The one good thing about Kyle not reading my blog is that I can talk about things such as his birthday, without him ever finding out.
Since his birthday is a few days after I get back from Arizona I want to do something to surprise him. His birthday is on Cinco de Mayo which is a pretty fun birthday if you ask me.
I have coordinated with his 1SG and XO for them to get me into his office the day before his birthday. Thankfully it's a Sunday and I go grocery shopping so he would never question me leaving the house. I already have some decorations bought, here is what I have so far:
We already have a sombrero so I'm sure that will get worn at some point during his day lol:
I'm going to bring in a cake for his birthday, he has no idea about that either. I had the idea to throw him a party at the house but he quickly said no haha. He isn't a huge fan of birthdays but I still wanted to do something special.
The one thing I am stumped on is a gift. I am thinking possibly a day of golf or golf lessons. Fingers crossed that I can pull off this surprise without him finding out.
Have you ever tried to surprise your significant other?
Oh how fun! Cinco de Mayo is our boyfriend/girlfriend anniversary! Thats so cool that you are able to get into his office and surprise him. I am sure he will love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic birthday surprise! You are awesome
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure divorce papers would land at my feet if I ever did this to Scott lol. We had 2 friends over for dinner on his birthday and that was even iffy.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
What a fun surprise!
ReplyDeleteI haven't ever tried to surprise Derek, but I bet I could totally pull it off! I'm good at that type of stuff and he's not really the suspicious type. Maybe I will for his 35th bday in a couple of years!
ReplyDeleteYay!! I was hoping you were still going with the Cinco de Mayo theme! Can't wait to see how it turns out :)
ReplyDeleteIt seems like I always surprise my husband - I don't know if he's truly clueless or if he's just a good actor. :) And he'd KILL me if I tried to decorate his office for him. But I think what you're doing is sweet! A day of golf would be heavenly for him.
ReplyDeleteI threw Tom a surprise going away party right before basic. He thought we were having a St. Patrick's day party the next day so I was able to have him help with all the clean up and prep beforehand. I also invited all of our friends and family from out of town, so it turned out to be a huge deal! It is the only surprise party I have successfully planned. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteDane is a huge fan of massages, so if Kyle likes those--it's such a treat!
ReplyDeleteSo fun! That's really sweet of you. I have surprised Joel before. He loves surprises, and never tries to figure them out. He's an easy target. :)
ReplyDeleteGolf is a great surprise!
ReplyDeleteOh that is so cool. I would love to try to do something small and special for John. He isn't big on surprises though.
ReplyDeleteI'm a terrible gift giver and surpriser. ha! No suggestions here.
ReplyDeleteLove it. What a good surprise.
ReplyDeleteWe are throwing our first adult party the weekend before cinco de mayo since before I was even pregnant with Alex. I'm definitely looking forward to it.
That is cute that they are letting you in early!
ReplyDeleteIsn't a huge fan of birthdays?!?! What in the world!! haha Sounds like you're planning some great things :)
ReplyDeleteAww this is so sweet!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the decorations!! Haha I completely get it, my husband is not into birthdays either. Makes me want to do it up even bigger just because of that! I think a day of golf is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteThat's really fun!! I'd planned of having flowers delivered to Richard's work at some point, just to surprise him (and maybe embarrass him a little) :-) Decided to bake cake instead..
ReplyDeleteHow fun! My birthday this year landed on "taco tuesday" while we were vacationing in California. Taco Tuesdays are a big deal there so it was so fun to celebrate on that day!
ReplyDeleteHow fun!!!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I are bad at surprises.. we usually end up guessing what it is or telling one another haha
So fun!!! I love cinco de mayo! You guys will have so much fun I am sure!
ReplyDeletewhat an awesome idea!
ReplyDeletefun idea! Sneaky wife! Good fun for him though. I know he'll appreciate it! My husband doesn't like birthdays a lot but I make sure it happens since it's a week prior to Christmas. He gets a pie and a gift of some kind. I always seem to figure out what it is eventually. I told him that he'd feel sad if nobody remembered his day, he's special to me and I will always remember it. So there! Tee Hee. Have a good weekend and have a good trip to AZ. We are looking forward to my son and family spending Easter Sunday afternoon with us. Got a roast to cook up.!!!! :0}
ReplyDeleteSo cute! The perks of having a husband who doesn't read your blog, haha.
ReplyDeleteMy husband is going to be 50 this year, and I'm thinking I'd better issue up the first surprise party he's gotten in 10 yrs. ;) Good luck to you finding the perfect gift!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute idea! I hope it works! I always end up telling my husband when I try to surprise him!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea! You will have to tell us how it goes!
ReplyDeleteSuper fun!! B's Dirty 30 will be this year, but close to the time we'll be PCSing. I'm hoping I can plan something fun!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like so much fun! Love the decorations and the sombrero! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the surprise! I'm sure he will love whatever you do ;)
