Having now been a father for one whole month (Happy 1- month birthday, Clara!) I’m totally psyched for this Sunday: my first Father’s Day. Another reason I’m psyched? Because our friends at Lowe’s have offered to help us celebrate Daddy Day with a handy gift guide mood board along with a totally testosterone-ready prize. So if you’re still scratching you head about what to get ol’ pops, here are a few ideas to get you started. And if you’re our lucky winner, you might just be covered entirely (for the next few years even):
- What’s Father’s Day without tools? Kobalt 22 Piece Set ($50) is a great starter set if your guy happens to be tool-less. It covers all the basics, plus dad gets a tool bag to keep it all organized.
- If dad’s covered in the tool department, help him step it up a notch with a Kobalt 60 Piece Driver Set ($54) that has a bit for just about any job you can think of and then some.
- Now if you really want to splurge on pop this year, upgrade his workshop with a Kobalt 53” Tool Chest ($1798). It’s not your everyday tool storage space – it’s got a radio and mini fridge built in! Like woah.
- If tools aren’t his thing, help him tend to the yard with the Fiskars Momentum Reel Mower ($199) that we’re enjoying. It’s an eco-friendly way to mow, plus he’ll get a little extra workout in.
- Or hook him up with a Troy-Bilt String Trimmer ($100) to keep those edges in check. Bonus: he might just stop mowing over the flower beds.
- You can also send him on a power trip with the Porter Cable 4 Piece Combo Kit ($129) that’s got a cordless reciprocating saw, circular saw, drill and flashlight all powered by the same battery.
- But enough about gifts that put dad to work. What about letting him relax with a nice meal straight from the grill? This compact, but powerful 2-burner Char-Broil Urban Grill ($269) could do the trick.
- Lastly, if he’s like most guys and is just plain hard to shop for. You can never go wrong with a Lowe’s Gift Card, right?
If you read this morning’s post about my experience with the Fiskars Momentum mower, you already know that it’s part of this week’s prize.
What you don’t know is that this week’s winner is also gonna score #7 on our gift guide too. Yep, the Char-Broil Urban Grill is also making it’s way to one of you. That way you can spoil the dad in your life with a one-two punch of prizes (or split ’em up if you got a few fathers to pamper this year). Okay, and we wouldn’t blame you if you just kept ’em for yourself. Can’t beat nearly $500 in free stuff, right?
Now let’s get on to how you enter:
- PRIZE: The Char-Broil Urban Grill and Fiskars Momentum Reel Mower courtesy of Lowe’s, Char-Broil and Fiskars
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “HAPPY FATHER’S DAY _______!” (inserting the names of the dad(s) or father-like figures in your life) and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … why not share something you love about them or how you plan to celebrate, honor or remember them this weekend. Feel free to gush, get sappy, or just tell an embarrassing story that captures why he (or they) make your day.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 16th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

Happy Father’s Day Joe!
As someone posted above, I become more and more of a daddy’s girl with every year that passes – and almost 30 of them have!
JayEssJay says
Happy Father’s Day Marion!! You’ve been such a wonderful father figure to my husband. Thank you.
As you mentioned before, it must be a coincidence because we spent all weekend looking for a new mower after ours met its end on Saturday.
susan says
Happy Father’s Day, Jeff and Dad! Jeff is my husband, and he is just such a fantastic father. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner in parenting and in life. And, “Dad” is actually my father-in-law. My real dad passed away 11 years ago, and my heart was broken. However, my father-in-law is like a real dad to me, and I love him so much. He and my mother-in-law do so much for us. I am very, very lucky to have him (and my mother-in-law!) in my life.
Melanie says
Happy Father’s Day, Love of My Life! I am so grateful!!!

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY, ELISEI!

My husband Mike is the best husband and the best father.
Blayne says
Happy fathers day Blair! It’s his first fathers day, and I wish it was possible to let him know how much he means to me and baby B. He is an amazing dad, even at 4 am, and I suspect that a grill might be the perfect way to let him know :)

Happy Fathers Day Thom!
My dad has been drooling over the Kreg tools ever since you covered them on your blog and I told him about them. I am sure that he would love this stuff as well!
He has always been a really supportive father, even now as I’m an adult!

“HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO MY THREE DADS!”
I have been lucky enough to have three dads in my life… my biological father who has always been wonderfully predominant in my world, my ex-step father who I lived with for 17 years and who did my day-to-day raising, and my current step-father who has made my mother into a whole person.
Needless to say Father’s Day is always an eventful day, not to mention the Father-daughter-dance portion of my wedding!
Ben A says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TED!
I’m so excited to bring your first granddaughter (and first grandchild, period) to your house for a Father’s day celebration where I’ll be a dad too (incidentally John, my little one was born on May 14, so I’ve also been a dad for a month).
Harmony says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!

Karen says
Happy Father’s Day, Tom!!! You taught me to recycle and reuse when NO ONE else was doing it! You are a true trend setter!! Love

Happy Father’s Day, Mike! My husband is a truly great guy. Not always the handiest of husbands but a great gardener and willing to learn about fixing and improving the homestead.

“HAPPY FATHER’S DAY Troy & Harold!”
My husband and I plan to mail a gift to his dad since we won’t see him on fathers day. We’re celebrating with my dad over the 4th of July by allowing him to smoke a brisket for us, of course we’ll provide the fixins and a place to stay!!!
Cassidi says
Happy Fathers Day Grandpa!
Love you!

Happy Father’s Day, Denny!
My dad is the reason I’m such a confident and happy person. He always made me believe I was smart and talented enough to do anything I wanted.
Lauren M. says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY, LAWRENCE (aka Lawman)!!!
My father has always been there for me even when I didn’t understand the things that he did! For example, he would not let me go on a date with a guy until he played him in basketball and beat him (fyi, they really didn’t have to win, but he told them they had to)! I didn’t understand why he did that then, but I totally understand now that I’m older. I really appreciate that, and I love him so much :)
Betsey says
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY JG!

When I married you, I was thinking more along the selfish lines—you are attractive, tall, and the perfect man for me. Little did I know what a wonderful father you would be to our girls. It looks like we all lucked out!
JLYN says
Happy Father’s Day Butch !!!!! You are the best father anyone could ever have! I love how you have taught me how to cook, start a gardern, grow my own veggies and fruits, how to keep a home organized and clean..basically how to live and survive on my own as a strong, independent woman. I love you so so much and I am forever grateful for your unconditional love.
