Today isn't Valentine's Day but when you're married, Valentine's Day can be any day of the year, that you make special for your spouse!
We want to give you some gift ideas to think about and maybe you can purchase something on a day your spouse won't expect it! Those are the most special and memorable days anyways... when you buy something just because and there's no good reason except that you just really love them!

For the Guy in your life:
Is he a sports guy? Does he like a certain football team or maybe he is a basketball kind of guy. Maybe he's both! My husband is a big Oklahoma University fan, and he loves anything with their team logo on it. I have gifted him an Oklahoma flag to fly during football season and even a foldable camping style chair too! Of course, he has a little bit of everything now, from keychains to hats, and shirts to a pillowcase and more! If your spouse is a big fan, then you can't go wrong here! (Click the photos below to find your guy's favorite team(s)!)
Most guys are pretty rough on their wallets and need a new one every few years. This is a great gift to get for your guy and this exact one is customizable! He will think of you and your love for him every time he has to use his wallet! That is so sweet!
Does your spouse like music? These little earbuds are super cool! They twist into the shape of your ear and don't fall out even while you are doing a hard-core workout! This set comes with different ear cushion sizes for all kinds of ears! These earbuds also have different sound modes so you can choose to hear background noise or choose to drown out all the background noise and jam out to your favorite music!
Does your husband work in an office somewhere, have an at home office or work in the ministry? This is the perfect gift for him! I got this for my husband for Christmas this past year and he absolutely loves it! He has told me many times about how much he loves it! This is more of a thoughtful gift but hey, sometimes we don't know that we need something until someone buys it for us and then we don't know how we ever lived without it!
My husband has mentioned that he would really like one of these jackets, but we are on a tight budget right now trying to pay off debt, so he has to wait just a little longer. lol. We live in Colorado and this past winter has hit us pretty good... we have gotten a ton of snow this winter season. (2022-2023) We have had to shovel so much snow here at home and he even has to snow blow and shovel at work as well. This gift would be super helpful in the cold winter months. Maybe you could even purchase the matching gloves to go with it!
For the Gal in your life:
Okay, this first one is like one that was mentioned up above... It is more thoughtful but OH MAN! This was a super thoughtful gift, and it is AMAZING!!! I feel like everyone knows what a rice bag is but if you don't it is a little handmade, sewed up bag with rice in it... sometimes they come with some essential oils mixed in with the rice for some extra comfort. This gift is LEVEL UP. This is a little rechargeable device that you can wear like a belt. It has 3 levels of heat and 3 modes of a simple vibration. It is for those times of the month when you didn't conceive, and your body decides it will punish you for not getting pregnant. Seriously though, sometimes those cramps are no fun at all! This thing works great, and it has helped me so much! At first, I thought; "That's an awful gift to get me." but then I tried it and I am really glad Josh got it for me... So, guys, if you need a thoughtful gift to get your sweet gal, this one is a winner for sure!
Shoes... You could never go wrong with a pair of shoes! Just make sure they are the right size. All you've got to do is check her other shoes and see what size they are and use that as a guide. Always check the sizing chart too for extra guidance to make sure you don't need to size up or down for that particular type of shoe and base the shoe you pick on the type of style she likes... I never wear heels so my husband knows to never buy me heels.
If your gal likes to work out, get her a fitness watch! There are so many options to choose from. I started out with a fitbit and ended up with an apple watch. It's really your preference on which one you think she would like better! With the Fitbit, I had a really simple one but my apple watch can make phone calls, guide me on maps when I am driving, and it even has a walkie talkie feature that you can use instead of calling. It's a lot like playing Marco-Polo except with regular conversations. Here are few options for you to take a look at!
This next gift is such a sweet and romantic gift! I know your little gal will love it because it made me cry it was so sweet! My name isn't super common but nowadays there are so many different ways to spell someone's name and it is near impossible to find your name on one of those keychain racks in the gas station or at a souvenir store. When we went on our ten year anniversary trip to Branson, MO, we checked for my name and could not find it anywhere. So later on after we had been home for a couple of weeks, my husband pulled a package out of the mail and told me to open it, it was for me. What a surprise and I had no idea what it was... I opened the package and pulled out a key chain with my name inscribed on it and on the other side it read "My Love, My Life". (Swoon) It was the sweetest gift I have ever received and one that I will forever remember! And it wasn't on a special day but it sure did make that day super special!
I don't know why these tumblers are such a big deal and on the trend right now, but it seems like everybody has one and I'm pretty sure I would drink a lot more water if I had this to drink it out of. (hahaha) These are a pretty penny price, but I haven't heard any complaints as of yet and I know quite a few people who have one. They are supposed to keep cold drinks cold for 11 hours, Iced drinks iced for 2 days and keep hot drinks hot for 7 hours... That's pretty good for a tumbler in my opinion, if it is true... I guess you'll have to let your sweet gal test it out to see!
We hope these gift guides will help you share your love for each other and that you will make every day a special day in your marriage because your holy marriage is worth it!
XOXO
Josh & Shawna
