My husband and I aren't big gift givers. I never know what to get him for Christmas, let alone Valentine's Day, when it seems to be a holiday made for women.
I'm curious if you guys get anything for your husband? If so, what?

I've never been great at gift giving for my DH. Thanks to the peas, I hit it out of the park this year and surprised him. I got him a beef jerky crate from mancrate.com!
Thank you peas for the suggestion back around Christmas for this site!
All day today, I have sent him specific text to let him know just what I appreciate about him.
Most years, I'm dragging in late and try to 'do the deed' as best as I can muster. No libido really sucks for us both!

I sent FairyTale Brownies to DH's work today. He works with a bunch of guys so I sent enough to be shared with them all. He will love it, as will his co-workers. |

We usually all go out to dinner as a family. I might get DH some chocolates (and our girls too) but that is it.

I just got him a card and some of his favorite candy. He's offshore right now so he won't get it until he gets home.

Just chocolate covered strawberries. We will be doing an activity, like glass blowing, wooden sign painting, or going to the Magnolia silos, instead of buying each other something expensive that we don't need.

We don't do big gifts for each other, but his love language is hot sauces so I picked up a couple of new ones for him. I'm also making a special dinner for the family tonight (steak & lobster).

My DH is a pillow Princess, so I got him 2 new pillows and a body pillow. I've never seen a man nest like this guy! He had asked for them for Christmas, but then changed his mind, so I decided to make sure he gets them for Valentines Day

DH lost 60 pounds last year and he's been dressing a lot nicer. I got him a garment steamer and he LOVES it. I knew he'd like it and he really did. He wears a lot of half zip sweaters over dress shirts and the sweaters seem to get a bit rumpled in his drawer.

Nope!
I used to get him a gift and make him a card and make him a really nice dinner ( one year turkey with all the trimmings) but I got tired of never being acknowledged. Last year I made him a card and calendar thought I'd try one last time and got squat back so yeah he gets nothing not even a happy valentine's day when he gets home.
I think he's taking me out for dinner but it's more about him wanting to go out then about the actual day.
I now treat him the way he has treated me, it was one of the things I'm changing this year. Oh I did buy myself some scrappy stuff online today haha!
