Coming Home!
Hey Everyone! I'm new on here...but I am currently deployed. I wasnt expected to go home until October, but they are releasing me early!!! YAY!!! Anywho, I am thinking about surprising the hubby and not telling him I'm coming home early. I already contacted his boss who said he'd like to play this fun game. He works in the casino so we're thinking i'll dress up and randomly show up to play some poker or blackjack or something... His boss said he'd also give him the night off after our surprise if I let him know.
Do you guys think this is a good idea?!
Re: Coming Home!
Is your husband the type to enjoy surprises?
For myself, I wouldn't want to be surprised.
I'm always surprising him...for his bday two years ago..i told him we were driving to a hotel like 2 hours away...ended up at the airport to go to orlando to see his fam he hadnt seen in like 2 years...worked at getting his best friend there..and had a huge family barbeque...
then for his birthday this year... i got Sean Smith (cornerback for the miami dolphins) to call him and wish him a happy birthday....
so i dont see why this wouldnt be another great thing to do...just how to do it...im debating uniform/a new dress i ordered online...nd all the other side factors
I told my husband he better not surprise me, especially with all these stupid "coming home" shows out now. I told him he'd be in the dog house. So my opinion, I don't think you should do it. Homecomings are already an emotional time, to make it a surprise could back fire on you.
But if you think your Dh will like it, I guess go for it.
Yeahhhh. This.

OMG, I would kill H if he came home and surprised me. Do you know how much shiit I like to have in order before he comes home? Please.
All that aside, I appreciate a heads up whenever my H isn't somewhere I thought he was. I also like knowing when he's no longer in a war zone.
Click me, click me!
Maybe you could tell him you are coming home early- just so he has a minor heads up, and then show up at his job the day before he thinks you are coming home.
That way it's still a surprise, but it still gives him time to throw away the beer cans and pizza boxes/wash the pile of underwear strewn around the house.
