Father's Day

[Jeff Westover]

Houston, I have a problem:

At Church on Sunday the kids made Father's Day presents -- as they do every year in advance of Father's Day. One of the ladies who helps with the kids sadly had her father pass away last year and she brought in all his old ties and had the kids "decorate them" with all kinds of little doo-dads that they glued on.

That's not the problem. I have lots of trophies like that and I love them all.

My problem is that I had four little girls in with this activity and ALL of them expect me to wear their tie this next week.

Has anyone ever had to wear four ties at once before? How do I do it?

oh boy
four ties?
think think think
could wear one regular, one on each arm & the other.......jeez it had to be 4....headband?
or wear one aound your neck & try and hang the others off it?
Your gonna look goofy one way or another

 

[Michael Rielly]

Hmmm, tough one.

How about one around the neck, one as a head band, and one ties around each bulging bicep!

OR

You could try tying all four around your neck; one in front, one in back, and one on each side!

HeeHee!

I don't have the problem. My son is 14 and it is just not cool anymore...
And my daughter, 9 will likely create something using multi colored construction paper, flour, water, glue, several markers, and a few carefully chosen pebbles from outside. Oh and lots of glitter!

 

[dvdelf]

looks like sc & I are operating the same wave length

 

[Jeff Westover]

yeah...you're both forgetting that I have to wear these things TO CHURCH...thank goodness my three older children weren't in there!

 

[dvdelf]

well do you want happy girls or to look normalcheesy

 

[Jinglebelle]

why don't you make some kind of deal with them to wear one for the next 4 sunday's?
in no paticular order of course... or maybe make up some game to decide who's is when...

either way...good luck!

 

[Jeff Westover]

I'm just hoping for a bad cold at this point.

 

[Jinglebelle]

Maybe you could make a tie schedule and change them every half hour or so on sunday...?

Good luck with the cold, don't wash your hands till sunday! hehehehe!

I'm picturing a James Bond-esque tie rotator.

I might actually like that...

Get the ties sewn together, side by side, to make one gimungous tie! Wear in the Ascot style.

*tuts* Honestly, you'd think it was rocket science.:wink:

Don't encourage me. I'm the type of guy that will actually try to make one.

It IS rocket science. These might be little girls we're talking about but, good grief, they're still WOMEN. We're talking deep psychology here. I've got to be careful or this kind of thing could scar them for life.

 

[Jinglebelle]

You never told us Jeff.... how'd the tie thing work out for you?
