Hey ya'll :)

My husband has been pretty down about being laid off, and I really want to do/give something to cheer him up.  We're trying to be frugal right now because of of the situation, so I need cheap romantic ideas :)  

Thank you in advance. :)

I'd pack a picnic and a blanket and hit a park or pond.

Make him take a nice hot bath or shower and have him come to bed and give him the best full body massage in the world..use a good smelling lotion

Kristina~

When I read your post the first thing that came to mind was a book that I have and have referred to on many occasions. It is called "400 More Creative Ways to Say I Love You" by Alice Chapin. One of my favorite ideas from the book  is to send a thank you card to my husbands mom on his birthday thanking her for having him. She not only loved it but when the news got back to my husband he teared up. I do not have the book posted but if you were interested let me know and I will. Good Luck!
