So for Valentine’s Day I had this awesome idea. Partly inspired by random quote generators and partly inspired by a gift Renee gave to Russell. I wanted to build a website for Mike, so that everytime the site refreshes, Mike would see another reason why I love him. I know sappy right? But if you can’t be sappy for Vday – then what’s the point?
After creating a background picture for it and coming up with the initial 161 reasons, I went to create the site. After finishing I showed it to Renee and Jen (Mike’s sister). Renee had helped me edit all the reasons for typos – yeah I made alot of those. And I wanted both of their opinions before saying I was officially done.
Both Jen and Renee loved it, so I figured I’d hit the nail on the head. Renee said “What i will be most impressed by is if you actually wait a MONTH before you show it to him.” Well she knows me so well – so this is the conversation (Yahoo) between Mike and me…
Kandra: your vday present is done
Kandra: now to figure out if I give it to you now or wait a month
Mike: lol
Mike: how bout now
Kandra: really?
Kandra: are you sure you want it now?
Mike: yeah
Kandra: www.kandralovesmichael.com
Mike: I love it!!!!
Kandra: hehehe
Kandra: i’m so glad
Mike: That is so awesome
Kandra: renee helped me edit all my reasons
Kandra: i’ve got 161 right now
Mike: lol
Kandra: i had alot of typos
Kandra: she fixed them
Mike: 161 reasons
Kandra: yeah
Mike: wow
Mike: so cool
Mike: I love you baby
Kandra: i love you too
Kandra: well now you know you’re special
Mike: Thats so awesome
Kandra: cool idea huh
Mike: I love it
Mike: I think this is the best gift I have ever gotten next to my family
Kandra: awww
Kandra: yay
Mike: I love you
Kandra: i love you too
So Woohoooo! It was a success and I’m so glad he can now easily see why I love him so!
haha, so if you had to show him the site via yahoo messenger that means that he was still at work…did you even wait an HOUR?! Also, now that you ruined the surprise website, what will you do for him to give to him ON Valentine’s Day? You know you will still feel obligated to do something else…can you even top that idea?!? haha, I knew you wouldn’t last =)
…and I like how you posted the conversation so you could use the lame excuse of “he wanted it” but we all know you provoked him to say give it to him now by even telling him you were done =)
Have I mentioned that I still LOVE you too much, and we are TOO much alike!
LOL! I love you too and you know I couldn’t wait! DUH!
As for Vday – I won’t be able to top this ever, but I’m sure he’d love me to make him French Toast (and yes they will be shaped in a heart
)
