I’m sharing something with you even before I share it with my husband. Keith’s birthday is next week so I’ve spent the past month planning a special treat for him. And although today isn’t his actual birthday, I’m surprising him with a day full a of activities he’ll love.
Keith reads this blog from time-to-time so I need to pause momentarily for a station identification . NOTE TO KEITH: Honey, if you’re reading this, please STOP HERE. I love you and you’re just minutes away from your day of surprises beginning…so don’t ruin it!
Okay, now back to my secret plans. I wrote that note as a precaution but it’s highly unlikely Keith will have a moment’s time to visit the blog post today. Because in an hour (and I’m so excited about this), I am taking him to the fitness studio he goes to every morning for cycling and power yoga. This was the only thing he asked me to make sure I include in his special day. What he doesn’t know is it was always going to be included.
I have 30 of his closest friends and family meeting us at the studio and EVERYONE is going to join him in his intense hour-long workout. Can you imagine how much fun I’ve had planning this? The entire studio is in on it, from the owner to the front desk to the teachers. One of his teachers from his 5:30am class was scheduled to be out of town today but took a 7am flight back to make sure she was here his this surprise.
Not bad, eh?
After we all workout, we will go to his favorite nearby Mexican restaurant and toast the most amazing man I’ve ever known. I’m capping off the day with a private dinner at one the top rated restaurants in the Los Angeles area. Neither of us have been but often make mention when passing by it on our way through Santa Monica.
Have you ever surprised your hubby with a special birthday (day of events or extraordinary gift)? How did it make you feel? But more importantly, how do you think it make him feel? Right now, I’m so excited I might actually burst! I wish you were here to join in the fun with us. But I trust you and your hubby will have an awesome day today, as well.
Until Monday…make it a great weekend!
Continuing my Why I Love My Husband list:
20. He supports me in all that I do.
21. He’s my Encourager-in-Chief allowing me to dream big; never telling me something is out of my reach.
22. He bakes delicious desserts to satisfy my never-ending sweet tooth.
23. He’s faithful.
24. He doesn’t give me a hard time when I turn on Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner or Pretty Woman (two movies I’ve seen more times than I can count).
25. When we’re out and I get cold (as was the case last night), he’ll always give my his jacket.
