This is a fun week over at the Coleman household. On Wednesday, Reggie and I will celebrate our ninth wedding anniversary and Father\u2019s Day is on Sunday. I ran the Father\u2019s Day pitches from various companies by Reggie. He wasn\u2019t interested in the typical tools, ties or whiskey\/drinks. In fact, I only accepted two items to review at his request. We kept one (American Living<\/a> polo shirts) and returned the other (the Motorola Xoom<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The Motorola Xoom was the first item that I reviewed (in over 6 years) that both my husband and sons gave me grief about returning. \u201cDon\u2019t you miss it?\u201d Sean asked the day after I sent it back. When I responded, \u201cNo\u201d, he pressed on\u2026\u201dNot even a little bit?\u2019 Well, even though it turns out that I am not a tablet computer fan, Reggie and the boys quickly grew attached to the Xoom. While Reggie would have loved to receive a Xoom for a gift, I can\u2019t justify spending $599+ on something that he primarily used to play Angry Birds! <\/p>\n

Rather, I bought him the Samsung GALAXY tab<\/a> for a combination anniversary\/Father\u2019s Day gift. I wouldn\u2019t be writing this if he didn\u2019t already know his gift. I really tried to keep it a surprise. I opened a separate Verizon account when I ordered it. I even had my doorman cover for me when a delay in shipping was going to cause the delivery to come during my short trip to Cape May, NJ. Alas, I came home to find out that the mystery no longer existed. (The company called my home phone twice while I was away to make sure that I was happy with my purchase. Of course they were very specific and named my exact purchase both times! Oh well\u2026.<\/p>\n

American Living also sent my guys some cute little polo shirts to wear to an event that they sponsored at the Big Apple BBQ Party in Madison Square Park. My guys tend to dress in a classic style (we all do), so the polos were a great fit. Several of the American Living polo shirts are on sale for $19.99 (down from $45), so they would make a nice, reasonably-priced Father\u2019s Day gift. My guys are wearing their polo shirts in the post image\u2026<\/p>\n

In any event, if the fathers (and father figures) in your life are like my husband, then they would enjoy receiving a Motorola Xoom or American Living polo for their special day. Since my gift pickss are out of the way, I just need to learn how to make a lemon meringue pie \u2013 but that is another post!<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
