“It's true that it doesn't make sense straight off the bat that someone would shop for a Valentine's Day gift at Home Depot. But we do see a high volume of traffic just before the holiday.” - John Simley
So what are you getting your Valentine this year? What are memorable gifts from past Valentine's days?
When Bruce and I were dating we had a heart shaped pizza for dinner, that was memorable. As was the recent year when Bruce greeted me after work in a pirate costume and took me to Burgerville. You can imagine the stares we got. I don't remember the gifts, I remember the experiences. And that sums up Bruce!
Anastasia was telling me the other day that she enjoys the unique Valentines Day gifts they get, and was remembering the wax lips from last year. Xander wrote his class Valentines this year, I think this is the last year we'll see those flimsy little cards, which is kind of sad but kind of a relief.

We keep it simple. Some years it is a card, other years it is flowers (usually the grocery store variety)... but either way I know they come from the heart and love whatever he gives me.
I always go all out for the kids. Bill is usually deployed in February so we don't make a big deal baout it. If he is some place where ther is internet access he will FTD flowers to me though. I like that you have experiences to remember, sweet.
After looking at Kitsel's cards, I was sad that my boys are "too old" to share those kind of valentines.
We're not real big on Valentine's Day. I cna't believe he picked you up in a pirate costume! Too fun!
