Father’s Day is 2 days away…………Have you picked up the perfect Father’s Day gift yet for your baby daddy? I don’t know why I just said that. lol It’s all these late nights I’m pulling lately…..my brain is fried! Anyway…..my husband works hard for our family as I’m sure many of your husbands do. Not only does he see the worst in people on a daily basis (he’s a police officer) but he also commutes an hour each way. When he gets home he’s tired. Physically and emotionally. I try not to ask much of him although on his days off I sometimes a lot saddle him with our busy little boy and run for the hills just for some alone time. We also have 2 girls ages 6 and 9 and when he comes home it’s “Daddy, Daddy, Daddy”. And you know girls…….drama surrounds them. If it’s not drama between the 2 of them, it’s drama between the neighborhood girls. And it’s at times like those I imagine my husband wished he had some of those “Get out of Jail Free” cards like they have in the game of monopoly. Well, poof! Wish granted! May I introduce you to this Funny Father’s Day Gift Idea.

White Chocolate Popcorn
I was going through my baking cabinet looking for something to munch on when I came across a mason jar filled with white chocolate chips. I thought I had found that something sweet I had been looking for only to discover that half of the chips had melted. I guess keeping the jar on the bottom shelf right above the under the counter lights is was not a good idea! I didn’t want the whole jar to go to waste so I popped that bad boy into the microwave, melted the rest of the chocolate. Now, what to do with it? Well, I had always wanted to try some of those popcorn mixtures I’ve seen around so I made some White Chocolate Popcorn.

Father’s Day Printables
Father’s Day is this weekend. Did that sneak up on anyone else but me? Maybe it’s all of the end of the school year and final soccer game and Girl Scout events that have me distracted………..or the housework that never seems to get done. I don’t know, but Father’s Day is THIS SUNDAY so we better get moving if we want to let the dads in our lives know just how much they mean to us. I’ve rounded up a bunch of FREE Father’s Day Printables. There’s lots of great ideas……..take your pick! My husband is working this weekend so hopefully me and the kids can get ourselves together to pull some of these projects off!
Summer Chalkboard + Giveaway with Home Depot and Scotch Blue
This post was brought to you in partnership with The Home Depot and ScotchBlue™ Painter’s Tape.
I am SO excited to share this project with you. Not only do I get to participate in the Ready, Set, Paint Blog Hop sponsored by ScotchBlue™ Painter’s Tape and The Home Depot but I used some power tools for the FIRST time doing this project. Insert cheesy smile!
Chalkboards are so popular these days and so much fun to use whether you are a child or an adult so I decided to make one just in time for Summer. I plan on hanging it on the gate to my backyard for some parties and get-togethers we have planned for this Summer. Heck I even have visions of using it for our Lemonade Stand and the summer mantle.
I took off to The Home Depot today with a few basic thoughts in mind and ya know when you have an idea and it looks amazing in your head until you do it and it turns out to be a huge craft fail? Well, I was hoping and praying that this did not happen to me! Thank God it didn’t and I could not be happier with how this turned out.
