Having now been a father for one whole month (Happy 1- month birthday, Clara!) I’m totally psyched for this Sunday: my first Father’s Day. Another reason I’m psyched? Because our friends at Lowe’s have offered to help us celebrate Daddy Day with a handy gift guide mood board along with a totally testosterone-ready prize. So if you’re still scratching you head about what to get ol’ pops, here are a few ideas to get you started. And if you’re our lucky winner, you might just be covered entirely (for the next few years even):
- What’s Father’s Day without tools? Kobalt 22 Piece Set ($50) is a great starter set if your guy happens to be tool-less. It covers all the basics, plus dad gets a tool bag to keep it all organized.
- If dad’s covered in the tool department, help him step it up a notch with a Kobalt 60 Piece Driver Set ($54) that has a bit for just about any job you can think of and then some.
- Now if you really want to splurge on pop this year, upgrade his workshop with a Kobalt 53” Tool Chest ($1798). It’s not your everyday tool storage space – it’s got a radio and mini fridge built in! Like woah.
- If tools aren’t his thing, help him tend to the yard with the Fiskars Momentum Reel Mower ($199) that we’re enjoying. It’s an eco-friendly way to mow, plus he’ll get a little extra workout in.
- Or hook him up with a Troy-Bilt String Trimmer ($100) to keep those edges in check. Bonus: he might just stop mowing over the flower beds.
- You can also send him on a power trip with the Porter Cable 4 Piece Combo Kit ($129) that’s got a cordless reciprocating saw, circular saw, drill and flashlight all powered by the same battery.
- But enough about gifts that put dad to work. What about letting him relax with a nice meal straight from the grill? This compact, but powerful 2-burner Char-Broil Urban Grill ($269) could do the trick.
- Lastly, if he’s like most guys and is just plain hard to shop for. You can never go wrong with a Lowe’s Gift Card, right?
If you read this morning’s post about my experience with the Fiskars Momentum mower, you already know that it’s part of this week’s prize.
What you don’t know is that this week’s winner is also gonna score #7 on our gift guide too. Yep, the Char-Broil Urban Grill is also making it’s way to one of you. That way you can spoil the dad in your life with a one-two punch of prizes (or split ’em up if you got a few fathers to pamper this year). Okay, and we wouldn’t blame you if you just kept ’em for yourself. Can’t beat nearly $500 in free stuff, right?
Now let’s get on to how you enter:
- PRIZE: The Char-Broil Urban Grill and Fiskars Momentum Reel Mower courtesy of Lowe’s, Char-Broil and Fiskars
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “HAPPY FATHER’S DAY _______!” (inserting the names of the dad(s) or father-like figures in your life) and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … why not share something you love about them or how you plan to celebrate, honor or remember them this weekend. Feel free to gush, get sappy, or just tell an embarrassing story that captures why he (or they) make your day.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 16th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

We flew out to see my parents last weekend, so we did a father’s day celebration a bit early. My dad loves to grill out all the time, what great giveaways!

Happy Father’s Day, Dad!
My dad is my hero for so many reasons. I won’t get to see him this Father’s Day because we live about 500 miles away, but I sent my gift early and can’t wait to visit soon :)

No matter how far I live from him, I’ll always be Daddy’s girl and he’ll always be available for me to ask him, how to fix the toilet, build a bench, wire a motorcycle etc.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY DAVID AND HERB!!!
We just bought our first house, so we’re celebrating by having my father over to cook out in our new back yard. And since my fiance was willing to give up things like father’s day with his own dad in order to move closer to my fam here in the midwest, my dad’s been doing his best to fill in the gaps. He helped us move, he showed up to cut the grass the first week since we didn’t have a mower. Then he showed up with a mower. He’s already fixed our disposal and our ice maker. And every time we see him he’s got something new for the garage and a way of giving advice that makes Geoff think they came up with the solution together. “A man needs his tools, Sarah.” And Geoff’s dad gifted us with his mother’s (Geoff’s grandmother’s) engagement ring so that I could really feel like a part of the family when Geoff asked me to marry him and we avoided one the of first expenses of married couple-hood! We really hit the dad jackpot in this house and we can’t wait to start celebrating father’s days of our own in the next few years!
Lynn says

Happy (puppy) Father’s Day, Derek!
We don’t have any human children…yet, but Winston is our fur-baby for the meantime. Derek is an incredibly wonderful husband and fur-baby daddy. He serves in the US Air Force and is constantly gone on trips, flying his plane here and there, serving our country. I’m so incredibly proud of him and all he does, and hope (fingers crossed!) that he’s lucky enough to win this week’s prize, because he really does deserve it! :D

Happy Father’s Day P and D!
I normally find the most hysterical card for Father’s Day. I love going for a laugh over the mushy stuff. This year Father’s Day also falls on our 1 year wedding anniversary so we will be doing double duty since we are spending the weekend with my in-laws.

Happy Father’s Day Ron!
My dad is not the most openly emotional guy but he lets me know how he cares in subtle ways and has always been supportive of me. He is going to be a grandpa in December and I can’t wait to see how that first grandchild of his is going to soften him up!

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY BUTCH!
I was adopted and I lost my beloved father six years ago. This year I reconnected with my biological father. He is a Vietnam hero who was shot down three times and earned many medals the hard way. Neither I nor his three granddaughters have met him yet, as he lives in Thailand, but we are trying very hard to connect very soon. He never had any other children so it will be very special when we can finally meet after 42 years.
Tara Schroeder says
Happy Father’s Day, Dad. You are the best dad to me, an amazing father-in-law to my husband, and a wonderful Poppie to Gracie!! We all love you!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY, JARED!!!!!!!!
My husband and I are the parents of two year old twin boys…needless to say, we have our hands full! My husband works so, so, sooooo hard for us, and I am able to stay at home with both the boys. I am so grateful to be able to be a stay at home mom, and it’s all because of my lovely hubby :) We just moved into our new home about a week ago and he cant wait to get his hands on our yard, but has no mower yet!! What a nice gift this would be :)

Happy Father’s Day, Bruce!
We’ll be celebrating by giving my husband a cute little picture frame that my daughter made this past Saturday at the Lowe’s Build & Grow Workshop.

Sara says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY, LUKE!
My husband became a dad when he was a young 20 years old, but would go to the ends of the earth for his girls (ages 8 and almost 4) and his love for his children only made me fall in love with him even more.
