Can you believe that Christmas is already right around the corner? It feels like it was just yesterday that I was making my New Year Resolutions and now we’re making Christmas lists. It never fails that every year my husband asks me what I want for Christmas. Outside of the fact that I think he should know what I want (they are mind readers, right?) what I want, money can’t buy. In this past year, we’ve completed 1 year of marriage, made some drastic lifestyle changes, and have two incredibly busy children that require lots of energy and patience. With all this happening in our lives, sometimes it’s hard for us to connect so all I want for Christmas is him.

Marriage can equal complacency in the intimacy department. We forget that the dating phase is never supposed to stop and that we should always be looking for ways to be creative in connecting with our spouses. Intimacy is no different. For Christmas this year the hubs and I decided we’ll be counting down with “12 Days of Christmas” with the girls but I’ll be doing my own “12 Days of Pass-mas” (passion + Christmas–get it? ha!) with him!

So what does that mean, right? Well, after a recent shopping trip to one of my favorite places in the world, Walmart, with a handy dandy $2 off coupon for K-Y® Yours+Mine® Couples Lubricants®, I was inspired to treat my man to something special on the 12 nights leading up to Christmas:

On the first day of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

A love note. This is a throwback to how we used to communicate when we worked together.

On the second day of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

Unlimited use of the remote. Yes, I said it! Where’s the passion in that ,right? My husband is the sweetest thing in the world. He always lets me control what we watch so why not let him choose?

On the third day of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

An old school board game with a passionate twist.

On the fourth day of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

Something new. As in new recipe using some delicious, aphrodisiac ingredients. Who doesn’t like great food that makes them feel like getting close with their love? My favorites are some cayenne peppers, bananas, salmon, and of course chocolate. I’m thinking a new spicy salmon with a chocolate bananas foster for dessert.

On the fifth day of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

A full body massage. He works hard and I appreciate him. What better way to get close than with a nice rub down?

On the sixth day of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

A game of one-on-one basketball–clothing optional! We’re both ex-basketball players who love a good workout.

On the seventh & eighth days of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

A weekend getaway in a hotel room sans children. With the girls constantly in our space it can be hard to connect and just have some light-hearted flirting without having to spell everything out in pig-latin.

On the ninth day of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

A night at the museum. We both have a mutual love of the arts and at our local museum they have an adult evening featuring wine and exhibits.

On the tenth day of Pass-mas my true love gave to me…

An evening to just reconnect… talking about goals, desires, needs, and delivering.

On the eleventh day of Pass-mass my true love gave to me…

Breakfast in bed. Who wouldn’t enjoy a mimosa after an evening of intimacy?

On the twelfth day of Pass-mass my true love gave to me…

A homemade game that involved a necktie, a scarf, whipped cream and chocolate syrup–you do the math.

Not only do I love my husband, but I genuinely like him and find him so incredibly attractive. What better gift for Christmas than rekindling the intimacy with my soul-mate than with the help of K-Y® Yours+Mine® Couples Lubricants®?
