It is your spouse's birthday

Firstly I buy him something special that I know he wants or would really like and in his case, anything to do with fishing is generally a good bet. This year will be extra special because he turns 60, our son will be home in Australia and we have arranged to be with his brother and his family for the day. It is a surprise and as yet my husband has no idea that this will be happening.

A small surprise and a dinner out on a romantic spot. Maybe a good movie together.

She generally likes to add a piece of jewellery and there fore there is no surprise gift, instead it is announced gift and dining out is part of the b.d. celebration apart from gift.

express my love to her take her out for a date and buy her gift.

I would find a babysitter for the boys and make him his favorite dinner. Then just spend the evening relaxing and enjoying each others company. Which does not seem to happen enough in our household.

arrange for a surprise dinner at some good place just both of u...
