Talk abou a Valentine's Day to remember! A friend of mine and I decided we would surprise our hubbies with a night away from the hustle and bustle of the Rat Race, planning every detail out and gatherine things up for the day/night in question. However there is no way to plan EVERYTHING that can possibly happen.
First we checked into the Hotel, then prepped the room with all kinds of goodies: from rose petals all over the beds, floor, trail leading into a bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub, a giant teddy bear on each queen bed, chocolates scattered over the beds, small basket of assorted gummy candies, drinks in the refridgerator, fresh fruit and whip cream, candles around the tub and in strategic places in the room, massage oils, etc.....
We hurried back and got ready for a party we intended to stay a short time at, went, stayed a lil' longer then planned. The hubbies were aware only that neither of them would be driving once we left. Upon leaving the party both of them were blind folded and placed in the backseat and told not to peek. Ladies a word of advice if your hubbies travel alot for work.... drive in circles or in a VERY round about way before reaching your destination! Our hubbies, even though blind folded, were continually tellings us where we were!!!!!!!! Frustrating! We thought a lil too late of trying to confuse them and took an earlier exit off the freeway.......
Now keep in mind that my hubby during his stay in the backseat blind folded had tried to write HELP on the back window of the vehicle we were driving and had only been able to get H...E...L written. SHEESH! and yes he is a smartass that enjoys a good laugh So we get off the freeway and within two blocks we get pulled over!! WONERFUL! I was thinking it was because of my hubby trying to write HELP on the back window. Turned out the hubby hadn't fixed one of the tail lights yet. Gets better people, just keep reading.
The officer comes up and looks at me asking 'Do you know why I pulled you over?'. Um no officer I don't. 'You have a tail light out'. Now this same officer catches a look into the backseat and sees both of our husbands blindfolded and gets a funny look on his face. I am thinking OH GOD here we go. The officer takes my license and goes back to his vehicle. I could have strangled my hubby! The officer comes back and then asks me if I would please step out of the vehicle and come with him. OK I am going to jail, GREAT We walk to the back of our vehicle and he proceeds to ask if any of us have been drinking oops, forgot we had put alcohol in the bed of the truck, No sir not yet that is for our destination. The officer looks me in the eyes and asks 'What exactly are you doing?'. Keep in mind it is pitch black out and I think at this point I would have given Rudolf a run for his money, I was soooooo embarressed. Um well that is her husband and that's my husband and we planned a Valentine's Day surprise for them sir. I don't think I have ever seen an officer try so hard to hold a straight face and NOT ask for more details! 'Well you guys have a great night, but be sure to give your husband hell until he gets that tail light fixed.' I climb back into our vehicle and tell the hubby 'your a dead man' then proceed to tell everyone what the officer wanted to talk to me about. It was definately funny and not a moment in time that will easily be forgotten!
A GREAT TIME WAS HAD BY ALL!!
