Epic Birthday Fail 101

Travis had a birthday recently and let's just say it will be memorable for being an epic fail. Don't worry I will teach you how to make sure your husband has a terrible birthday.

First: In order to really make sure the birthday is not very enjoyable make sure that everyone in the house is sick. The birthday boy and you too! That will really get things rolling.

Second: Make sure your printer is not working. When you go to print out the birthday coupon for a free meal the printer won't work. Then you will go to the library to print it only to find the library is not open on Mondays. Next you go to your friends and you print the wrong email. So you go back and print the right one. Then you will finally get to the restaurant an hour and a half later. This is all really fun with a fussy baby and a starving husband.

Don't be fooled this was a past birthday. Smiles like that were not seen on THIS birthday!

Third: Do not charge your phones and make sure you car plug ins won't work so you can't charge your phone in the car. That way you won't be able to call anyone to figure out wait times or when people call to wish him happy birthday while you are out he won't be able to answer. 

Fourth: Do not make reservations for dinner and just assume the restaurant will not be busy because it is a Monday night. Then when you have finally made it to the restaurant after the printing fiasco you will find there is an hour and a half wait. And because you are so hungry at this point waiting that long is not an option.

This is the place we were trying to go to. Its supposed to be delicious. I don't know though.

Fifth: Do not take your husband to the place he has been super excited to go to for the past month. That will really make for a great birthday.

Sixth: Write happy birthday with chocolate syrup on his birthday cheesecake. It will soak into the cheesecake and puddle up looking really great. This picture pretty much sums up the whole day.

We laugh about it now but when it was all happening it was a bit frustrating. I felt terrible. He really deserves the best and that sure wasn't the best. Next year will be better!!

This is cute though!
