Who's the Birthday Boy? No it's not my kid I'm talking about .. it's my husband. Coming soon to a theatre near me (ahem.. this Friday!) and I'm clueless on what to get him. Actually in a panic. Why is it so hard to buy for men? What do they want????? Me.. now that's easy peezy... a spa day, flowers, out for dinner (anything not to cook!), a nice outing, a vacation, chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate.. oh and don't forget the wine (not whine!). See how easy is that! But NOOOOO, for the life of me.. I'm always stumped on a great gift for Mike. He always says he needs new clothes.. I get them.. and he's like "Thanks" and I don't see him wear what I bought and I end up returning said items. He loves to read, so we get him books. Cool! He reads them and is like "Thanks" but really books... kinda boring. I thought for Christmas I was clever and found the perfect gift . Mike is always saying he wants a portrait of the family so I got a session booked with a great local photographer, my son's former Kindergarten teacher, http://mandysrokaphotography.blogspot.com/. He seemed happy enough about it, but...... I'm still looking for that perfect gift with the WOW factor (no I can't afford a sports car for him, and I'm not dressing up in fishnet stockings....). I'm looking for suggestions here.. hint, hint. I'll help you out.. he loves computers (is a programmer), anything electronic, sailing, reading, football (especially the CU Buffs and Denver Broncos). Oh and Mike if you are reading this, DON'T!
Thanks (on behalf of me and the Birthday Boy!) for any ideas. *Don't let him persuade you to suggest the fishnet stockings or any dancing that involves a pole!
Happy early birthday to your hubby! Following back from Mommy's Peanut Gallery :)
ReplyDeleteIf he loves book and anything electronic, I am sure he already has a kindle/nook, right???
