Valentine's Day Mishaps

This is my Life: Valentine's Day Mishaps 

I'm a hopeless romantic.  I know, big surprise.  ;)  I love the sappy stuff.  

This is me right here, kissing in the rain!

But, as a woman, buying for a guy for Valentine's Day is a challenge.   I never know what to buy and or make for my husband!!!  
One of our first Valentine's Days as a married couple, I got him a precious moment.  Yes, you read that right!! A precious moment. 

This one to be exact.  I lined up cards in our apartment, 10 cards, each one with a reason why I love him.  He followed the trail and it led him to his amazing gift!!!! Let's just say, this was an epic fail. (It now resides on my dresser).

You would have thought I learned a lesson from this one right?  Nope.  A few years ago, Anthony told me randomly one day that a reason why he wasn't reading at night was because he did not have a light on his side of the bed.  So, me, thinking this was such a cute thoughtful idea, bought us matching bedside lamps for HiS gift.

Yes, these are the lamps! Matching little bedside lamps.  I wish I had his reaction recorded because they've been funny!  He graciously accepts my silly gifts!

I can't recall presents from Anthony..which is probably a good thing!  Nothing bad has stuck out.  I've got a good Mother's Day failed gift, lol, but no Valentine's Day ones. I did just ask him and he remembers buying me the nice family frame we have downstairs.  That was really nice! I used to have it in my office when I worked out of our home, which was one of the main reasons he bought it.  

Needless to say, instead of spending our money on silly objects that really don't matter in the long run for us, we chose to spend quality time together every year.  So....we now enjoy

A couples massage together every Valentine's Day. (I chose this picture because it actually looks like us!, haha).  But, the thing we long for most is relaxing quality time together.  So, with this, we get the car ride and a peaceful massage which the Spa makes really romantic!!! It's so fun.  The hopeless romantic in me loves the rose pedals all around because we don't get the "romantic" moments much anymore.  But, on Valentine's Day every year, we now have this, which I'm so grateful for. 

What are some of your "mishaps" on the most romantic day of the year??? ;)
