It’s time to fire up those grills, gather the family and get ready for that all important day to honor dad, Fathers Day. We need to spend as much time celebrating our Dads’ special day as we do for Mothers Day. For some reason Dads’ get the short end of the stick on this holiday and we need to recognize them for the value they bring to the table as well. So this year forget the” shirt and tie” boring thing, be inventive, be creative and surprise DAD with a well thought out gift and not just the after- thought he usually gets. Dads’ are special guys too and deserve the recognition; so make Sunday June 19Th all about dad and celebrate!!
