i LOVE love

Iono about y'all but there's just something that immediately fills my soul when I walk into every store in America this time of year to find it lined in everything from lips and hearts to pink and red. I think I speak for millions when I say Valentine's Day is definitely a woman's holiday...even if it was created by none other than Hallmark. ;)

If it were appropriate for a 26-year old woman to hand out Valentine's day cards...I would. Specifically the kind with Channing Tatum on the front...


WHEW! Now that we're all hot and bothered...

I just love love. Who am I kidding? I also love any reason to buy gifts. With Valentine's Day coming up, I wanted to share some gift ideas for anyone in your life...from your co-workers and furchildren, to your in-laws and even yourself. Because treating yourself to something nice every once in a while is a total necessity, right? Right.
Vday

While wine and presents are fun and all, I must say one of my absolute favorite Valentine's I ever spent with Beau was waking up that morning with a shiny little rock on my left hand and someone to call "my fiance". And to think that was THREE years ago already. Where the hay does the time go?!

I'm still not 100% sure what I'm getting my Valentine since I kinda spoiled him for his birthday, which, I might add, was less than a month ago. Any creative ideas are welcome!

What has been your favorite Valentine's gift to give to your guy?!

  1. Obsessed with that arrow bracelet!!!

    Jason and I actually don't gift on this holiday. We put our efforts into a fantastic date day, and let the gift be our quality time. As cheesy as it sounds, it's actually really nice to be wrapped up in finding the gift and be more wrapped up in enjoying each others company.

  3. Love this! and LOVE that you love Valentine's day! I feel like I keep reading about people who don't celebrate it or don't like it...so lame. I love it!
    Our first Vday I made him a jar and put heart shaped post-it notes in there (a ton), one for him to open each day. Each of them had something I loved about him or a fun memory or something I was looking forward to. It was fun, but a lot of work.

  5. I hear ya on guys gifts, they suck! We actually won't be together for Vday, the husband will be out of town for work, waaah! And it's our 6 month wedding anniversary that week - HOW RUDE ;) My favorite Vday together (so far) was actually when we went to HOUSTON for vacay! We had a picnic at the Water Wall, and then went to Papasitos(I think that's how you spell it..) for dinner, and it was straight out of a MOVIE in there! I always make him homemade gifts, this year we gave each other a $30 limit, which actually makes it harder! Boxers always work? Or one of those pinterest "guys baskets," with booze, favorite snacks, that kinda thing? Have fun in vegas lady!

  6. Such cute ideas...I think some heart boxers may be in order this year! Best gift I gave Jason was a trip to Arizona to watch their bball team play on Valentines Day! He was a spoiled boy before baby-boo came along. :)

  8. Love the gift guide! We don't do presents anymore...just a nice dinner and I usually get flowers. I like to save the gift money for bigger/better birthday presents! :)
