(Saw them on the Food Network once and tried them last year for his birthday. It was instant love. LOL) Valentine's Day is overrated and commercialized *but* it's the 9th anniversary of our very first date, so it's kind of special to us for that reason. What's everyone else doing?

My female friend and I are wearing matching polka-dotted dresses with red sashes, and we're trying to convince the guy to do the same but he's not falling for it. And happy date-anniversary!

Originally Posted By LVBelle Nothing tomorrow. I get home from work at 3:00 and Chris goes to work at 4:30 which doesn't leave much time. I also have had no time to go shopping so I don't have a present or card or anything. If I had more energy, I'd at least make a card tonight but I'm just too tired. I think we're going to do something this weekend instead.

So we are all getting dressed up for dinner and then of to the Arena to see the new show. It is based on Disneyland rides so I think it will be great.

Originally Posted By Tiggirl Mark and I celebrated yesterday since me MAY have to work today.

And that was totally fine with both of us... its just special to get to spend the day together since we so rarely have days off together. We went to Disneyland for several hours and then had dinenr at El Torito. Mmmmm! It was a very enjoyable day spent with the person I love. ~Beth
Originally Posted By RoadTrip I arranged for flowers to be delivered to my daughter and roses delivered to my wife. Today I find out my wife will be out of her office all day at meetings.

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 They'll love them when they see them RT Today, I am staying home from the office! I gave myself the day off. I plan to do some things around the house that I've been putting off, hopefully some scrapbooking and then making a cake and dinner for DH and I. I'll call my mom (we visited yesterday) and talk to all of the kids at various times (they all got their gifts when we saw them last week.) I'm looking forward to an uneventful day I'm surprisingly not missing all the valentines, room parties and games, cupcakes and punch that I spent years of my life doing. I'll enjoy watching the neighbor kids come home with their bags of valentines and their mom's rushing down the street at 2pm to get the cupcakes there in time though. Sometimes memories are sweeter than participation
Originally Posted By LuLu I planned to have dinner with DD as long as nothing came up with her friends, which was fine with me! But now she's sick, so on to the backup plan, I just make myself a nice dinner (and figure out what she can/wants to eat). I bought flowers for myself and a little present and card for DD. I decided that I like Vday regardless of having an SO!
Originally Posted By LuLu Oh yeah, I sent my Mom a card which she appreciated, and she sent Elise and I very sweet ones too! I'll probably all her again today too. Maybe even call my sister!
