Default Valentines Gifts

So I got Stinky a new frying pan for valentines day.
He went to town with it this morning.

Did you get your valentine anything special?

Got her a set of tires for the car. Don't really celebrate the made up for Hallmark holiday. It's valentines everyday and hallway sex!

Default Roses

I bought my wife and daughter roses. Guess I'm kind of a sucker for valentines. Funny thing is at the flower shop the girl asked me if one was for my wife and one for the girlfriend. Seems to be common in my town.

Good Job Stinky!!!

I don't buy into all those cheap......... who say Valentine's day is commercialized etc. Blah blah blah.

Most go through the year without letting those we love know how we feel. Too busy

Valentine's day makes a person stop and think about those they love and take the time to express it.

In my case I went to the gun show and bought her two boxes of ammo and a camo vest. The only problem was the vest only came in my size, so we'll have to share it.

I remember the first time a girl told me she loved me. I got all red in the face but it felt good. Aren't moms great!!!!

My wifes exact comments:

"Ridiculous made up holiday corporate cash grab by the card and flower companies. Don't show your love to me ONE DAY out of the year, show you love me all the days."



( so....nope, no presents here.....but we are heading out on the lake to go fishing in about 1/2 hour! )

Mine says exactly the same,

Just for $jits and giggles I looked at some of the valentine cards, average price is $6.00 it gets read then thrown aside, then in the recycle bin, to us that is a waste of money.

My wife and three daughters each got a small bouquet of flowers. The price of cards is insane. $9.99 for some. What a waste of money. Gonna hit the sawmill for supper tonight also.

You know,
In a different context one might think you were taking about your favourite 4 legged hunting friend

The wife has been kind enough to let me run wild on my cross country shooting adventures the past couple of weekends so today I let her sleep in while I watched our son . And a gold dipped rose like last year.

We should ban you.

Do you realize if my wife looks over my shoulder and sees this I will be in trouble !!!!!! She got a nice take out dinner and .... an e-card (she hates going out when it's busy).

You are gourmet cooking!!!! what's wrong with you posting those photos!!!!

BAN FATHER OF FIVE BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE !!!!!!
