Cheese cake factory (love me some of that) after a long week at work it was even better. Got the wife a nice home defense item, to add a little persuasion to anybody that is not supposed to be in the house ;)

Well since she bought me a Hero 3 Black Gopro camera for my Birthday/Valentines day gift I thought it might be a good idea to get a little something for her.

Got her a cookie cake and took her to her favorite mexican resturant. Picked up a cedar chest for her too.

NICE!!!!! 

I think I want to upgrade.  I have the original GoPro and I just got the wifi back pack so I can run if from a remote or the iPhone app and now have found out that the iPhone app only works with the GoPro Hero2 and up...not the original.

Grilled NY strips on the Big Green Egg and had lobster mac & cheese (bought not made) and fresh green beans with sautéed mushrooms and a nice glass of red wine…  Couple of small gifts…  Kept it pretty simple…  Queue kids running around in the background to bring us back to reality…

My wife is about to pop (4th baby) so it was an easy day. Bought some chocolate and card with a balloon. She is so wonderfully simple and I am blessed to have a woman who does not need alot of "maintenance"

Nope. I use to make it a point to buy flowers and gifts and dates at random. Slacked off a bit, but got back on it after we got back together. She has always said buying things twice the price on a day your expected to do so has no meaning. Its the random gifts that really matter to her.

Very true. I got her the cedar chest last weekend. She was saying how much she really liked it, So I said "Happy Valentines Day" and bought it on the spot, after I haggled on the price with the owner 1st.   </LMAO/>

My wife took me there for my birthday last year...  You're right awesome food...  On Sundays Lobster bar is closed but Chops still serves their menu...  BTW thanks for taking care of the last few things on the Jeep today...  I was on the phone when they got done with it so I just hoped in and took off...  I appreciate it Danny!

Been going to Chops for over 15 years... it is fab.

Try McKendricks at Perimeter.  Closer, and I think some items are better, like the hand rubbed aged ribeye.  Had one last week and a taste of the Lobster Mac.  Started with a Caprese that was over the top.  Pricey but don't go there if it's an issue.  Wife had Lobster and Shrimp.  We mixed it up for the ultimate.

Took all my girls out to dinner for V. They wanted Mexican.  Cabo's was delicious.  Lalancha.

I also practice the "Flowers and Gifts ONLY at unexpected moments" method, and I always present a hand written well thought out card on the Bday, Anniversary, and Christmas.  Dinner out is ALWAYS a winner.  Gifts that show you were listening are the all time winner.
