A little late with Love..

I know Valentines's Day was 6 days ago, but I've been a little busy lately, so better late than never right?! So remember how much I said I love Valentine's Day? I guess it's not so much the actual day, but I just love surprises...giving and receiving them:) Last year, my friend Whitney blogged about what she had done for her husband for Valentine's Day, 14 Days of Surprises. I thought it was so clever, it caught my eye and I made a mental note that I wanted to do the same thing for Patty boy this year. Thanks to Whit's blog and pinterest, plus a few of my own twists, I think I came up with some pretty good "surprises." Of course, these are all some of my hubs favorite things, tried to tie as many as I could into the 14 days.


DAY ONE




DAY TWO  




DAY THREE



DAY FOUR



DAY FIVE



DAY SIX




DAY SEVEN




DAY EIGHT



DAY NINE



DAY TEN




DAY ELEVEN




DAY TWELVE





DAY THIRTEEN





DAY FOURTEEN






The last gift was a complete surprise to Pat, he had mentioned some time ago that he really wanted this watch..but this is something he'd never buy for himself. So me, being the sweet and thoughtful wife that I am ;), ordered it for him. I loved seeing his face on the last day, put such a smile on my face in return. 

I would have to say, that I thoroughly enjoyed those 14 days, I hid each item in a different place every day to make it fun, so he was always surprised with where it would be sitting. It brought a smile to his face, started his day off good, which in return put a smile on my face. Sometimes it's the little things that mean the most. All of this (besides the watch) probably cost under $30. I found the heart templates online and then edited them in picmonkey, then printed them on white cardstock and cut out. Super simple. If you are looking for a clever, inexpensive Vday gift next year, keep it in mind!
