While this is the first day of our prep, if you have friends who want to join in, let them know that they can jump in any time. You don’t need to have The Husband Project book in order to participate, but you definitely will get more out of this(and be able to plan better) if you read along. You can order it on Amazon or for a special price on my website.
First off, here are our pack winners. (Be sure to email my assistant, Kimberly at Kimber@kathilipp.com and let her know you are a winner.)
Don’t worry if you didn’t win- we are having tons of giveaways this month. Check back everyday, comment, and then check to see if you are a winner.

Glossary of Terms
for The Husband Project
Project
A provided activity by which you’ll bless your guy, making him feel special, loved, appreciated, adored, admired, honored or pampered…and if he’s really lucky, all of the above! There are 21 Projects in all.
Project Manager
Head cheerleader for the “make my guy feel great” campaign…that would be you! You’re already queen of the house, the proverbial belle of the ball, and now, since you’re the one taking charge on each and every Project, you’re the Project Manager.
Accountability Partner
Someone who helps keep your feet to the fire, The Husband Project fire, that is. Accountability Partners (one of them is me, Kathi!) join you in this project to collectively discuss your plans and goals, provide enthusiasm, inspiration, and maybe a little laughter along the way.
Bonus Projects
Sex. Yep, that’s what the Bonus Projects are all about. Sex, plain and simple…you’ll be finding ways to physically bless your man at least once a week for each of the three weeks. No doubt, these projects will be some of your guy’s favorites, and hopefully some of yours as well.
Lingerie
An essential part of any Project Manager’s tool kit. In the chapter, The Real Woman’s Guide to Lingerie Shopping, we give you all the good stuff you need to know to make a splash with a little sex appeal and a lot of self-confidence.
Guy Food
Recipes we’ve provided so you can bless you guy, regardless of your culinary skills. Think comfort food. Think rich, yummy, oooey-gooey, creamy, cheesy and generally, doctor-restricted. You won’t find these dishes on the low-fat, low-carb menus, but you will find them at the top of your husband’s favorite foods list.
Guy Movies
Manly movie fare recommended by guys I actually know. Movie categories include sports, action, comedy, and, of course, gratuitous violence. Meet your man’s need for speed, greed and the occasional backhanded deed. As a courtesy, there’s a short of list of movies-for-two for you both to enjoy together.
Getting Creative
Unique, fresh and specific ideas…just what you need to help you complete each Project. Sometimes the hardest part in running the race is getting off the starting block. To help you over this potential hurdle each Project chapter features a Getting Creative section to get you motivated and mobilized to bless your man!
Just watched Fireproof at church tonight – put me in the right mood for this challenge! 🙂
I’m excited, I think I found a F2F buddy to do this with!
I am so excited to do this. My husband has been really stressed lately. I think getting back to basic of each other will help him.
SOO EXCITED! Sent my husband a text message the other day saying I was thinking of him. He called and wondered why I was so lovey dovey and I told him I knew he was facing a lot of changes at work that day and I was hoping he had a good day. He really appreciated it and made me think…I need to do this more often. Thanks, Kathi!!
THANKS ANN!
Our MOPS group heard about this at convention LAST year and we were going to do it, but then it never happened. 🙁 I’m glad I can try it with my online buddies!!!
made sure I was subscribed
OK, I’ve got some plans in the making… 🙂
Going right now to get more prep stuff. I pray I am good with this and honor HIM and him in it all 😀
Printing the calendar now!
OK – I’ve read the blog for today and think I’m ready, but hubby is out of town for today?!
For Sabrina,
Go above in Kathi’s What to do Today section. Click on Calendar. It will take you to the leadership page on the left hand side of the page are different topics. click on the one that says blank calendar. The calendar makes it easy to see all your activities that you have planned without posting them to the family calendar which might tip off the hubby.
For Kathi,
So looking forward to doing this. Have my calendar and armed with infor thanks to you. 🙂
HELP! I am lost! Can’t find the calendar and I want to print it up!
I am going to make a calendar for all 21 days and start filling it in for each day. I will have the copy with me so that I can glance at it when I am out and about to see if I need to get anything I might have missed or decided to add something fabulous that I found to purchase!
Can’t wait to start on Monday. I’ll be printing off the calender today as an extra reminder 🙂 thanks.
Oh, almost forgot! I now have a book that I can give to a friend! Thank you Kathy for your drawings!!
Praying 1st off about prepping. Then today contacting my peeps of accountability and tomorrow buying ink to do my printing.
Okay, got the calendar printed, some extra projects for anyone in my life. Going to get the book out again and read thu the projects, map out the calendar and find a folder to hid it all in.
Honestly feeling a little nervous and apprehensive as this gets closer. I pray this will bless my husband and our marriage and that I can stick to it!
I’ll be crying because I can’t remember who I loaned my book to, printing the calendar, and watching for an update religiously 🙂
I’ll be promoting the project to my online friends and planning the first week’s projects.
I’m praying as my prep. 🙂
I printed the calendar and I’m going to look through the book to prep. Looking forward to starting.
I think I am prepped and ready!
I heard about the husband project from a friend that saw you at MOPS. Sounds awesome!! Hope to win a free book. 🙂
