Today is an exciting day for me. It shouldn’t be abou me because today is Toben’s birthday, but I’m super excited. You see I made a decision a few months back that I wanted to take Toben on a little vacation for his birthday, even if it was just a long weekend. Well as ideas started to take form I realized what would make this trip super special would be not telling him where we are going.
For those that don’t know Toben he is a freak of nature packer. I mean he has traveling down to an art and likes to be packed at least 1-2 weeks in advance. I on the other hand tend to pack the night before or the day of and usually have to guess what clothes I may or may not have brought with me. So we agreed on a few things with this trip 1) I wouldn’t tell him where we were going until we got to the airport 2) I would let him pack for himself which meant he needed to know what type of clothes to pack.
We are currently somewhere in the air heading to Nashville where we will have a few hour layover. He still doesn’t know where he’s going, but he’s excited and therefore I’m excited. See, I told you I was making this about me! Right now I plan to record his reaction as we walk to our final gate and he finally realizes where we are going and I’ll record him again at the next few surprises because yes there is more!
To my husband, best friend, and love of my life I hope this is a time you will never forget. I love going on adventures with you and making memories. Happy Birthday Toben, may this be your best year yet!!!
