Yes, tomorrow is Father's Day, but it's also my birthday. Kinda stinks huh. I've had my birthday line up with Father's Day a couple times since we've been married. Here is the funny thing, my hubby's birthday is around Mother's day, so he's had to share his day with me a couple of times. We have things worked out, I'll give him breakfast in bed and he'll make dinner. I also celebrated today by going to see Toy Story 3 with the kids.
We'll we've had some big projects going on around here during the last month and I feel I am doing most things last minute. Our father's day gifts are no exception. I always like to give one thing handmade.
I just finished this super cheesy tie for church tomorrow.
I used one of his father's ties we kept but he doesn't ever wear.
I have this great fabric laying around that already has Wonder Under on it. I wrote the words with fabric markers and cut them out, along with some circles. Then I ironed them onto the tie. Next, I printed the pictures onto iron on transfer paper and ironed them over the circles. It didn't need to be sewn down but I wanted it to look handmade and cheesy, so I did.
I'm hoping he'll be a good sport about wearing it.

I guess 26, you look very young, and you are very hip and you have a young sister so that is my guess. I hope you have a great birthday dinner and that your hubby wears that tie with pride and love for and from his kids, my hubby would not wear it because it is a tie, he has a someone had to die or get married for him to wear a tied rule.
Happy Birthday, sweet friend, hope someone makes you a cake,

I'd say 28 - you look younger but you have 4 children!
Cute tie, very sweet idea! I am guessing that this is your big 30! Or younger! No matter your age I hope it is a great day! I love that your husband and you have the day worked out to be a win-win! And I Love your blog! Super projects!
Cute tie! Happy Birthday!! :D
Hello Kalleen,
I follow your corner at a time and love it! I think you're very creative, an inspiration! Really!
Beautiful work for Father's Day ... : D. Very cute!
A wonderful birthday to you a blessed Father's Day to your beautiful family!
Ps.: With the face of a girl you have, your age must be 26-28 years ...? I have 31 years with three children, and thought I had started early ...
Do not know if I translated right ...

I too love your blog! So fun to read. Because of how many children you have, and guessing you started early-mid 20's, I'm thinking 29-32. I'm 33 and pregnant with my fourth. But, I didn't start until 27. YOu have a young face, as do I...which, as we get older, I've learned to really appreciate!
I know you werent 30 when we did SYTYC...I remember I was the oldest there....So Id say you are possibly turning 30, but Im going to guess you are turning 29.
Wow, sorry about all the deleted entries, it went crazy and posted it like 5 times ;-)
Happy Birthday, Kalleen!
Hi Kalleen, my birthday is also on the 20th of june! But I'm a bit older (43...)
Hope you had a nice day, I did!
btw: I love your blog! Very inspiring.
Greetings,
Marcella
I LOVE this tie you made! I doubt my husband would be willing to wear one but I think I will make him one next fathers day just for laughs!
Happy belated birthday! I hope it was a good one. I turned 30 earlier this year. I believe 30's will be the best decade yet!
