NICE! Man, I miss the days of macaroni necklaces and popsicle stick pencil holders. Hang on to GI Joe From Mexico with all your might.

It's been a wonderful day... All our outdoor plans got cancelled. I ended up wringing out wet towels every 15 minutes as our basement was flooding. Also had tile fall off our bathroom wall

The kids got me some nice sporting goods and a wonderful breakfast of toast though

My wife bought me a few shirts that my four year old picked out. I think I will stick to wearing them around the house.

My wife made me a video collage of pics & videos of our 7 month old son. I got my dad a MP3 player and preloaded it with some of his fav music as he is deathly allergic to computers.

I got my Dad a new bike helmet. Actually, I gave him a gift certificate so he could go pick out his own helmet. That guy has the biggest head ever.

Me and my brother made my dad brunch. Then we made an Alaskan king crab and steak dinner.

We got him an engraved photo album filled with photo's of us from when we were younger all the way up to recent pictures of the three of us. Also got tickets to go to the Stampeders game at the end of the month.

This was my first fathers day as well. I do have a 8 year old Step Daughter and my wife and I just had a baby boy in March. I bought a digital camera for my wife for her birthday a few weeks ago. She took a bunch of pictures of my Baby and Stepdaughter in black and white and had them framed. She also did a couple pictures of my son and a little poem. Very nice. I also got a Flames BBQ cover, a couple books on grilling, and a ESPN Desk Calander from my wife and kids. My mother got me some BBQ utensiles and a variety pack of hot sauce. Decent haul I thought.
