Day 555: celebration
Today is my wonderful husband's birthday! We've been celebrating since Saturday night and I hope he's enjoyed all of the festivities -- he deserves it!
He is nearly impossible to surprise with gifts, partly because he is particular about things, but also because he is sneaky. I did manage to pull of a couple of fun birthday treats: season three of our favorite show on DVD, a subscription to his favorite magazine and these three vintage beer bottles from Sweden. He knew I bought them here while I was out hunting after-Christmas deals, and confessed to scouting the Web site looking for something I may have bought him -- told you he was sneaky!
Lucky for me they weren't listed online, but I did spot them in this pretty photo. I suppose the moral of the story is that I must shop for him in stores that I like in order to surprise him, right?
Happy birthday, Wes! Btw - David's favorite magazine is Mental Floss too! I had never heard of it and didn't know anyone else that read it! :-) It's pretty cool. So are those bottles! Good find :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Wes! Love those vintage bottles. Oh and John loves Wired magazine, Jennifer. So maybe next year... er, I guess I just ruined the s'prise. I am THE WORST at that stuff.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Wes! We love 'How I Met Your Mother'! I love those bottles; such a great find!
