I took him to the public library (where there's a piano) to play it for him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day/page/2#post-566805 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 13:51:37 +0000 dojo 566805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't remember... it's been too long!</p> <p>But I DO remember what he got me: we were in college and he got some candy from the grocery store and a dog toy that he thought was a stuffed animal and had put them in a bud light box which he covered in wrapping paper - I was a little annoyed at the time but after that it was just kind of funny and I've never let him forget about it - he gets a pass thought because valentines is his birthday and we don't really do gifts so much anymore </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day/page/2#post-566801 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 13:49:50 +0000 chopsuey 566801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nothing! :( Just my love.<br /> He got me chocolate covered strawberries and yummy food </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day/page/2#post-566725 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 13:24:19 +0000 Honeybee 566725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: A nice dinner in Hawaii sounds awesome to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day/page/2#post-566723 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 13:23:55 +0000 Boogs 566723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All we have ever done is exchange cards and have dinner.

What was I thinking?</p> <p>There was a blanket his ex girlfriend made him on the bed at the time so I bought him a nice one to replace it. It is still on our bed today!</p> <p>He bought me a tent.</p> <p>Then we went to the beach cabin and almost missed the last ferry off the island! We would have had to stay the night and my parents would have grounded me. Good thing that didnt happen! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566624 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 12:38:49 +0000 Honeybee 566624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: lol! I pre-ordered him season 2 of Game of Thrones for Christmas, but it didn't ship until today so I told him that was his gift. He got me a bird house, candy, and a really sweet card... not quite the same level... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566563 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 12:12:39 +0000 loveisstrange 566563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were freshman in college and broke and I made him homemade chocolate covered strawberries. </p> <p>My favorite was the year he was away in tech school for the USAF. I sent him a care package full of random stuff: a pair of novelty boxers, a handmade Cthulhu plush toy, chocolates, naughty pictures of me and a jar that I decorated with glittery hearts and filled with pieces of paper that all had a different reason I loved him on them. We still have the jar, it's on the bookshelf in our living room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566558 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 12:11:22 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 566558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: OMG, we totally live parallel lives. Today I woke up to a beautiful card and my very favorite artisan chocolates (don't worry, I'll share!) and I got him nothing. Whoops!</p> <p>I'll take him for a romantic (family) dinner in Hawaii! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566545 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 12:04:38 +0000 Honeybee 566545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: I got him nothing, btw. I fail at sentimentality. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566481 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 11:40:56 +0000 Smurfette 566481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Lol!

But he made me peanut butter cookies and bought me an emerald necklace, and then I got norovirus, so it was notttt funnnn. haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566465 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 11:36:14 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 566465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: sweetheart: what he did yesterday with the folks should hold him over for awhile! Haha:))) and I hope you replied "F yeah!"</p> <p>He got me a huge bouquet of roses and we went to dinner. Later that week he got me a little diamond necklace? And I was like "why didn't you just give this to me earlier on vday?" Apparently his mom found out all he got me were roses and she flipped out on him and told him to get his behind to a jewelry counter,pronto!<br /> :) it's been jewelry (albeit simple) ever since.<br /> This year he works late but we will def celebrate over the weekend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566445 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 11:30:21 +0000 HLK208 566445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: lol!</p> <p>I can't even remember?

He got me a card and a bouquet of tiger lilies. We went out to eat at Ruby Tuesday's (we were still in high school so not a ton of money for a super fancy place). But the best part was that at the end of the night we said "I love you" for the first time and stood hugging under the stars for an hour or two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566227 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 10:10:01 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 566227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: Awwww! you've got a keeper ;-) </p> <p>@twodoghouse: LOL - I have no response!</p> <p>@PrincessBaby: *swoon* at your first one, and I'm laughing so hard at his "gift" for you today. </p> <p>@bunnylove08: That pic is seriously adorable!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566189 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 09:59:14 +0000 mrs. bird 566189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to dinner at this tiny little place near my old apartment, then we went to a cabaret show at a bar where I wrote on his hand 'now I know what love is' which would later become my tattOOPS. Here is a funny pic from that night, I love it because I look insanely happy and he looks evil :D </p> [attach=2301/13/mi7to5.600x399.image.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566153 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 09:44:42 +0000 bunnylove08 566153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>he got a card from dd </p> [attach=3066/13/mi7syi.450x600.377575_10100287067436614_2043553760_n.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566054 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 09:17:09 +0000 cascademom 566054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: haha, I think I love your DH. My husband says that to me sometimes when we've been bogged down with baby sleep and stuff. Enjoy loud, baby waking sex in your own quiet home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566048 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 09:15:20 +0000 cascademom 566048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thinking back I think we did something awesome. He took me out to Tiffany's for a heart necklace I was lusting over, then to a play, and finally for dinner at the Peninsula Chicago. I think that I gave him Pyrex dishes that year because I hated his dishes at his apartment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-566009 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 08:56:09 +0000 MsLipGloss 566009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Seems like a fair trade for his heroic efforts yesterday with your ILs. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-565999 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 08:50:41 +0000 PrincessBaby 565999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our first VDay was the best!</p> <p>DH was working offshore, and we skyped on VDay. He told me to point the laptop at the tv. I was like,"The tv is off..." He told me to do it anyway...Then he told me to get up and look behind the TV, so he could watch...I looked and there was a present back there that he had hidden before he left 2 weeks prior. It was a beautiful pair of earrings, but I totally swooned over the planning! </p> <p>I had never had anyone do something so thoughtful and sweet for me:). It made me feel so special!</p> <p>Fast forward to today, 5 years later, where he just walked into the nursery to hand me my coffee while I nurse, and he said,"You are having sex with me today." And walked out, lol...So I guess that's my VDay pres, lol! Not as much thought but that's ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-565976 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 08:36:09 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 565976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had been dating a month and were really serious from the get-go, so I bought some naughty lingerie and after we went to dinner, and he gave me purple tulips (my fave), we did the deed for the first time, haha. I'll never forget it. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-565931 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 08:01:52 +0000 twodoghouse 565931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nine years ago today and it was.... my virginity! Seriously, I'm not even joking! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-your-so-for-your-first-valentines-day#post-565930 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 07:58:44 +0000 Dandelion 565930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea! I guess a card and maybe some candy? I do know that he gave me the sweetest card and a cute little plush puppy that is still next to the TV in our bedroom. </p>
