1. Buy or make your husband a trophy and engrave it with the
words, “The Best Husband in the World”. (I found a cheap trophy at
a party supplies store – the kids loved presenting it to daddy).
2. Listen with your husband to “your song”. Invite him to slow
dance along.
3. Plan an all red dinner for the family – spaghetti, strawberries,
berry yogurt, fruit punch and red balloons on all the chairs – and
don't forget a red candle in the center of your table!
4. Write with sidewalk chalk a love message for your husband on
the driveway – for all to see!
5. Give your husband a massage as he watches TV. Make sure he
gets the remote.
6. Write a poem – even if you can't write – it can be goofy. Include it
in references to your favorite movies, restaurants, places to go and
memories. He will enjoy the trip down memory lane and the laugh!
7. Recreate your first date together. Go to the same place and do the
same thing together and stroll down memory lane as you remember
how nervous you were!
8. Blow up balloons and put a loving message in each one. Fill your
bedroom with balloons as a surprise.
9. Take a roll of receipt tape and write a long message with the
things you admire and respect about your husband – then roll it up
and put it in a bottle for your husband to open and read. (I made
many of these for my husband in college when we were dating long
distance. I mailed them in packages.)

10. Try a new sport or activity together...something neither one of
you has done before.
11. Raise your glass at dinner, and offer up a toast to the one you
love. List the qualities you admire in your husband for your
children to hear.
12. Carve your initials in a tree (in your own yard).
13. Read your evening devotions together.
14. Write him a list of ten reasons why you love him and admire him
and read them out loud to him.
15. Let your husband hear you pray out loud for him. If you don't
pray together normally, then slip it in a meal time prayer.
16. Kiss him like you mean it!
