2. no

!. Nope, a fun filled dinner with the MIL
2. We usually exchange cards. It is our Engagement Anniv. after all
3.Nope, I am making heart shaped strawberry cupcakes,though...lol
He said he has something planned, so we'll see...
I tried to do the whole "no gift" thing but he already had something for me. So now I've got to find something today...I have NO clue what to get him.
1 - are you and SO/DH going on a "date"? Where/what? Maybe but I would rather have some Thai food from our favorite restaurant delivered. I so don't want to have to deal with any long restaurant waits.
2 - are you getting him anything? I got him a card, two heart shaped cookies - one small and one big that say, "kiss me" and "love me" and the final gift is the Kings of Leon CD
3 - is he getting you anything? I'm not sure, but he always gets me something and surprises me everytime
1. At home
2. Probably a card - or a hand written note on his PS3. I'm a softie mofo.
3. I'm hoping for the femme equivalent of a steak and a BJ
1. Eating at Din Tai Fung Dumpling House in Arcadia
Then we're going to see Aida.
2. A new wedding ring. He lost his over Christmas. I'm stoked that the price
of gold has dropped since this summer.
3 - He got me the opera tickets.
1. We planned a very early dinner at like 3ish (or more like a very late lunch) at Tulsa Rib Co. And I booked a room at the Doubletree for the evening! They have a romance package with champagne and breakfast in bed and late check out at a super reasonable price! Even for the weekend!
2. I guess the room and some softball stuff. Got his glove relaced, a better bat and a real bag to carry all his crap in. (My love language is 'gifts' obviously.)
3. I know he got me something I just dont know what! I ramble about things I would love to have all the time so we'll see what he comes up with!!!
1. I have a wedding that day, so after that it's carpet picnic and scary movies until we pass out.
2. Teensy cheap stuff from target.
3. We'll see?
2 - I have a card for him?
3 - Does buying myself a necklace on line under the guise of a vday present for myself count? Other than that i dont know...
I'm cooking us both a romantic dinner at home.
clam dip with crackers
surf n' turf - rib eye steak, and seared scallops
mushroom risotto
roasted asparagus
chocolate liqueur souffle
2. No.
3. No.
1. making cheese fondue at home and drinking some champagne. I might make creme brulee for dessert, not sure yet.
2. we said no presents, but he loves caramel apples from rocky mtn choc factory so I'll get him one of those. and a card.
3. I don't know, he's given me gifts before when we've said no gifts so I guess we'll see.
1. We'll be in Palm Desert with the ILs. I don't know why, but for the past 5 years I have spent V-Day with my ILs. I just realized that. Weird.
