An Album For My Valentine – How’d it go?

As some of you may recall, my wife and I decided to break tradition and try a new idea for Valentine’s Day this year. Giving each other an album. There were some minor rules involved… and plenty of questions as to whether it would be a better or worse idea than the traditional gift-giving approach.

The verdict is in now and the idea was a great success! I can’t recall a time when both of us were A) so excited about the gift we had chosen for the other and; B) so happy with the gift we got.

If you love music, this idea comes highly recommended. Here’s what we got each other:

From her to him: Medeski Martin & Wood – Shack Man

From him to her: The Civil Wars – Barton Hollow
