So here's the deal. Every holiday Geoff out-does himself (and me, dangit!) and gets me way better gifts than I get him. He starts shopping months before the actual holiday, writes down things throughout the year I had mentioned I wanted, switches bank account and email passwords, haves the gifts mailed to his parents home, etc. He's a gift-giving ninja! Me on the other hand, am the worst. This anniversary however, I thought I'd step up my game and surprise him with AppleTV I noticed him eyeing down the night before. (Yes, I shopped the day of, apparently I'm a guy.) I was so excited to give the better gift and finally win, but I didn't win in my opinion, I think we tied. Probably because I'm still not even sure what AppleTV is anyways. I spent 5 minutes with some hip guy in a teal shirt and black rimmed glasses listening to "all it does". Still, not so sure.
Annnnnnyways, I made decoy coupons and gave him those first. Two "Free Hug" bucks and even one "Public Hug" buck. I was pretty bummed when I saw how stoked he was on those. THAT is how much credit he gives me?! Unbelievable. I must be even worse than I thought I was.
Next year I'll get em'.

i think it's safe to say you guys make me happier than anyone and anything, EVER. seriously.
that is by far the prettiest perfume bottle i have ever seen. to be honest i havent seen many, but that one is gorgeous. good job on the apple tv!
public hug coupon! HAHA! I need one of those from my man. He always pats me on the bag if i hug him or kiss him in public. We call it the Public Pat. On our wedding, after our You May Kiss The Bride kiss...he patted me on the back because all those people were watching.
Way to go on the Apple TV...i'm sure he'll love it.
Oh, you two always make me smile!!!

Good work Stacie, I'm really impressed.
Stacie Stacie Stacie.... You KNOW Kevin reads your blog. You and Jenna are making me look so bad! Good tip though. I am sure I could buy Kev just about anything from there and he would love me forever! PS I creepily spray myself with that perfume every time I go to the mall. It's so lovely.
I'm not sure how well you would actually know me but I'm related to Geoffrey! My dad and Franklin are cousins! I found your photoblog while blog stalking ha ha Anyway I just wanted to say Hi and let you know I LOVE your photography! I hope you don't mind that I add it to my "fun sites" blog roll! Feel free to stop by our blog anytime! Small world!!
Stumbled on your blog via Arizona Lewis via Team Boo via....I have no idea how I landed here actually. I have a dream our daughters will be friends. It's rare I like other people's kids and Ivy seems like a cool chick. I think Liberty would like her:) I don't blog for the masses but here is our fam blog: http://beckyandcameron.blogspot.com/
