Happy Valentine's Day!

Are you guys celebrating love today? It's easy to get caught up in the commercial side of Valentine's Day, but it's also a fun time to share hugs and kisses with those you really care about.


Growing up, I always loved how my mom would write cards and get chocolates for me, my twin sister, and my brother. We'd come down for breakfast and they'd be set up on the kitchen table, just waiting to be opened. Last year she even sent me fresh-baked cupcakes! It was such a fun surprise getting them in the mail.


Do you guys have any special V-Day traditions? 


Here are some other fun ideas for Valentine's that I've seen around the web:


Mindy and Daniel Coleman go to the same Starbucks every Valentine's, and take a picture to remember it by.


Writing teeny tiny love notes and hiding them around the house could be great fun.

Sending a beautiful bouquet of flowers is always a classy move, whether it's for your love or even a parent or grandparent. Wouldn't it be cool to go with something way different from a dozen red roses?

It would be fun to have a secret garden date on Valentine's too :)


And of course, everybody (single, dating or married) should do a yoga class -- that's the best way to show yourself some love!

However you are (or aren't) celebrating today, I hope you have lots of fun! XO
