Basically what I'm doing is that I'm giving him a memory box with some stuff I put together for him. I also made him a really nice card with a heartfelt poem that I wrote. I made him a poem book with pictures I have taken as well. : } And don't forget the CD with random videos I took of us and a slideshow of pictures from the past 2 years. I'm doing all this stuff because Valentine's is our first anniversary. ♥
Well, I found this great website that has a lot of ideas that people sent in. A lot of great ideas... cheap, creative, sweet. So if you need other ideas, here you go: http://scripts.lovingyou.com/mdb/search....
It helped me come up with some ideas and stuff.
Check it out!

4 Ways to Ruin Valentine's Day -- and How to Avoid Them

Valentine's Day is the Super Bowl of romance -- all the build-up, all the potential, all the promise of lots and lots of scoring. But like the Super Bowl, most V-days are letdowns, filled with fumbles, wobbly passes, and missed opportunities to, uh, split the uprights. Why? Many guys who are attached, semi-attached, or about-to-be-attached simply tend to run the same plays year after year, making Valentine's Day as predictable as finales of The Bachelor. Though the average man spends about $125 on Valentine's Day, he's likely not spending it in the right places (probably because the guys I surveyed for "Men, Love & Sex" consider V-Day a hassle, not an opportunity). Only 1 in 5 women say they want the traditional dinner and less than that want the traditional card and flowers (about 15 percent). For guys reading this, here's how to upgrade your playbook to make sure you live up to her great (and until now, possibly undeserved) expectations. And ladies, if you want a truly romantic Valentine's Day, anonymously e-mail this story to the man in your life.
Not... A card
Instead... An e-mail
Of course, there's nothing wrong with Hallmark's finest. You can go funny or romantic, short or long, the $2.99 version or the $6.99 monster card. But really. Your bed-buddy basically knows the gist of what's inside -- some variation of the words "you," "love," and "special." Instead, here's what you do. The night of Feb. 13, fire off an e-mail to your beloved so it's the first thing she opens on the 14th. Try, say, a top 10 list of reasons why you love her. Numbers 10, 7, 5, and 3 are insanely specific and funny habits that only she has. Numbers 9 and 2 are wonderfully earnest big-picture ideas about how (beautiful/smart/compassionate) she is. Number 8 quotes a lyric from her favorite song. Numbers 6 and 4 refer in some way to her amazing bedroom talents. And number 1, well, it better be good.
Not... Roses
Instead... An orchid
She's expecting roses. Red ones. Perhaps she's expecting that you're expecting something in return because you bought red roses. Men know the power of the curveball (to catch the hitter off guard), so start throwing them, would ya? By buying some kind of flower that won't wilt in a week, like an orchid, you're tapping into her symbolic side. When she sees a lasting flower, she sees a lasting relationship. That's much sexier than the clichéd box of a dozen reds. And orchids have kind of an exotic sexual appeal--they're the plant world's passion pits. So dive in.
Not... Restaurants
Instead... Finger foods
I'm all for candlelit dinners, nice bottles of wine, and festive restaurant atmospheres. But V-Day at restaurants is like Fridays at 5 o'clock at the airport -- there's way too much traffic out there. That means you have about as much chance for privacy as a topless starlet frolicking in a fountain during the Cannes Film festival. You could make dinner at home, but instead, order in finger foods -- sushi, egg rolls, chocolate-dipped fruits. Do it right, and you'll be using your hands to feed each other and wipe smudges of chocolate off each other's lips. Which makes for a nice natural transition to other things you can do with your hands, mouths, and bodies.
Not... Lace
Instead... Cotton
She sees a wrapped box with a ribbon on it, and she can make three guesses as to what's inside. Red lacy lingerie. Black fishnet lingerie. Or black and red lingerie that has the approximate acreage of a coffee saucer. Many women have no problem with receiving lingerie for gifts, but they tend to be less than thrilled when a man makes his purchase based on what he likes, rather than what she might. This year, go with boy shorts and a cotton tank -- which can be even sexier than the aforementioned unmentionables. You'll have a much better chance of her modeling them for you. Then helping her remove them. Slowly.

This works. Buy yourself some hot stuff at Victoria's Secret (or Frederick's of Hollywood) and wait for him atop your bed. I recommend fetish stuff like sheer underwear, stockings, heels and a feathery boa. Give him yourself.
