His 31st Birthday

I think I'm getting better at planning surprises—especially for SirHubby. Considering my track record of failed attempts, I'd say this time... I nailed it! hehe

So, he's been asking me to accompany him to 'uptown' to find new sunnies for quite some time. But due to time constraint, we couldn't be able to go and he has to still wearing his 'pasar malam' one. 

And that's how the idea of 'what-to-buy-for-his-birthday' came out. 

I wanted to buy it online (hoping that I would get a better price) but considering the risk of its condition and quality, I've changed my mind. 

I knew that my husband loves Oakley but never knew that they have so many types of it - Frogskins the only type I know (noob!) hahaha

Bought it a month before his birthday and the safest place that I could think to keep it, was in my handbag. Alhamdulillah, selamat dan tak kantoi selama sebulan dalam handbag tu. Tehee!

What usually ruins my surprises, classically, is the birthday cake.

So, this time I decided to give the birthday cake during our short vacation - it's a weekend getaway that doubled as his birthday treat. 

I made a special request when booking the hotel online and I also called the hotel a day before our arrival to make sure they were aware and had prepared everything I requested. 

However, when I checked with the front desk while check-in, they said they were not informed about it. sigh. 

But thank God they were kind enough to prepare it in the very last minute. 

Alhamdulillah, all's well that ends well.
