Team Mama Idea: Photo Book Gift For Players

One of my all-time favorite football mama/son duos is moving. Both her and her husband are in the Army and have orders to head all the way across the country. Saying that I will miss them is definitely an understatement.


Our boys have been on the same team for the past 3 seasons. Season 1 ended with a run in the playoffs, season 2 with a trip to the championship, and season 3 with a championship victory! Since day one, she was always someone I could count on. Whether it was for transport, game day camera duty, help with tailgates or snacks, she was always there.


I wanted to give them a little something not only as a token of my appreciation, but also to preserve a few of the amazing memories that we made and shared together.


After some thought, I decided to go the photo book route. I skimmed through hundreds of photos from all 3 seasons and chose my favorite 24. Let me tell you, that was no easy task! I'd be lying if I said I didn't get a little teary eyed doing so.





The book arrived in a little less than a week, and I couldn't have been happier with the finished product! It turned out even better than expected.








I can't wait to surprise them with it!




We will miss you dearly, Nicole and Gabe!


"Do not cry because it is over, smile because it happened". Until next time!




*** Sports Mama Tip: This would also make a great end of season gift for the team and/or coach(es). You are the author. The possibilities are endless!

Easy, DIY Father's Day Gift Idea

With Father's Day being just a few days away, I wanted to share this easy and inexpensive, DIY gift idea with you all.


All dads like beer, right? I mean, let's be honest. Kids will drive you to drinking sometimes! It's inevitable. So, why not give them a gift they're sure to drink love...BEER, made extra special with personalized Father's Day labels!





Here's all you need:


  • 6 pack of dad's favorite beer
  • White, printer labels (I used Avery no. 6878)


You can be as creative as you'd like when designing your labels. You could even have your child make them by hand, for even more of a personalized touch. Or, if you'd like to use mine, click HERE.





No need to waste time attempting to remove the original labels. I simply stuck mine right on top. They are the perfect fit!





That's it! An easy, thoughtful, inexpensive Father's Day gift that dad is sure to think is absolutely brewtiful!





After all, it's 5 o'clock somewhere right?


Happy (early) Father's Day!
