The Present Chris Never Expected

As you guys know, Chris’ birthday was Monday.  Abbie and I brainstormed (well, Mommy did) and got him a few things he wanted…and one thing he didn’t expect.

Datevitation helped me out with a custom coupon book for Chris’ birthday, and I filled it with all kinds of fun things.  They have TONS (as in over 500) of date ideas…everything from tame to a little risque.  Of course, I kept it PG!

I love that they let add a custom message at the beginning – they also let you customize the dates!

I suppose I should’ve been a bit more specific on this one and said “within reason.”  I don’t do scary movies!

Needless to say, Chris cashed this one in right away as an extra birthday gift to himself…so Mama did the dishes that night!  (I really thought he’d save it for a day when there were more dishes!)

I have a feeling this one will be getting me in trouble.

They’ve also added an awesome new feature that allows you to add your own faces to the book…I think this’ll come in handy in the future!  Abbie may dive in and make one for her grandparents in the future – but here’s an idea of how they look!

It really was a fun gift, and I LOVED the customization options!  A little more about Datevitation:

  • Datevitation.com is the web’s first online platform to create a custom love coupon book. Unlike the pre-packaged love coupon books on the market, you pick the dates and can customize the text!  Once you are done customizing the text in your book, Datevitation will prints it and ships it to you.
  • Their library contains over 500 date ideas ranging from skydiving to stargazing to steamy adult-only activities. They also have over 100 book cover options to suit any occasion.
  • In addition to being the perfect romantic gift for your sweetie, Datevitation now has “boy” and “girl” characters with over 200 new activity illustrations specifically for kids and parents.  There’s also a feature that allows you to add your own faces to the illustrations!
  • Datevitation is a family business run by the husband-wife team of Alex and Olga Karpman – and you know how I love small businesses!
