Today is an extra special day in our house. This is the day that TechyDad was born in a galaxy far far away.
Alright, so it was not another galaxy – that part of NY can just feel like another planet at times. During the day, TechyDad be working. I know I wish we had been able to swing a trip to our favorite destination for his special day, but we were there earlier this year.
The boys and I may meet up with him for lunch (unless we’re too busy baking a cake). I do know that we will be heading out to dinner together. The other evening, TechyDad and I went out for an early birthday celebration and a fondue date night.
His big present is on hold because he may require a new computer (he’s written about that recently). I told him that I was thinking about a few items, but didn’t do it without talking to him. Of course, the kids will be surprising him with a few goodies that they picked out at the store.
So my question to you this week:
What do you do to celebrate your spouse or significant others birthday?

Dinner out and a gift. Sometimes a cake. As we get older (I’m about to be 47 and he’s 50), it’s not such a big deal anymore!

I’m throwing him a party for his 40th birthday at the end of this month, but in off-years, we are much more quiet about things. I always get him a nice gift, but more than that depends on our finances at the time!

We usually go out to eat and give each other a gift.

Hope you had a great Fondue date night! Some years we throw a party, head to Vegas or go to a club with friends and family. We always go out to dinner. It depends on our finances at the time.

Happy birthday to your love :)
I usually try to give mine a present and the kids always want to do things for him, like art and so forth.
I tend to ask him what he wants to do though.
Maybe it will get better :)

[…] was just too warm to bake in the house, so the boys helped me to pick out a cookie cake for TechyDad’s birthday. He requested one and the boys had fun selecting the colors and what it should have written on top. […]
