What do I want for my birthday?

Alright folks, next weekend is my birthday. My wonderful husband has asked me what do I want to do for it and I am completely out of ideas. I can't think of a single thing I want or want to do. He may or may not be out of town working on his dad's house that weekend and he may or may not be asking me to accompany him. I think that is one of the larger factors in me not knowing what to ask for. He says to not think of the circumstances surrounding my birthday and just tell him what I want but I only want to ask for something feasible, kwim? Regardless, I can't think of anything anyway. Can anyone offer some suggestions?
Thanks!

red macaw

At the fair this past week we took the kids to see a traveling magician/comedian/ animal trainer (don't ask!). He had with him 2 different Macaws. A blue/green one and a red one. I don't know how accurate he is but he said that the blue/green males are "party animals" going from mate to mate with a harem of females and coming and going a wide distance. Then he said the red males are so loyal to their one mate that even if she dies they will remain alone and grieve their companion. I lovingly looked at my husband and asked, "Did you know you were a red macaw?"

LOL...he just smiled and rolled his eyes. Pretty birdie...lol

Happy Anniversary to me and my sweetie!

We were married 4 years ago this Thursday! July 31st! It's hard to believe it's only been that long and hard to believe it's ALREADY been that long, lol. We are still so very much in love - and honey mooning thank-you-very-much and we wouldn't have it any other way! I am so blessed to be with my man! I love you Brock.

house for sale...

We are frantically fixin' and painting and packing so we can move. We want the house showable by Aug. 5 th so that means we gotta get out of here by then. :-) New carpet and 3 small boys don't mix. Anyway, if you know anyone interested in moving to the country send them this way,k?

Here are the details...

8.23 acres (including a 3 acre wooded parcel). 7 stall stable with tack room, 3/4 acre pond with fish and all other manner of pond life, brand new chicken coop with a few chickens and a fenced-in chicken run, a detached 2 car garage with workspace.

The house is an early 1970s exposed basement ranch (lives like a 2 story). There are 2 large bedrooms upstairs, with eat-in kitchen, formal dining, living room with fireplace and indoor grill and full bath upstairs. Downstairs is the family room with larger fireplace, two bedrooms (one we use as an office), a utility room (for the water softener, furnace, etc), a laundry/storage room with built-in shelves all around for storage, a "garden" room which used to be an attached garage but we converted to be like an indoor potting shed with a beautiful stamp-and-dye concrete floor.

We are pricing to sell at a STEAL for $399,999.00 because of the crummy market in this area. The sooner we sell the sooner we can obtain the lot for sale by my parents' house that we want so much.

This is all definately an adventure....

Ok - I gotta get back to packing!

P.S. The pic is of the stables.

another favorite thing...

Our anniversary is at the end of this month. I will show one of my favorite things that reminds me of this special time. It is our cake topper from our wedding. A dear friend that I went to Physical Therapy Assistant school with made it for us for free for the wedding. She made it just like us down to the dress the bride is wearing and the coral colored flowers and everything. It is so special because she made it so lovingly for us. I will always think of her when I look at it and also remember what a special and exciting time that was in my life as I prepared to marry this hunk of a man! :-)
