This is what my hubby brought home for Valentines for me! Pretty sweet, huh?! One dozen long stemmed red roses in the vase with the baby's breath and ribbon! I have to say that I was pretty impressed and very HAPPY! Neil doesn't always bring me flowers because of my allergies. These roses do not have any smell, the baby's breath smells like honey suckle. :o)
The card on the left is my card to him and on the right is his card to me. We've had silly cards, serious cards, simple cards but both of these were very nice cards. :o) After 41 years of marriage he still surprises me! ♥
The heart shaped box he gave me about 28 years ago. Yes, I still have it! Why? To remind me that once I did get a box of chocolates, a huge box of chocolates! It has the very faintest scent of chocolate inside. When I am in the store I look at the boxes of chocolates and I have to say, I haven't seen any near as pretty as the one I got long ago! Am I going to keep the roses? Probably not, but at least I have a picture!

Valentines - Sweet Memories!
We are usually practical when it comes to Valentines. I have to say that he always gets dark chocolate kisses from me. I'll have to do better next year! :o)

I LOVE that you still have this box! I totally remember it from the good ol' days:) It sounds like you two had a very sweet Valentines Day!
So true, I just don't see any amazingly ribbon-adorned boxes like that these days. Perhaps I should look harder - or better yet, ask Bob to look harder ;)
Happy Valentines Day you cute kids!
