speedytriple Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 For me it was waking up early and going shooting with my two oldest sons. One of whom was his first trip with me to the range. Second my dad went with us(have not spoken to him in almost a year) so it was nice to kinda of start to patch things up with him. Then I drove over the inlaws and had a water fight with my two younger sons. Drinking some pale ale and cooking lots of meat on the grill now. Was a very good fathers day.

Kent2406 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 My kids are the greatest! They're only 8 and 5. Their mother (my ex), being the wonderful person she is, couldn't take the time to buy a simple card for them to give to me when I picked them up today even though I always take them to buy her birthday cards, mothers day cards, or whatever because my boys cannot do it on their own but I know it would always mean a lot to them to get their mother something. Anyway, whatever, I was just happy to see them and spend the day with them. At one point we needed to go to the store to pick up a few things and as we're walking through, I noticed my oldest son (Carson) getting excited about something, so naturally, in my usual questioning, asked him what his problem was and he said nothing but wanted to know if he and Kyler (my youngest) could go back over there (pointing his finger). I said sure, let's go. But he didn't want me to go and as I was explaining to him that he and his brother cannot run around the store without me, I realized why he wanted to "go over there". It was where the cards were and I could see the Father day cards and immediately knew what he wanted to do and of course, that alone made me the happiest daddy ever. So playing the "daddy has no idea what they're up to", I said sure go ahead but hurry up. So a few minutes later they come back giggling and laughing trying to hide the cards and of course I continue to pretend like I have know idea what's going on. The cashier caught on quickly and still in my "no idea what's going on mode", I pretended not to notice them handing her the cards and scanning them, putting them in bags and handing them back so they could hide them once again. We get home, they run to their bedroom and return, handing me the cards. They are now proudly being display on the shelf over the tv.Funny thing is, they must have picked the most expensive cards there. Damn things cost $5.99 a piece! Lol! Worth every penny! I'm sure all parents say the same thing but I truly have the most awesome kids in the world! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saralynn518 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 I know it's a few minutes after Father's Day, but I just wanted to say Happy Father's Day to all the dads on OR. That includes dads of humans and of pets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 As great of a day I had with my boys yesterday, my pet kids almost got shot when I walked in last night. Chewed up a baby gate we use to keep them in the back hall. then got sick from eating the gate and puked an shit all over our new carpet. What fun tha was to try and clean up.

buildit Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Not a dad and mine has passed on so doing a ride with friends was a good substitute. Kept my mind off missing my dad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapesmuggler27 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 My daughter is only 4, but her running up to me yelling "happy fathers day daddy" did it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Dad came to the track at lunch. He's never seen me ride before. I didn't have his card or gift on me, so I'm heading over after work today to give him that.Just hanging out and BSing with the old man was a good time though. He drank his Pepsi (not the caffeine free crap my mom makes him drink) and read his paper a little, then helped with race prep stuff when it was time to get serious.I may be 28, but my dad STILL makes it to more of my sporting events than anyone else's parents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Well my 10 year old almost out shot me at the range. My eight year old went with me for his first time and did great. And then like I said the grand water war with my 3 and 5 year old was epic. Would have been a perfect fathersday until the dog crap an pike clean up.

I'm sure all parents say the same thing but I truly have the most awesome kids in the world!Awesome story! My 13yr old made a card and inside it said that he would change my diapers when I get old because he loved me. That right there, was enough for me to almost lose it. And by lose it, I mean my emotions, not my bowels.Of course, later I somehow had to pay for the movies for all 4 of my sons and my girlfriend, but hey.....it's the thought that counts.BTW Super 8 was OK. It's not the best summer flick ever made like some of the reviews would have you believe....but it's decent. Worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
