We might do the majority of the work (or so we think) but even so, what about the hormonal outbreaks our poor husbands have to endure? My husband puts up with a lot and he is a wonderful father so I should praise him daily and shower him with cool gadgets every day of the year, but thankfully I am only obliged to do so one Sunday in June every year =) This year, I asked him to help me with gift ideas for this story but that was just my ruse to get him to tell me what he really wants. Smart right? Two birds with one stone! These are total guy ideas that I probably wouldn’t think of myself, especially the headphones. Let me break them down for you.
Garmin 660 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator$334.99 – I know it is a bit of a cliche to suggest a machine that gives him directions but it not only will reduce the bickering in the car and save some unnecessary driving, this thing gives up to the minute traffic updates and you can look up businesses and restaurants. It will save time and steam so he will come home a bit less persnickety.
Executive Charging Valet for Cell Phone, Mp3 Player, and More$64.95 – Is he unplugging your hairdryer to charge his phone? (yes). Please do not take over the kitchen island with your gadgets!! Give him his own space, it will keep things organized and make him feel special!
Rock Band Special Edition $119.99 – I promise you wholesome clean family fun with this. I will begin by saying that we in fact do go out with friends to real outside places, but this is the greatest home entertainment – invite people over, get some cocktails mixing and it is the best party ever! It comes with guitar, drum kit and microphone but I highly recommend adding a mike stand for the full effect.
Logitech Harmony One Advanced Universal Remote $194.77 – Never got your other universal remotes to work? This one downloads all the proper codes for all your components online and will switch your TV input, components, whatever that is needed to the proper channel or setting. Now when your parents and in laws visit, you won’t need to be their remote remote anymore.
Heritage Hammock Essentials Package, Khaki Stripe $299 – This might be a self indulgent gift but if you promise him “alone time” on this thing, you will cancel out the guilt. The package comes with everything you need, stand, hammock and cover.
Bose QuietComfort 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones $349 – This will cancel out all the outside noise by creating a certain white noise. What this means is that he will have an acoustic environment where he hears nothing but the music and in fact, can listen at a lower volume because everything is so clean and clear. According to everyone I know who has this, it is life altering. I guess I will find out because this is what I am getting for my hubby. They make customized headsets, ones that are molded to your ears for a perfect fit for $2000 so be happy that this is only $349, even though initially it sounds like a lot.
