Father’s day is approaching, I sat on my favorite chaise in my home office daydreaming of what I would like to give my husband for father’s day if there were no limits or boundaries. There might be some obvious choices such as the man cave of his dreams in a building similar to some pre fabricated sheds or a robot to assist him in every way he needs. However, I wanted to keep this list somewhat realistic! So here are my realistic dream gifts for my husband.
#1 A Corvette – He had a Corvette from ’94 – ’97, almost brand new and he’s been dreaming about having another one ever since.
#2 A Honeymoon in Paris and Venice – I have been to both places and when we got married, he couldn’t take time off, so we didn’t have a real honey moon. So I would like to take him to my favorite spots in Paris and Venice.
#3 A Rototiller – He lost his love for gardening, but keeps asking me for a rototiller to start a new one and we never get to actually buy one! So I would love to give him one and enjoy his green thumb! And, while I’m at it, I can also look for some manuals on gardening tips that could help him get started again.
#4 A Boat – Hubby loves fishing, I love the ocean, it would be wonderful to give him a boat and we could both enjoy the ocean, doing what we like the most.
#5 A Beach House in Brazil – He often talks about moving to Brazil, I’m the one against it. We talk about having a shore house and spending the US winters there (it’s summer in Brazil when it’s winter here in the USA).
#6 A Hot Tub – When we had a deck put in our backyard, along with a walkway, we built a special slab for an inflatable hot tub. I would love to find the perfect one, have it installed and buy it to surprise him. But for that I would ideally want to see how it fits into the household and then, maybe, look for some Hot Tubs For Sale online.
#7 Have dinner in Mexico – My husband loves Mexican food, would love to take him to have dinner in Cancun! Ole!
#8 A Cat – He’s crazy about cats, but I’m allergic so we can’t have cats! This is Boots, his cat who died.
#9 Tickets To Celine Dion in Vegas and a weekend getaway. He loves Celine Dion and watching her show would be a dream come true!
#10 A Red Ribbon – Because he always says he wants one, not telling you why or what we will be doing with it! 😉
Now, tell me what’s on your list?

These are great list of gifts for Father’s Day. If I can afford I would like to take my hubby to Alaska because he has been dreaming of visiting that state.

Everytime I have an idea of what I want to get my husband he goes out and gets it himself. But I am with you on most of these… a corvet, paris since we never had our honeymoon, a boat, and I get ya on the red ribbon lol.

Great list! I want a cat too, but someone is allergic in my house too. We are taking our dad to fly a kite. His idea!

There are so many things I would love to give my husband for Father’s Day, but he’s going to have to settle for the comedy show tickets I got him 😉

I think we all would love to give our husband’s what we think they deserve for Father’s Day. I would love to give my husband a fancy vacation.
