What are you doing for fathers day?

[C_Dave45]

So instead of a big brunch breakfast or a dinner out, we decided to save some money and do stuff around the house. It was my choice. I wanted to get some yard work done, and fixin's for a real good Steak BBQ. Wifey got some flowers, hanging baskets. Did the Father's Day Triad: Home Depot, Canadian Tire, Co-Op.

So all we got were: a few hanging baskets, replacement line for the weed-eater, lawn fertilizer, weed killer, bulbs for the burnt out landscape lighting, Steaks, Corn, salad etc, for the Barbie and filled up the car.

Lets play a game:

How much do you think I spent? (and I didn't even get any booze). Shit is EXPENSIVE!!! and not expensive shit...just little every day shit!!

How much?

This whole weekend is sort of my father's day weekend.
Spent a few hours yesterday with my two boys watching the Play On street hockey tournament and then they (and mom) took me to Red Lobster for steak and lobster (no upper cuts though). Then we went home and I spent the afternoon replacing the heater core on the truck.

This morning I went to the older son's ball hockey game. Now we're just sitting around relaxing and having a casual light lunch.

I just got back from Camping at our spot in Waterton. Was going to take the boat out but there are 4ft swells on the lake. My 14' boat wouldn't like that so much.

My Fiance' went to visit her father and step father (2hours away) with my daughter, and I was stuck in town on-call all weekend.

So, I spent the day with the dog, washed the car, took the dog for a walk then a drive. Eventually got home and BBQ'd myself a big rack of ribs ive been prepping all weekend.

Was decent and quiet. I liked it.

LOL.....Max cheated...he has inside info.


Bourque knows whats going on. Isn't that insane?!!!!!
Almost $500 freakin dollars for not much at all. Course a $108 dollar gas fill up doesn't help. But at every place it was a hundred'n'somethin' here...hundred'n'somethin there.

Well I just finished MAJOR yard work. Got the pond and pump running. Lawn fertilized and cut. Applied some weed killer. Trimmed up all the bushes out front. Ahhhhhh feels good.
Now just firing up the BBQ for T-bone steaks!!.

[racerjim]

I had an amazing fathers day weekend, Won best appearing demo car in the crossfield parade, Then trashed it that night (Demo derbies are insane amounts of fun), Sunday i went to the city for the loops for the troops charity run. then lunch with my dad, followed by supper with the in-laws dad. Great weekend. Ill bet i spent less then Dave.

618.00 is my guess.

Well my parents were out of town for a little while so I did a few things he had been meaning to do, finished the plaster and pained the basement walls. stained and mounted some new banisters for the basement stairs, put the art work back up etc.

Then they came home this morning and went with him out to his cottage and we spent the day drinking beer and building an outhouse

Just played 3.5 hours of volleyball with my dad for fathers day. :D
