Give Him the Chance to Drive a NASCAR

Cloud 9 Living provides great experiences for people to participate in and is easy to give as a gift. You can choose from the experience type you want and many eligible gifts are available.

I found this great gift idea where you can give your guy an opportunity to drive a real NASCAR! There are different regions for which you can do this in: Washington DC, Pittsburgh, Phoenix,  Santa Barbara, Richmond, San Diego, Raleigh, Philadelphia, Kansas City, San Antonio, Orlando, New Jersey, New York, Los Angeles, Orange County, Miami,  Dallas, Detroit, Las Vegas, Columbus, and more.

This is the driving experience of a lifetime. There are professional workers to ensure his safety. There is also a racing suit and helmet available, so he can get fully suited up just like the professionals. He will be the envy of all of his friends!

Windshield/Dashboard Mount for iPhone


     I love getting my guy things that he can use! He travels a lot for work so he's always using his iPhone as a GPS and using it to help him find his way when he's on the road. (By the way, I just hopped on the iPhone bandwagon a few weeks ago, and I'm obsessed with my iPhone 4S, by far the best phone I've owned thus far--Siri is awesome!) 

    Anyway, I wanted to pick him up something to make this much easier for him. I found this windshield/dashboard mount from Akron that is great for holding up any iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S to display. It looks like a great product that will make his job much easier, and not to mention a lot safer! He can find the place he needs to go using the "Maps" application on the iPhone, then simply place it in the mount holder and let the phone guide him to his destination!

Make His Day With a Massage in Orange County

Do you ever give someone a gift "just because?" It's a great way to let somebody know that they are appreciated and valued. It makes a person feel so special to get a gift "just because."

Last week, I picked up my man a gift certificate for his favorite place to get massages in Orange County: Cloud Mover Day Spa. They have a great menu of services available. They do waxing, massages, skincare and facials, body treatments, and more. The massages available (which is what he's going to use his gift certificate for) include hot stone, Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, Swedish/Relaxation, deep tissue, and many specialty massage treatments.

You can imagine my man's surprise when he came home from a long day at work to a gift certificate sitting on the table for him to use!

Batman Combo Gift


I like to give gifts that go together and compliment one another. I put a lot of effort into giving people presents (as you can tell, since I dedicate an entire blog to it!) I like to spend a long time deciding the perfect gift to give that will plaster an instant smile to their face. I came up with this fun idea for anybody to give to a man in their life that loves Batman.

Batman is a classic comic book superhero that is loved by many. There is a second movie coming out this summer as a sequel to "The Dark Knight." It's called "The Dark Knight Rises." This is supposed to be a box office hit and your man will LOVE being treated to a date night with you if you took him to this movie in theaters. A great addition to this movie date idea would be these Batman cufflinks. Every time he looks down at them, he can think of the great movie date you had together! These are fun and he will definitely be the envy of his friends.

A Great Read for a Guy



I was walking through the mall today since it rained all day. I like to try and stay busy even on rainy days when there's nothing more I feel like doing than laying in my bed and reading a good book. I'm a huge fan of books, and all kinds at that. I will read almost anything. Now that doesn't mean that I like everything, but I believe in giving every book a chance. Some of the books that I never thought I would like become my favorites!

Alex is always saying that he would like to get into reading. He sees how much I enjoy it and is interested in seeing what great books are out there. I picked him up this book today at Barnes and Noble. It's called Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk. It was on a display for books that are among the best of the month. I read the description and know he will love reading it. It's about a 19-year old who is scheduled to attend a tribute at a Dallas Cowboy's halftime with other surviving members of the Bravo Squad. He doesn't feel like a hero and thinks about his family and fallen comrades. It's a story about a man reflecting on his time and experiences in the Iraq war. If you have a Nook, this book is also available to purchase for your eReader.
