News Flash - Valentine's Day is our favorite holiday! Trying to figure out the perfect gift this year? So are we. This year, as we try to do every few years, we decided to educate ourself on marriage. Taking a course, workshop or some other marital class should be on every married couple's to-do list at some point. These things take work, amirite? We couldn't possible list them all for you, but here are a few for our northern California peeps here below. A simple internet search or asking at your church might produce great results for everyone else! Challenge Day for Couples February 18-19, 2017 Concord, CA Gottman's Couples Workshop Multiple Weekends Mill Valley, CA John Grey's Healing Couples Retreat Multiple Dates Sonoma County, CA Getting the Love You Want workshop Multiple dates San Ramon, CA Note: We cannot vouch for any of these except Challenge Day, which we recommend wholeheartedly. Have suggestions for others? Feel free to share them here or on our FB page! Only 10 days left until our favorite holiday and we know just how difficult it is to find that perfect gift or bargain! Well, we have gobs of ideas in our book (of course) - but here are a few more to get you started:
Nothing says 'love' like FITNESS - want your partner to 'stick around' for along time? Keep him or her healthy with a pedometer like FitBit! Here's a little secret about FitBit that not everyone knows - if you lose your FitBit, they will replace it one time for FREE! What a great idea. Plus, the $99 models track your sleep, a nice feature. Not much of a health nut? Papa Murphy's sells heart-shaped pizza's over Valentine's! Loved one forget all those Important dates? Make a t-shirt or coffee mug with all the anniversaries, etc! Flowers & Chocolates Again? Of course, but mix it up this time - maybe some flowers you can PLANT this year or some chocolates from a Chocalatier instead of the local grocery store!! Whatever you do - it will be grand - just put some HEART into it!! xoxo After dozens of birthdays, christmases, valentine's and father or mother's day gifts - you've run out of new, fresh, affordable ideas, haven't you?! Well it happens to all of us!!! We welcome the sharing of ideas either here or on our Facebook page: http:www.facebook.com/betterpartners
Also - check out BOTH our Valentine's day page AND our Surprise Me month page for ideas too. Here's a few more to help get the creative juices flowing: Make a cd of your love songs Make a customized crossword puzzle (we hear this is how jon stewart proposed to his wife!) Hide valentines under your pets' collar and send them in with a special delivery Simply showing up unexpected with a picnic basket still works great Decorate!!! The car, the bedroom, the kitchen - anything! Fill a room with balloons! Write a poem and have it printed on a coffee mug or shirt Share your ideas too - we could all use some new ones! |
