We celebrated a birthday this past weekend and I have to say it took me 5 years to finally get down a great plan. My husband never wants to celebrate his birthday, and I just can’t let that happen. Birthday’s are meant for celebrating. If I had my way I might celebrate mine the entire month! It’s only natural, right?
Since, last year was a big one, I didn’t feel that we needed to have to make it a huge event. Especially since I have to convince the birthday boy to even admit to the day. However, we definitely needed to do something – anything!
Amazingly, it hit me a few weeks before. So, I had plenty of time to work it out and not stress or even have to really think about it. This is key for me, because otherwise, I might not be able to pull off any kind of surprise. BUT I did, and it was SO worth it!
We met his dear friends, whom he never gets to see these days, downtown for a lovely Italian lunch and then moved our way over to the USS Midway. He was shocked to find out that I had contacted them to spend the whole day with us and loved the activity. Simple and perfect – I now know the secret! ♥
I knew there was a reason we are friends: I love birthdays, too! I’m also with someone who would prefer to just leave them alone! I’m so glad that you were able to find an activity that he enjoyed. Good for you, and please wish him a happy belated birthday from me. 🙂
Sounds perfect! I love the Brig pic. So funny! 🙂 Keep em comin sister! xo
