And sometimes, the universe conspires against him and he only TRIES to surprise me, but gets "owned."
This time, it was the florist calling for directions because our neighborhood is still too new for Mapquest or Google. (I told her to try Yahoo...they are up to date. It worked.)
Next, it was the credit card company fraud alert system, calling me with a recorded message to verify that the purchase was legitimate. (Which made me laugh REALLY hard...I guess it had to be totally out of his normal buying pattern for him to merit this...should he take a hint?)
Anyway, Cliff definitely gets an "A" for effort on this one. I was really bummed out that he wasn't here for our anniversary (he was performing his friend Dave's memorial service that day) but he was so thoughtful to make sure that I knew he was thinking of me.

Aren't they gorgeous?

Happy Anniversary!!!! That is awesome that you have the flashback picture-so cute and awesome to have the flowers-a symbol of love for many (including me). Totally laughed at the phone calls---busted, but of course an A for doing it! It is awesome to have a happy relationship and rejoice in a husband that loves you.
Ahhh.. look at you!! How cute is that? Well, Cliff doesn't have to buy you flowers to get my vote but it IS icing on the cake :) Happy Anniversary! I've loved reading about/ seeing your pictures from your conference trip! Love you!
First the florist calls, then the credit card company with a fraud alert?
Ok, that is flat out FUNNY.
Could you categorize this as a failure to follow through?
Poor Cliff.
"Poor Cliff" is right...he's never going to live down that 'follow through' comment, is he? (Or should I say I'M never going to live it down!?)
