Beautiful Wintery Nature Scenes
Winter brings with her frigid weather, snow, and ice, and most of the time, I keep away form those by staying inside.
But a few days ago, we had a winter storm with freezing rain, and the results were beautiful scenery. I felt bad for my poor and
, but also took the oportunity to snap a few pictures.
Below is a slide show from my front yard.

Bring Romance Back Into Your Marriage Now
Has the gone out of your marriage? Here are some ways to bring the romance back into your marriage:
Spend a quiet evening together. Have someone baby sit the kids out of the house. Turn off the , the telephone, and all other distractions. Have a candlelight dinner. This will set the mood and the tone for the evening.
Go out on a date! Choose a special low-key restaurant with candlelight and a fireplace. Another idea is to meet at a specific place at a specific time each week; you and your spouse can take turns choosing the place. Plan something special. Surprise each other. The anticipation will put you both in the mood very quickly. Think An Affair To Remember: Part II!
Have a themed dinner. Recreate your honeymoon night. Perhaps you spent it in the Caribbean. Prepare a Caribbean meal, decorate your home to suit the occasion, and go with it! Let your imagination run wild.
Ladies, prepare a romantic evening by setting all around your home: play a CD with romantic music and set the mood for your spouse. Meet your spouse at the door wearing an especially stunning piece of lingerie.
How about a cozy fare? Perhaps setting a blanket on the floor in front of the fireplace, with candles and a picnic basket filled with cheeses and crackers and grapes! How romantic is that? You know, if you and your spouse were romantic to begin with, it won’t take much of a stretch to rekindle that fire. Sometimes, life gets in the way, but you can certainly spare one night to bring back the romance into your marriage.

Valentine’s Gift Ideas for Your Hubby
is an occasion for people to show their love for one another. For husbands and wives, it is a time to go above and beyond for the person that we have pledged to love as long as we live. Here are some ideas for Valentine’s Day gifts that your husband is sure to love.
The first rule of gift giving is to give a gift that the receiver will cherish. Erroneously, we often choose a gift that we would like to receive and give it to someone else. We shouldn’t wonder why they are less than head over heels about the gift. On Valentine’s Day this rule is very important since the name of the game is demonstrating our love for another.
With that said, let’s move on to the special man in your life. All do not have to have a serious nature. Men are most surprised by humorous gifts. Why not send him a pantygram! He’ll laugh when he opens the gift and finds a pair of panties that are obviously not meant for him to wear. Give it to him in the morning before work so that he’ll be distracted by what is to come later on that evening.
What activities does your husband enjoy? It may be golf, basketball, , reading, or one of a hundred other things. Don’t be afraid to get him the latest book by his favorite author or a new set of fishing lures. Boxes of chocolate and roses are what women would like to get, not their husbands. Sure, it is a nice thought, but a pair of tickets to the basketball game or a weekend trip to his favorite golf course would really show him that you put some thought into his gift.
Gifts don’t have to be expensive to show that you care. If your husband is the king of remote controls, then a remote control caddy would be right up his alley. Some caddies have extra pockets for and other husband type things. With this gift, he’ll never have to look for another lost remote control again.
Husband and wives are so busy sometimes that they miss out on time spent together. Sometimes, the most precious gift you can give is not something that you can buy. Make up your own coupon book for your husband this Valentine’s Day.
Use a theme for the coupon book such as time, romance or sports. A suggestion for a coupon would be something like, “This coupon good for three hours of free time on Saturday”. Well, Saturdays are supposed to be relaxing days but we often send the hubby out to fix everything that has been broken all year on Saturdays. These coupons give him what he most wants - time alone.
Let him know all day long how much you care with heart messages. Heart messages are written on pink, red, or white paper hearts and left in places where he is sure to find them. Stuff one in the pocket of the jacket he will wear that day. Slip one in his shoe or his briefcase or his lunch bag. The messages express something about him that you love and appreciate.
Valentine’s Day gifts are a way of expressing love for your husbands. This doesn’t mean that we don’t show love throughout the year, but one day has been set aside to go all out with appreciation. Think of something that he wants and present it to him in the most creative way that you can.
