Gifting Dad The fun Side of Life

Father's Day Gift Gide 2021

June 16, 2021

Small Town Mom on a Budget

Katina Kennedy

Last year I  existed, but this year I have made a conscious decision to live.  Who knew that working, chores, and trying to be a decent human being wasn't living.  When it comes to gift-giving for loved ones I'm taking the same approach.  My strategy for Father's Day is to "gift fun." Think about it, your fondest childhood memories aren't about unwrapping a shirt or new doll, I suspect that they involve a vacation where your Dad threw you into a pool or taught you how to make a campfire. Here is a shortlist of what our team came up with.
A Mini Photography Session

Treat him with a Professional Shoot that is all about him and his Favorite Little Persons in the world.  Of course, this may not work as a surprise.  We want him to dress to impress or dress in what makes him feel comfortable, confident, and ready to have all eyes on him.

We suggest @Yesenia Photography, Yesenia.etx.photography@gmail.com

A Gym Membership. He talks about getting in shape, but he ends up watching hours of the NBA playoffs and listening to random Podcasts.

We like Planet Fitness for its affordable prices and attention to details like keeping members safe by disinfecting equipment and providing cleaning stations throughout the club.
If Dad would rather get fit, fine, and irresistible at home, check out their at-home workouts for "free."

A session at a Gun or Archery range.  Picking up a new skill like archery or letting off some steam at a gun range can be a fun experience for Dad.

This one we haven't tried, but has good reviews.  If you are in the East Texas area this would be an easy drive. There are so many choices in or close to every City. Here are some typical prices.  We were happily surprised at the reasonable expenses.

Last but certainly not least, the gift of a fun Sporting event. Most Dads have a fav sports team.  Go Steelers!  Lookup schedules @eventbrite sporting events.  Don't forget to purchase at least two tickets so Dad has a buddy to drink a brewsky with.  If the event occurs weeks or months away, incorporate his team's sports gear as a part of his gift. He will Love you for being so cool. You may even get a few things checked off of your "honey-do-list."

There are so many fun experiences to be had. The motto is Live and not to only Exist.

Singleness 🎀💑❤️

  💑 Hi Beauties.  This is the time of year that can be satisfying and happy, yet it can also be statistically depressing based on our relationship status.  Everywhere we look we see cute couples holding hands.  Every channel we turn to, (:especially Lifetime, there are Christmas stories of new found love interests. Singleness:  All of these things that we don't have yet.  But, be patient and thank the Lord for the love he is preparing us for! 💌  Psalms 37:4 says "Delight yourself in the Lord, and he Will give you the desires of your heart."   💌  He knows our desires, because he put those desires there.  God can do Supernatural things.  He can Redeem time, he can also Restore relationships and present you a Love story that we never could have imagined.  The Obedient and Faithful Sisterhood  Katina Kennedy

June 3, 2020 Small Town Mom, Katina Meets Her Dad in 1968 Katina Kennedy, author. A picture can say 1,000 words. Today I came across a framed photo from 1968.  It was at my Daddy's family hearth, and one look at the photograph hiding in a blue frame, pushed to the back caught my attention. The young man on the top left had to be my Dad.  He was  the one standing tall and looking sharp.  The picture was of these seven lads and I wanted to realize what they were celebrating, were they close friends, and what they were  thinking.  Of course my Dad didn't recall what was going on in his mind at that time,  What he did remember to me was fascinating and I was meeting my Dad in his younger self.  High school classmates in year1968 From the upper far left, Lafayette L.
