Dad is super hard to shop for, isn’t
he? If you’re having trouble coming up with an ah-mazing prezzie
for you-know-who—or ya just wanna see if your best gift ever will
take the ultimate Dad’s Day prize—take note, babes, ‘cause GL’s
editors are sharing their best Father’s Day presents
ever.
“My sister and I went on a hike with
my dad at Old Rag in Shenandoah Valley, VA. It was a tough hike, but
it was one of the most beautiful trails I've ever taken.” –
Karmen F., online contributing editor
“My dad is really hard to shop
for—aren’t they all?—so I try to plan a day out doing something
that he’s been dying to do. This year, the two of us are going into
New York City and spending the afternoon checking out exhibits.” –
Brittany T., online editorial assistant
“I asked him this year what was the
best Father’s day gift I’d given him, and he said it was the
letter I wrote him for Father’s Day two years ago, telling him
thanks for everything he’s done for me over the years. He
even said he still keeps it on his desk, which means a lot! So
it turns out the best gifts really do come straight from the heart.”
– Marie H., contributing writer
“My dad has always wanted a guard
dog--specifically a bulldog named Winston after Winston Churchill. My
mom would never let him get one, but one year for Father's Day we
bought him a stone bulldog statue and told Dad his name was Winston.
To this day, Winston still keeps guard on our front porch.” –
Jessica D., fashion and beauty assistant
“One year I wrote him a letter about
how much he means to me and how much he's inspired me. It was over a
page long, and he still keeps it in his drawl. I could tell it meant
a lot more than anything else I'd ever gotten him.” – Alyssa
B., contributing writer
“It wasn’t Father’s Day but for
my dad’s 80th birthday, I threw him a three-day party with tons of
family. Five years later, he still talks about it.” – Karen
B., founding editor
