JOSIE

Recommended Posts

My dads birthday and fathers day are the same day!! I have nothing for him and I feel horrible about it! All I can find that he would LOVE is a stereo that has a USB adapter for his IPOD....but the only one I can find is $300

 

Looking for ideas from the wonderful BDW ladies!

My dad's birthday was last weekend...and with Father's day this weekend, so I did the combined gift too. I went shopping at Kohls. He always needs new clothes, since the only time he gets them is when I get him presents. :)

 

So I got him a new pair of Khaki shorts, a polo, a nice button up shirt, and new swim trunks. All for him to wear in Mexico. And just the summer in general. He loved it. And I spent about $80 since everything was on sale and I had a coupon. :) Love Kohls!

Joe's family is really extravagant w/ gifts and my family isn't. My family would freak out if we bought them gifts like we "NEED" to for joe's fam. My dad died when i was young but for my stepdad we bought him a $100 gift card to Lowe's and for joe's dad we bought a wine kaddy.... its luggage for wine it holds 9 bottles of wine and he's been wanting it an it disgusts me on how much we spent on it for f day (as i call it HA)

My dad is a die hard New York Yankees fan and it's near impossible to get Yankees gear in Toronto. My sis and I had DH pick up some awesome gear when he was in New York a few weeks back.

 

BBQ steak, some specialty beers and a nice afternoon!

I love all the ideas! All of them sound great. I think that we are just going to give my dad a box of chocolate covered cherries(his fav) and a card. We also might get him a bathing suit. Next year we will go all out for father's day, but this year we are wedding broke sad.gif

For my dad and Jessie's dad, it's a definite to get them a new bathing suit for the DW. Can you just imagine what they would wear if we didn't lol Also, an outfit to go along with it.

 

Jessie has a daughter and he soon will be a step dad to my 8 year old. She made a step dad card in school for him. I was very surprised of the fast connection to what's happening because her biological father hasn't been really involved and step out of her life this past January.

For Jessie, I bought him a 37" HD FlatScreen TV for the bedroom. He's an electronics fanactic.....for Valentine's Day he whinned and whinned about wanting one for the bathroom lol I said....what are we on MTV CRIBS or something? lol..... So,i have it hidden in the office of my salon until Sunday. I know he will like it. He does alot for us and I don't always have the money, so I've been working overtime and saving for this.

Thanks for all the wondeful ideas ladies!! I'm so excited - my brother just called me and said that my mom & him will go in on the ipod stereo for his car with me. Now the price isn't so bad :)

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
