If you’ve just moved to Cypress Green, the first holiday you will probably celebrate is Father’s Day. Celebrating it in your new home offers a wonderful opportunity to create memorable experiences. Here are some ideas to make the day special:
Breakfast in Bed
Put that new kitchen to work whipping up Dad’s favorite breakfast foods. Consider pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon and fresh fruit. Then put it all on a tray and serve it to him in bed. If he’s not a breakfast-in-bed person, decorate the informal dining area with streamers and signs so he can see how much you love him as he is chowing down.
Let Him Relax
Spa days aren’t just for mom. Set up an at-home spa day with a foot bath, massage and Dad’s favorite relaxing activities. Tell him to spend part of the day dedicating himself to his favorite hobby. Bonus points if he gets to use one of his Father’s Day gifts.
Create Something Together
Work on a DIY project together, such as building a birdhouse, planting a garden or working on the car. You won’t have to do any home improvement with a new Cypress Green home, but if there is a project on his list, offer to help or do it for him.
Lunch or Dinner Al Fresco
Host a backyard barbecue with all his favorite grilled foods. It’s really easy if you opted to install an outdoor kitchen in your new Cypress Green home. Include games like cornhole, horseshoes or bocce ball. If you aren’t proficient in the grilled meat department, set up a picnic in the backyard or nearby park with a basket full of his favorite snacks and drinks.
Play Together
Host a family game night with his favorite board, video or card games. Break in your new media room by hosting a movie marathon featuring his favorite films or a themed series. Provide plenty of snacks and his favorite beverage.
Make Memories
Start making memories in your new home! Spend time sharing stories about dad. Record the conversation for a keepsake. Have a family photo session in and around your new home to capture the special day.
Don’t Forget the Gifts
Create a personalized gift such as a photo album, a framed family photo or a hand-painted picture. Not creative? Give him a custom-made item like a mug, T-shirt or keychain with a special message or photo.
