you must see my dad tearing up the dance floor

Over the weekend I went home for my cousin's wedding. [Let the season begin!] I knew it'd be a lot different than any wedding with my friends considering my entire family would be there, but I really had no idea what to expect. 

Well, I was more than pleasantly surprised when my dad was the first person to hit the dance floor and completely OWN it. He had some dance moves I've never seen [that were mostly off-beat], and so it's only right that I made them into gifs for you to enjoy.

This would be his dance to the "DING DING DING" in Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feelin"

Some fist pumping song came on, so I showed him how it's done. He went way harder than me.

"EVERY DAY I'M SHUFFLIN"

Maybe my personal favorite. This was what I called the "white man dance." He didn't like that so much. 

And this is what I call the grand finale. Totally caught me off guard.

My dad thinks he's a 25 year old. It's pretty awesome now that I'm out of the house and also about to be 25... but I'll be honest... for a man who is naturally AWESOME at all things playing music, he certainly has no rhythm. Hence my mother laughing at him in most of those.

But like... SERIOUSLY. How freaking hysterical is that?! I'm still crying laughing.

Here are some more pictures from the wedding:

My bro thought he'd get a little comb-over action going for this summer. What a old grown man.

My cousin Joe, the groom.

I caught the bouquet!! And, check the sculpture I conveniently placed Mikey near... teehee.

Why did I even waste space with those pictures? I should have just posted the gifs twice.

love,

PS: Dad, I know you said I shouldn't post these and you have some "career" to hang on to but like... so do I. And I'm the future. So like.... I love you?

nifty: the pillowtie

So you think getting your dad a tie for Father's Day is SO overrated?! Yeah... I did too... Until I saw this piece of GOLD.

I present to you the Pillowtie.


I know what you're thinking... It's just a normal tie. It's SO NOT! It's called the Pillowtie for a reason.

Ya see... It has a valve on the other side. You blow this sucker up and it becomes an instant pillow for the office, plane, wherever they are!


GENIUS, right?! Abso-freakin-lutely. I think I might even try and bring back the Avril style just so I can rock a Pillowtie. Who's with me?!

They're only $20 and there are a TON of styles and colors. [Of course I showed you the best one!......] Do it. Buy it. Now. Your dad will love you forever.

love,
elizabethany

what to get your dad for father's day

Father's Day is this weekend, and if you're like me, you have absolutely no idea what to get your dad because a tie just won't work.

Thankfully there's a list of awesome things that even your dad probably didn't think of, but would totally love to have in his possession.

The Table Knife. It'll make him look a lot more manly cutting anything at the dinner table. He'll also help people laugh.

Credit Card Survival Tool. Ummm... Can we say AMAZING?! Plus it's under $5! What a BARGAIN.

USB Memory Watch. Help your dad look good and be able to save all his files all at once!

BBQ Brander. I'm sure this would be perfect for all you Texans! Make it so your dad's name is on everything he cooks! He won't have to waste his breath on bragging!

Toilet Seat Warmer. Let's not pretend our dads don't spend hours in the bathroom every day. Though their butts probably warm it enough, make it so their toilet is always ready, warm, and waiting for them!


Now I need to figure out which one I shall get for my dad! I think I've made up my mind though... Have you?!

love,
elizabethany
