The Son, The Father, and the T-Shirts (Chronicles of a Father's Day Present)

Father's day is fast approaching and since we celebrated it a day early at casa de Hall, I thought I would share with you our son's present for his father.
I took Mason to the store to pick out a gift for his dad with the intent of trying to subtly(HA! HA!) point out things that would make an excellent Father's Day gift from a hat to a t-shirt that said SUPER DAD! Well he liked the T-shirt idea with the exception that he wanted to pick it out all by himself. We've all been at this age where we've handed our dads those insanely ugly ties or the aftershave where you know the manufacturers were using essence of skunk, well my son's gift was no different.
Once the contents of the bag was emptied and the tissue paper had settled, there lay a white shirt with every Super Mario Brothers character imaginable printed on the front of the T-shirt for Steve and a small green shirt with Yoshi just right for a little boy. "See Dad, we can match!" Mason said.
So tomorrow after church Steve will be donning his extremely awesome Mario Brothers shirt as will Mason! (Hoping to post pics of this memorable event!)

  2. It is a WAY AWESOME shirt!!! It is the best present I ever got. He was so excited about giving it to me, and I could tell with one word I could either make his day or break his heart.
