Whether it be a traditional V-Day or a special Gal-entine's day, our ladies love the day of love. Here are some of our favorite Valentine's traditions and some traditions we look forward to.
Razonia:
I love flowers, I love chocolate, and I definitely LOVE red so it makes sense why Valentine’s Day is my second favorite holiday (behind Thanksgiving). To this date, my parents make sure I feel loved on Valentine’s Day and to appreciate this holiday as an all-encompassing day for people to express love to others, not just from a love interest. Growing up they would buy me fun gifts like Michael Jackson’s Thriller tape (yes, I said tape) and usually send me flowers every year. This is a tradition I have continued with my son. I encourage him to pick a “Valentine” every year…someone he can share some of his love with by giving them a gift or making them dinner (one year he made heart shaped pizzas with his Memaw), in addition to showering him with tons of love.

February is a big month for me: my birthday, V-Day, and my anniversary. It's a fantastic excuse to "go big or go home" for one big trip or a special night to celebrate because we have many reasons to! This year, we're thinking horseback rides in the canyon. Anyone have a rowboat we can borrow for a lake? Ha!
Audrey:
Favorite thing about Valentine’s is the excuse to eat pizza and chocolate. I’m usually a person that likes to stay in and not go out for VDAY. But it’s a perfect week-night excuse to hang in with girlfriends or my fiancé and watch a movie and spend time together.
Sara:
Wait…. it’s Valentines Day already? Someone tell time to slow down! This year I’m going to start traditions for myself. Anyone have some suggestions? Lol. Maybe a pedicure, some shopping and my favorite Chinese place for dinner.
Jenn:
My favorite thing about valentine’s day are all the spa deals! It’s the perfect day to really treat yourself to the well-deserved pampering we all need time to time. What a day to love yourself!

My favorite Valentines Day activity is waiting until Valentines Day is over so I can buy all the discounted dark chocolate the day after.
