Two days ago was my husband's birthday. I wish I could buy him something that would make him happy. I didn't know what to get him. It is hard to shop for a man and the honest thing is, I didn't have the money. Still I feel he works so hard, if I can put anything on the credit card, it must be a cake for him.
So I bought him one of those funny birthday cards instead of the sschnoopy ones. And he loved it and I'm glad it made him laugh.
I also bought this ice cream cake for him. He loved it. It was his first time having ice cream cake. I'm glad I made the choice to get him this.
So I gave him his card, chocolates and cake. I was hoping to surprise him with friends over, but it didn't work out like I planned this year. Maybe next year. I don't think he has ever had a party.
Happy birthday to my hubs.

ReplyDeleteIce cream cake is one of my favorite. I just love that it's not all cake...Wonderful to celebrate the guys' birthday, they are just so appreciative huh? Hopefully next year it will work out better like you plan. I am still waiting to throw my hubby a BIG one, but he is slow in getting there. LOL.
ReplyDeleteWe always want to get our loved ones something great - but my husband and I always give eachother something incredibly inexpensive because we would rather save money and buy something Fabulous we both can enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI am sure your husband just needs your love for his birthday and it looks like he got it!

Happy Birthday to your husband. I know what you mean about not knowing what to get. That is always how I feel for my husband. He does so much for us and I have no idea what to give him. No idea at all.
ReplyDeleteYummy birthday cake. I'm sure he loved the thought you put into it.
