Father's Day 2020

Father's Day 2020 was a quiet day at home. (as most of our 2020 celebrations have been!)

We started the day with presents and breakfast in bed, followed by reading the Sunday papers in the sun. I made up a platter for lunch and then we had several games of bocce in the backyard.

I also whipped up Simon's favourite Mars Bar slice for afternoon tea.

The Sunday footy on the tv in the afternoon and Simon was truly celebrated on Father's Day.

Plus he has a new cheeky sign in his office to let him know we think he's doing a great job! ;)

Father's Day 2019

The boys kicked off the Father's Day celebrations with a breakfast at school on Thursday.  Crosissants and apple juice for everyone!

Sunday was a little sleep in for Simon then presents in bed. Home made cards, Father's Day stall gifts, his favourite beer, pj's and socks + undies.

The papers, coffee and more croissants followed then a chilled day at home watching the football, building lego and pottering around. 

Later that afternoon we headed over to Simon's parents house for a delicious dinner and to catch up on all of their news after their month in London.  I baked my first cheesecake in years for dessert and think I need more practice...   It tasted ok but looked a little flat! 

Also a Happy Father's Day to my dad who had to work but we'll catch up soon xx

Happy Father's Day to all the dads! How was your weekend?

Father's Day Gift Ideas...

It's Father's Day on Sunday and I thought I'd put a few ideas together for some gifts for dad.

The boy's usually pick something up from the Father's Day stall at school but it's nice to add something else that Simon might like. Most of the time gifts for dad tend to veer towards the practical side e.g. tie, socks and undies but I also like to add breakfast in bed with the papers and maybe a voucher for an experience they can use later on.
