What are your Valentine plans??

[~*Kathy*~]

Well, Valentine's day is two days before I head out for Mexico....so I will be using a spa gift-card my best friend got me as a wedding shower gift to get a French mani & pedi, haircut & style and deep conditioning. My FI is paying for my hair to get dyed that day too (yay, my hair is soooooooo boring right now!) so I'll probably be there for a good 4+ hours. I'm so excited!!!

Yay me.

haha, that sounds like us. We don't usually do anything special since it's kind of a Hallmark holiday (no offence to anyone)...that and it's six days after FI's b-day, so we just do something for his b-day anyhow.

I just feel that is getting old and I should try something different. But I have no idea what! I've already done the "go away for a weekend", "go to a super nice restaurant", "buy sexy lingerie", etc. route. Got any ideas He's not really materialistic. Kinda the anti-materialistic. He thinks everything is a waste of money. Unless it has to do with his car, of course. Anyway, I am at a total loss. It's our first Valentine's married and I have no clue how to make it special!

I'm with you. Although we have the plans at the resort I don't have anything planned for him just yet....
Still thinking....
We have lots of creative people on here we should be able to think of something...

we also decidednot to do anything major this year, we will probably just go to dinner

I do admit that I hated Valentine's Day before I met FI.

Maybe that's half my struggle??

I did a search & came up with a few "for him" things!

We usually just go to our favorite sushi place or get take-out and hang out at home. This year V-day is 10 days before my due date, so maybe we'll be having a baby that night instead!

we've ordered in every v-day since our first together, when we were lost in a ghetto and 3 hours late for an overpriced dinner at a just-ok restaurant...however, this year, since our anniversary is 2/16, we'll be using our tao gift certificate on 2/13, and i'll be going back into nyc on 2/14 to spend the night with out of town friends.

FI doesn't know but I am taking him for a suprise trip to Austin. We are going to go to 6th street and I got tickets for us to see his favorite band there! I just hope I don't ruin the suprise. I am so bad at them!!!
