Its the year of the dad blog in case you havent hear – or Dad is the new Mom – these are all one liners that I’ve heard alot this year. They’re small jokes at the fact that Dads in this generation are being more involved. Here is my vlog in hopes of being a inspiration to another dad.
While enjoying the family BBQs please be safe – remember to keep the kids away from the open flames. Dont let the tweens play with fireworks. On the family memories note – dress the kids up in red, white and blue and capture memories. In the end you’ll never have them at this age again and it is a special day that we all celebrate the great history of our country.
ps. the picture here is of my sister and myself circa 1980’s – sorry Heather had to post it 🙂
Father’s day is rolling up and I was doing this BBQ thing but seems thats not happening well good thing in New York City there is always something to do… so this Father’s day will be the first time we’re taking kiddo to the ball game!
It’ll be a great family outing on top of wifey, kiddo and I, we’ll be adding papa (my father). This will be the first time for any of us to the new Yankees Stadium, it’ll be the first ball game for the kiddo and I couldnt be more excited.
I’m pretty pumped to be able to offer this next part… Win 2 tickets to the game!This is going to be a very short contest and will require you to be sitting next to us at the game (I’ll apologize now for kiddo tossing anything at you [just be glad your not the person sitting in front of kiddo]) on top of the tickets you’ll also get a Father/Kid sized Yankees Jersey. Overall how could this not be the best father’s day ever… if you dont have a lil kid and want to take a big one thats fine too – when it cames to baseball we’re all kids at heart.
How to win it… Contest ends 08:59am EST. June 19, 2010.
