  :help: It's my husband's birthday today and I have no idea what to get him....AGAIN!~And no, I didn't wait until the last second, I've been thinking of this for a while, and I haven't been able to come up with anything good.

I think he has absolutely everything that he needs and I can't think of ANYTHING that would be really fun to get for him.  He has so much hunting and fishing stuff, ...it's truly ridiculous!  He has absolutely every kind of tool he could ever need...besides, those are BORING!!  I'd like to get him something a little more "FUN"!  Do any of you have any great ideas?  Or have you got something in the past that was a really great gift that you think everyone should know about or have?
My husband gives me absolutely no ideas, say's if he wants something, he'll just go buy it....and always tells me that he doesn't need a thing.  :bs: So B-O-R-I-N-G!! :moon:

I thought about getting us some tickets to go to Vegas for a weekend get-away, or even a nice cabin up North or something, but that is out of the question because we just don't have a weekend available for quite some time because of our kid's crazy sport schedule.

So if any of you have any suggestions, I am very open to hear some "new ideas""... I'd appreciate it.  Because as of right now, when he comes home at tonight, it looks like he's gettin' a whole lot of "nothin"!  :whistling:  And that's just "NO FUN AT ALL"!

Ideas?  anyone?....anyone?  Or just tell me, what is the best gift you have ever got from your wife or girlfriend?

1. Guided muskie trip.  I made her come with and she caught the muskie. Go figure.  
2. Hot air baloon ride.
3. One of those ultralite type (parachute go cart big fan on the back)  ride.
4. My all time favorite, and standing request is a B!@# j!@ :happy1:

If he doesn't have one, a mancave would be sweet.  Every guy needs a mancave (or at least a Viking recliner or couch).

Wow Dakids, you are FULL of awesome suggestions!!  Thank you!

1. A guided muskie trip is a great idea, since he has never been muskie fishing...

2. Hot air balloon ride...would be swweeeeettttt,  :happy1: another AWESOME idea!!  (Any suggestions, on where I could get something like this?)   

3. And he would probably LOVE the ultalite parachute go-cart thing!  I also have no idea where they do things like this, but again...another great idea that never even came into my mind!

4. A B!@#j!@ ???  HOW DARE YOU??? training-087  I mean how dare you think of something I already thought of...  ;D Because actually, I gave him a whole "coupon book" full of those last year, and no, I'm not even kidding!! Admit it boys, I'm the best wife EVER!!  (I think he used all those coupons up in the first week though! ~typical guy!  :whistling: )  ...but I bet he wouldn't "hate" it if I gave him a "renewal coupon book"!   :scratch:

Too funny!!!  :rotflmao:

Thanks for the suggestion UncleDave, ...but he's got a pretty nice one of those already.  I told you he has EVERYTHING!!

Thanks,

The picture is of his garage (mancave) in our back yard...

Hey GG :queen2:
    How about
1. A coupon for YOU to gut out your own deer :whistling:
2. Hot tub by the pool
3. Dinner at his favorite place.  I like this one.  You also get to eat with him since he doesn't like to eat alone. :chef:
4. DQ ice cream cake for 2 in your bedroom or his mancave whichever he wishes for.
5. Sexy cloths for you.  He gets to open the gift :dancinred:
6. Stripper pole in the mancave. :censored:

If you need more help just let me know.  I have a LONG list of stuff that I can't post.

Hey GG :queen2:
    How about
1. A coupon for YOU to gut out your own deer :whistling: <<LMAO!! Well, we all know THIS is NEVER GONNA HAPPEN!!

2. Hot tub by the pool ...This idea I love, unfortunately, it's not quite in the budget this year, since we just spent about 50 grand on remodeling my kitchen...

3. Dinner at his favorite place.  I like this one.  You also get to eat with him since he doesn't like to eat alone. :chef: I like this one too, but it can't happen tonight, we have to go to out son's football game.... ...maybe a late night "bedroom snack" could happen though...   :scratch:

4. DQ ice cream cake for 2 in your bedroom or his mancave whichever he wishes for. Another brilliant idea, ...and if he chooses the "mancave", I'm takin' my coupons back!

5. Sexy cloths for you.  He gets to open the gift :dancinred:
I think he has bought me just about every outfit possibly already, ....I'd really have to be creative to top some of the things he has already got me!   ;D

 6. Stripper pole in the mancave. :censored: Hhhmmm....seems he was just talkin' about this yesterday as a matter of fact! ...Why is it that you men ALL seem to think alike? 

If you need more help just let me know.  I have a LONG list of stuff that I can't post. PM ME NOW! LMAO!  :rotflmao:

Can I get a coupon book?  To give to my wife to give back to me for my birthday? And to hell with the sexy clothes, they stay on for 45 seconds tops and that's the last they get worn....

My belated Happy Birthday wishes to your hubby and many thanks to him for helping to generate so many great ideas (for me) on our upcoming 25th. I'm thinkin' things could get pretty frosty however if I don't get the lawn mowed soon. Maybe if I moved the fence over and let the sheep out in the yard... :cold:

And you sound surprised....  So where's my coupon book to give to my wife to give back to me?  Do I need to send a S.A.S.E. to get one?

I was going to ask what you decided to get him for his birthday, but I see you wrote he had a "banging birthday".   :scratch: So what kind of gun did you get him?   :scratch: Did ya go trap shootin?   :fudd:

what is a "S.A.S.E.??  I'm clueless.

And here is a link for you so you can make your very own personalized coupons just the way you like them! lol!
http://www.dltk-cards.com/coupon/

And just remember that after you make them for her, to give to you, she just might keep track of how many are used after a while, so don't go and try to make an extra 10 copies or anything like that after you used them all up, ...it just doesn't work that way, lol! She'll catch onto it eventually, ...ah but I guess it's worth a shot.  Oh and also, here is a HUGE tip for you,  the best time to present a coupon to her is NOT by poking her on the forehead at 5:30 in the morning with a big smile on your face!!  And it is especially NOT a good time when one or more of your kids are sleeping in bed with both of you.  And your all thinking "I would NEVER do that...and I say to that "YEAH, RIGHT!!" AH HUH!  (...Your all the same!)

Best of luck to you Big Red!!  :dancinred:

I do have to say that I did see something on craigslist that caught my eye, and this was for real!  There was an add in there for "Naked Cleaning Girl" (or a naked cleaning GUY, they were not prejudice, lol!)  And when I saw it I thought, "well, this is a WIN/WIN!!  My hubby could watch a naked girl walk around our house all day, and I could get my whole house cleaned" , how could it get any better then that?  :dancinred:
...BUT, our little kids might have thought that was a wee bit strange, but hey, once they are older and moved out, ...I might just look for an add like that again! Might?  Who am I kidding, I am totally doing that!!  :happy1: ...I hate cleaning!  :rotflmao:

Your very welcome, and also, you will have to let us all know what your wife thought of your "home-made coupon book".   ...just curious as to what her response is going to be, lol!
...I'm sure it will be hillarious!
