I have an idea...

that just reminded me of the AXE body spray commerical with the guy made of chocolate. People just go up to him and take bites out of him!

lol The body chocolate thing is great, I actually have some from the Bridal shower, I hid it though b/c I don't want him to see it and then beg me to use it. I will decide when I want to use it haha

What does DH like to do? If he likes Video Games, maybe you can both go to the storea nd get a game and play together? I know DH and I are huge nerds, and gamers, so we would enjoy that.

I know you don't want end up on the couch all day, but what if you rented a few movies?? Maybe you can go and get one of those 'scene it' games, and compete against each other, if it will let you. :-/

Maybe you guys can go take a trip down to the beach. I know whenever I want to go somewhere that isn't too far, but is beautiful, I like to go down to Long Beach where I grew up and take a walk on the boardwalk. :) Since the weather seems to be pretty nice, maybe you can go do that?

I was actually thinking the same thing. We dont really exchange gifts for Valentines day anymore. I will probably pick up some chocolates for him.

We might go to the Museum of Art just for a day out.

I am getting DH a video game.. and he found out about it but maybe something he likes?

i'm finally giving DH the boudoir album he saw the photos i took and he loved them but i didn't actually give him a physical book yet - i had been working on the layouts forever b/c i wanted it to be perfect.....he asks for it once in awhile - and we kind of joke about it - so now that the wedding is over (and i started THAT album) i had to finish the boudoir one.....i had it printed and hopefully it gets delivered today or tomorrow!

i was also going to get him a small gift.....

don't think we are doing anything crazy that day - probably no dinner - we didn't make reservations for anything so we'll probably end up ordering something to eat.....i suggested maybe breakfast/brunch and then see a matinee? but we do that on regular weekends so its nothing 'special'

What layout did you use for your book? I am starting to work on one for the wedding, too.

i used picaboo for the boudoir and i started a wedding album on there too.....i tried to do a lot of different layouts - like working around the ones they have - so its not just the pictures inside of boxes......i can try posting some of the layouts i did when i get home.......i really have to figure out how to make spreads in photoshop and then just dump those into the album - but i haven't had the time to play around with it too much - i have to try finding some info online on how to use photoshop to make spreads - and then i can just put that into the album as an entire page....

Definitely let us see the album layouts! I have been working on Shutterfly. It is very user friendly and easy, but I feel so, so limited with the layouts. For example, it doesn't let you place pictures on top of a background that spans two pages. I'd be willing to experiment with another program if I can be more creative....

sorry for going off topic!

i know if it were ME staying home all day for V-Day, I would definitely wanna get DH a Wii or Playstation (if i could afford it). Then we'd be able to play some games during the day while we're home relaxing. lol. I know's he's been wanting the Playstation 3, but I fear him getting his hands on one because he may become an addict. haha.
