Year of Living

Guys.. it doesn’t take much. My wife has been away for a week.. that seemed like a lifetime! Yes.. I guess I’m hooked! So I wanted to try and express how much I cherish her and make her really feel loved. Did it take a big budget? Nope, actually, all under 20€ and a whole lot of fun!

You start with 130 balloons and stay up all night blowing them up. Along the way you scare the daylights out of the neighbors, or should I say night lights as some of the balloons burst at 3am! Then you get some string and hang them in the entry hallway, elevator entrance and her bedroom. Followed by party plates to make the scene a festive one welcoming her home.

Love hearts on the lounge wall.. bunnies in the bedroom.. suggestion time..guys.. you know what bunny’s like to do and more love hearts above her head for when she wakes up in the night or morning.

At the entrance to the “love room”, a reminder of how it all started. The day she “dared to love her”. It was on a gift box/bag, that I most likely got as a sympathy gift after our official first date, in which I bombed disastrously!

P.S. If you really want to step it up a notch, you know how much women love for you to do things around the house! So I grabbed a cork board, some hooks, and made a “dohicky” for her to hang her earrings & necklaces. Right in front of the mirror where she gets dressed in the bathroom.

And don’t forget the lollies; women love candy. Now how simple was that?!?!?!

And then we played bunny rabbit until we fell over and slept
