Title: Happy Father's Day!
Post by: Francesca on June 21, 2009, 06:53:54 AM
For those of you in countries celebrating it today, are you doing anything special for the dads in your family?  Cute cards?  Meals in bed?  Gifts?

My parents are on the other side of the country so I mailed gifts to them and will give them a call today.  I got my dad a pedometer (he's started going on walks with my mom) and a Neocube http://theneocube.com/.  Check out the website for an amazing video of what it does.  

It's also my mom's birthday today.  I got her a bunch of aerobics dvds, including Richard Simmons Sweatin' To The Oldies.  If you haven't heard of Richard Simmons, you should Google him because he's amazing, in a really crazy way.

That's pretty much what I said when everyone insisted Mother's Daty was in May not March!

Having said that, Father's Day was yesterday, and I got my Dad a deluxe version of a James bond film (Casino Royale) on DVD, he was last spotted rewatching the feature on Bond Girls over and over again....

I got Kurt Kill Bill Vol. 2.  other than that, we didn't do much as it was our first full day back from vacation.  I'm cooking a special dinner tonight, however, since today is our anniversary. :)

I went to lunch with my family to celebrate Father's day with my dad. Haven't had money to get him anything yet, but have an idea of what I want to get him when I do have some extra money.

I'm glad everyone had a good Father's day!  And, Amanda, I hope your special anniversary dinner went well.
