Mothers & Fathers Day

These were the gifts I and Ryan gave to our parents on Mothers and Fathers day this year!
We had a lot of fun making these together.

For our awesome moms we made them chocolate covered strawberries and blue corn tortilla chips. AMAZING!

Bought the plates on clearance for $2 @ Home Goods
Cards- Dollar Store $1 each
For our dads we did something different for each of them. I like to keep things simple and do the same gifts, BUT it usually doesn't happen.

Ryan's father we put together a bag of golfing Tee's that had a cute saying on it, "You are a Tee-riffic Dad!" haha I thought it was cute. We also gave him a car stereo that he was wanting that Ryan had in one of his cars from high school. Super simple, and cheap!

My dad loves panning for gold, and my family kinda jokes around with him about it.
We thought it would be funny to get him a bucket of dirt and have him pan for "gold."
Amanda, Dallas, Lacie, Ryan and I pitched our $ in and got a ton of the gold presidential dollar coins and dirt from our backyard. Dad had a ball digging in the dirt and finding all his gold. He ended up using the $ for his metal detector that he had been saving up for!  He absolutely loved it. Funny dad.

I hope they had a good day!
