probably even book a reservation in one of those plush hotels in Makati City to give the most important men in their lives a treat on their special day. Some others would have scoured the world wide web for promos weeks before on which buffet to try or which hotels to check out.  If I were still working in the city, I’d probably book myself + the little man to one of those hotels so we can have a relaxing + lazy Sunday afternoon. + if my Papa were still around, I would’ve saved enough to book a 2-day accomodation, complete with massage + spa services + 5-course meal, for him + my Mama to enjoy. Oh well, it would be impossible to do that now but it sure is enough consolation to know that he is in a better place now, together with my Mama. Am sure he is having a blast celebrating Father’s Day up in heaven.

For those who are luckier to have their fathers around on this special occasions, I’d love to know how you plan to celebrate Father’s Day. Would you be checking out one of those Makati hotels, too? Let me know in a comment below, right?

Anyways, happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful + hardworking father’s out there! Grin

another round of gift ideas for men on father’s day

Father's Day, gift ideas, tips + tricks, occasions

Yesterday I have shared a few gift ideas for men in time for Father’s Day + here are a few more items you might want to consider gifting the most important man in your life on his big day:

  • A new shaving kit can very well be one of the best gifts you might give Dad, as shaving is one of the things he does everyday + updating his shaving kit, + throwing in a bottle of a luxurious shaving oil can be a sure-fire way to jump start his day! 
  • You can print personalized greeting cards + let the little ones scribble their sweet notes for Dad! For the babies who cannot doodle just yet, you can try stamping these cards with their hand or footprints, I bet dad will love this!
  • Let dad take a breather from the hard day’s work by chilling a few bottles of his favorite drinks in the ref + serving them to him when he’s home. You can also decorate these bottles with colorful Father’s Day printables to make them more appealing to the man of the house.
  • For your bookworm dad, a copy or two of his favorite paperbacks will be very much appreciated. Wrap them in colorful papers + attach your personalized note for a complete beautiful package. 
  • Tickets to Sunday’s basketball or baseball game also sounds like a wonderful gift idea for Dad. I bet he will have a splendid time outdoors + witnessing his favorite team win the game!

I am sure you can think of a dozen more ideas on what to give your Dad this Father’s Day + I’d love to read about it in a comment below! Smile

personalized gifts for father’s day

gift ideas, Father's Day, tips + tricks

Father’s Day is just around the corner + I bet most of you are racking up your brains on what to give the dearest men in your life on this special occasion. If my Papa where around, I’d probably bring him + Mama to see a movie or watch a concert or a show, or maybe we can try those buffet meals or go for an out-of-town trip to Tagaytay or maybe Subic. I really have quite a number of things in mind, if only we can get to celebrate the day with our Papa.

For those who are luckier here are a few things you might want to consider giving Dad on his day:

  • His favorite pen engraved with his name. I bet your dad will love this gift idea. Nothing beats a present with the receiver’s name engraved on it! Smile
  • Personalized jewelry gifts. Not most men are fond of jewelry, but I am betting anyone who does will definitely adore you more for this wonderful gift. You can also have their names or a lovelly message engraved on these jewelry gifts.
  • Gym Membership. For your sports buff dad or husband, I bet he will really appreciate a Gift Certificate for gym membership, that way he can start to get serious with his gym routine + work on those muscles! Wink
  • A complete set of tools. For your personal handyman, nothing will delight him more that a box of shiny, new tools he can tinker with!
  • A trip to the spa. The hardworking men in our lives also deserve some pampering especially after working for long hours to provide for his family. A trip to the spa for a relaxing massage + an invigorating foot massage or a manicure {my Papa loves those} will surely be appreciated by Dad!

Whatever you decide to give Dad on his special day, just don’t forget to let him know how much he is appreciated + tell him how blessed you are to have him in your life. If my Papa were around, I will definitely do!
