DISC GOLF COUPLES SHOWER AND WEDDING SHOWER HOSTESS GIFT IDEAS

Today I'm sharing another engagement/wedding related post in a series I'm compiling following my son's wedding last Fall.  I'll share a little bit from the disc golf couples shower that our friends hosted for them, and I have a big list of great ideas for shower hostess gift ideas (or really any hostess gift you might need!). My friends that organized the shower decided that they wanted to make it a couples shower, and it was so much fun!  Caleb loves to play disc golf, and my friend had the idea to borrow some disc golf baskets and make it the theme of the shower.  I think she had about 6 stands that were spread out around the property to let the guests have some fun!  The hostesses set up this cute table to welcome people as they arrived.   One of them had a friend make buttons from some of the engagement pictures that everyone could wear at the party then take home as a favor.  They also had some frisbees for favors with stickers in the center marking the occasion.  ...

FATHER'S DAY '24 GIFT GUIDE

Father’s Day is right around the corner, and I’ve  worked together with Ray to compile this Father's Day Gift Guide list full of many of the things that he already has, uses, and loves and would recommend for the Dad you're shopping for!     T here’s a good variety of price points and options for whatever Dad might be interested in, so we hope this helps you  find your perfect gift!  Is Dad a golfer?  In the past, my husband has never been an avid golfer, but over the last few years he’s discovered how much even an hour at the driving range helps him relax and decompress.   He got his first driver and  first set of clubs that weren’t hand me downs last year and has been pleased with the performance and value. We also just tried these new golf shirts and shorts that he said are very comfortable- he mentioned really liking the collar and the different patterns available.
