    I am not a father but was talking with my old man yesterday about what he wanted for fathers day, came to the conclusion he wanted a new pack of broadheads. Got me thinking, anybody hoping for something special this fathers day? Or are you just planning a relaxing day at home?

    I hope to get a new lightweight floor jack or a new pressure washer.

    Spend time with my family, I can buy stuff, can't buy time. As much as I tell my wife that, she still feels the need to buy me something.

    That's true. The older I get I look to buy things that reduce my time doing chores so I can spend more quality time with my family.

    I think there is a reason they made Father's Day in June - it is offseason for hunting. Therefore, I am looking forward to spending time with my family so that when it comes time for my Bday in October I can get out in the woods :)

    i'll have a chaotic day (weekend) with my daugher's travel softball tournament AND my other daughter's dance recital. Mix in one of their birthdays and it just becomes a stressful cluster!
    But I wouldn't trade it for the world... ;)

    I will settle for sleeping in and homemade cinnamon rolls for breakfast. Otherwise, time with my wife and kids in good enough.

    Hoping for a nice breakfast with the family, and maybe the words Dada coming out my daughters mouth. She’s got Mama down pat, time for her to say Daddy lol.

    Am I in the minority here that I think its strange that everyone seems to want to spend time with their family for fathers day? Guess what? I spend 7 days a week with my family. My perfect fathers day is I get to sleep in. My wife and kid are already gone when I wake up. Maybe I go for a bike ride, go golfing with my buddies, grill out. I don't really care. At about 8pm my wife and kid come back home and I tell them how fun my day was. But, what I'm actually doing is going to my in-laws and sitting there.

    That is the best thing in the world, mine is 2.5 already. Do not blink, it goes by so fast. I miss having him sleep on my chest, I always had sleeping issues, but when he was on my chest I would be out like a light.

    My daughter and her husband, my son and his girlfriend and my inlaws came over for dinner, it was a good day all you could ever want on a Sunday afternoon.
