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!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY JEFF!
Some of my most fond memories of childhood are helping my Dad fix things around the house and in the garage. He was very patient and as I got older he sometimes turned to me for advice. Over the years we’ve accomplished numerous home projects and renovations, built a fence, deck, cedar strip canoe, and even changed a car engine. I’m so thankful for all the experiance. I’d love to pay back my Dad with either of the giveaways.

A. Jones says
Happy Father’s Day Dad (aka Jeff)! He is the greatest dad anyone could ask for as he has been an ideal role-model all throughout life. I can not wait to just relax on the patio on Sunday just hanging out, catching up and playing cards.
My dad is truly great and I don’t know what I would do without him.
Tiffany S says

Stphanie says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY, my WONDERFUL and LOVING husband, AARON!
He is the best father in the world to our FIVE beautiful chilren. Not only does he play catch with our 8 year old son, and walk seemingly endless miles through our living room while simutaneously bouncing our 2 month old, he paints nails, sings songs, and gives piggy back rides to our 3 little girly girl’s (7, 5, and 2). He has more patience and love then one dad should be allowed. Watching him with our 5 babies makes me love him more then the day I married him!!

Happy Father’s Day, HONEY! My hubbs (and baby daddy!) is the best. Not only does take care of all the bread-winning, but he spends his weekends equally divided between his role of “father of the year!” and DIY-ing the heck out of our beautiful home (he’s currently building me an addition to house a powder-room, office, pantry on our main level- WHATTA MAN!)
