If your husband has been on a long trip, then when he comes back he may be tired and looking forward to home comforts. Cook him his favorite meal, and have it ready when he gets back. If it is something particularly aromatic, then the smell will be enticing as soon as he walks through the door. Enjoy the dinner together and you will get to spend some quality time together while doing something nice for your husband.
Spa

If you are feeling very romantic, join him in the bath, and enjoy a glass of sparkling wine together. This will show him how much you missed him, and is something he will truly appreciate.

Date Night

If you have children, then it may be difficult for you to spend some time being romantic when your husband returns. Book a babysitter for the night after he gets back, and go out on a date night. Go to the cinema or to the theater, and then out for some drinks. Make this a surprise, and organize the transportation yourself. Your husband will appreciate the effort, and it will be romantic to spend time together away from the kids.
Massage
-
Massages are extremely romantic, owing to the close physical contact that occurs. If you are not good at massage, then hire a professional to make a house call. This will be a surprise for your husband, and will help to relax him if a trip has been particularly stressful. If you do the massage yourself, put on relaxing music and use massage oils. This will relax him, and will show him that you have missed him.
