Need help with BIRTHDAY Ideas for my boyfriend's 19th birthday....can anyone HELP?!?

Hi, My boyfriend and I have been together about ten months now. His 19th birthday is in august and so is mine! (his: august 1st mine: august 20th) He keeps talking about how much money he has to spend for my birthday present and how its going to the best birthday present ANYBODY has EVER received, and that really scares me! Since his is before mine, I dont want to do anything overboard or anything too cheap. He says all he wants on his birthday is me...but I want to do more than that! I was going to drive down to jacksonville beach, fl for his birthday and just hang out on the beach for a day since its only 4 hours away from us, but I started calculating the cost of the hotel, dining, and riding jet ski's and its a little over my budget ($300). Now i've been researching some stuff online and cant seem to find anything. I dont want to do a scrap book because me and him have been working on one together, and we add new stuff in there every month. I know he likes polo and air jordan's. I also know he's mentioned an ipod touch and the new lg rumor 2. He also is an athlete, which means he loves sports. He's not really a flashy type of guy, but he likes to look nice. The only problem with that is we have two totally different taste in clothes! I wanted to make him a gift basket with a bunch of little things that he likes or would like. Can anyone give me some new ideas or add on to ones that I already had to make them better? Best Regards -jdoe.

As a guy, I think that unless he is shallow, it wont matter what you get him, as long as you show him you love him and your there. I mean its not about buying the most expensive or flashy thing if hes a nice guy, somthing loving from you to him, personl and meaningful. like, getting him a ring maybe, you can get a stering silver ring kinda cheap these days, maybe a fancy one and inside have a personal message written. its romantic and loving from you to him, and yet its beachboy cool enough to wear with his mates and not worry. Id go for something along those lines....Hmmm, Im a nice guy...why am I single, haha.
