What are you doing for Valentine's Day? About This Page:

[stretch2864]

DBF asked me last night what I wanted to do for Valentine's Day. I don't think we have ever really done anything, so it surprised me. I have plans with my mom during the day, but I think we might go to a movie which is something we rarely do since I never have much free time.

So how are you celebrating Valentine's Day?

[simbarel]

I will be working. For the past 2 years DS and I sent out Valentines and I'd like to keep up the tradition...I better get crackin'!

Watching the Daytona 500!!!!! Oh and calling my DAD in Arizona...it's his 70th birthday on Valentine's day.

We're celebrating the night before by having 2 other couples over for dinner. We're having an Italian dinner with appetizers, Italian salad, crusty bread with EVOO & balsamic vinegar dipping sauce, grilled fillets marinated in red wine and garlic, side of ziti with a bechamel sauce, followed by chocolate covered strawberries and vanilla bean ice cream. We are really looking forward to it.

I made mine last night, but haven't mailed them yet. I'm not sure why I feel the need to make Valentine's every year, especially since I have so many other things I could be doing, but I do it anyway!

Dawn, I hope your dad has a magical 70th Birthday!

Everyone's Valentine's Day Plans sound like great fun. I hope you all enjoy your Valentine's Day!

We're staying in and watching he NFL Follies Marathon, Casablanca, Lady and the Tramp, and any other romantic movie we already own. I will either make Speghetti with Chicken Meatballs or Chicken Stuffed Shells with a Caesar Salad, Garlic Bread, and Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Cupcakes or Red Velvet Cheesecake Cupcakes for Dessert and maybe make some Chocolate Covered Strawberries(and leave some plain for Skyler) and a box of Fannie May's Chocolate Meltaways(my favorite candy company from Chicago which one of our local grocery stores carries here by us).

I was going to also take Skyler out on a Mommy/Son Valentine's Day Date for Lunch somewhere(and let Erick have a little peace and quiet or video game time without us interfering).

[BeckiO5]

Skyler & I also may take a trip to Build a Bear for a new furry friend for him since he has a Gift card from Santa and a coupon to use too.

We also need to get cracking on sending out Valentines to family and picking up a couple boxes of chocolate for his grandparents near us as well as his 2 Aunts and Uncle and Uncle to be from him.

Dh and I will be going to a Valentine Banquet at our church on Friday night.

As far as Sunday, the actual day, dh will be working. Myself and the kids will go to church. I am getting them some valentines to pass out to their sunday school classes.

We're going to buy in some nice food - Marks and Spencer do a meal for £10, including a bottle of wine and we'll have that. We did that last year and it was really nice.

[Teresa]

Nothing. Lauren has a sleep-over to go to and DH has to work. We're not big V-Day people, although we do send flowers to our DDs who are grown up and away from the house and give small gifts to the ones at home.

[Kynna]

We have our biggest party of the year for Valentines. We have 58 people coming this year. We have a Pasta dinner and everyone brings one element, cheese bread sauce ect. Then we have games and a Valentine exchange for the kids and a chocolate fountain for dessert. We buy a bunch of balloons from the party store and this place looks like an 80's prom. Gimme a holiday and I'll have a party!

[Griffin]

We don't do anything. Just get some candy and make cards for each other and our DS.

[Colexis Mom]

Valentine's Day is DS's birthday! We celebrate him that day! He is having his birthday party at the laser tag place (about 10 kids). DD has a basketball game that morning as well!

[lukeandbrookesmom]

We'll got out to dinner as a family.

Nothing special this year
