need advice - FH's bday (with POLL)

OK. so fh's bday is tomorrow. he is (or should be) in study mode for a BIGGG test he is taking next friday (pray )

Anyway, I didnt really plan on seeing him since he should be studying, and I am taking him on a surprise weekend get away next friday through sunday.

but now i am thinkin i should see him...so the question is....should i be at his house early in the morning when he leaves for work and maybe pack him a lunch (leaving him the evening available to study)??

or

screw the studying (since there is no guarantee he will definately study anyway) and take him out to dinner

or somemthing else?

I’d go with the meeting him in the a.m. I think it would be adorable

I'd say have dinner together but you don't necessarily have to go out. I always prefer it when FH makes (or attempts to make) dinner for me for a special occasion. And then you can chat/study/cook all you'd like!

I would talk to him about dinner and do the morning thing as a surprise! If he's not in for dinner at least you surprised him and got to see him on his bday!

Maybe instead of going out to dinner, order in from a really great place? (Like not your typical take-out)
And get him Crumbs because well, it's Crumbs

Do you work in da city? If so, pick 'em up on the way home. They pack them in plastic boxes so they transport neatly.

Do something small on his birthday. Than make an overnight reservation at a place like Danford's in Port Jefferson. Tell him you are taking him out to dinner in Port Jefferson for his birthday. Than have desert in the hotel room Just don't tell him about the desert .
I did this to my FH last year he loved it....it was a great surprise for him staying at Danford's after dinner. Than we had brunch the next morning. It was wonderful!
