14 Days of Valentine's - for the hubby!

***This post was written in 2011!***

I am one of those that isn't such a big fan of Valentine's Day. I think that we need to express our love more than just once a year. I also don't like going out on Valentine's Day because it's always so busy & expensive. In my efforts to show my love towards my hubby better I was inspired when I read her 14 Days of Valentine's tradition. I am getting so excited to surprise Steve and do something so unexpected. Knowing that he never reads my blog...especially this one...I am posting my ideas for this year...my 1st Annual 14 Days Of Valentines!!

**Tues Feb 1-Write a poem to introduce what I'm doing (but I don't want to give too much info!) and invite him to our Valentines date... plus add a little chocolate or yummy treat
**Wed Feb 2-Just the 2 of us... 2 tickets to a movie for the weekend
**Thurs Feb 3- Give him a picture of the 3 kids for him to put in his office
**Fri Feb 4- Date night to do sealings and remember our own sealing
**Sat Feb 5- Breakfast in bed
**Sun Feb 6- 6 ways to say I love you on his truck windows with a car wash coupon (oh shoot...he can't wash his truck until Monday!)
**Mon Feb 7- Watch a flick in bed after kids are asleep... maybe Flipped or Valentines Day
**Tues Feb 8- I'll love you for eternity (8 sideways) love note
**Wed Feb 9- turn on romantic music at 6am for an early morning wake up call!
**Thurs Feb 10- 10 fingers to rub your 10 toes
**Fri Feb 11- Remember our first dance, kiss, date, etc (I'm going to try to remember 11 firsts!)
**Sat Feb 12- 12 months worth of dates...I want to make a book with money/tickets/etc and a date idea for each month this year.
**Sun Feb 13- Put kids to bed early...Romantic homemade candle light dinner
**Mon Feb 14- FHE about why we love Dad - make a slide show with a bunch of pictures with dad...all this after our heart shaped pizza dinner.

I am intentionally trying to make this inexpensive yet thoughtful and surprising. I am excited to try this one out...I hope he likes it!!
