We do. We celebrated early this year because tomorrow is too busy for us but generally we celebrate on Valentine's Day itself.

Nah. I show him I love him every day Screw commercialized holidays. Though 50% off candy rocks! This year one of my friends mentioned something about wanting a GIANT peanut butter cup though so I'm going to get her a giant Reese's heart, a card, and a gift card for cold stone and mail it to her as a surprise for being such an amazing mom. She's been alone since the beginning of her pregnancy and never had even a 2 hour break unless she's at work. So I want to do something to show her her hard work is noticed by more than just her little girl.

I should have clicked other, but I clicked yes.
We do, kind of. We countdown starting on Feb 1st. The kids and I read a love-based scripture each night. How God loved us, how we should love others, etc. And then we show others we love them by doing little things for them (wrote Grandma a letter, made a friend dinner, etc.) And then this morning, we keep it simple. I made them a heart shaped breakfast, and I let them make daddy a card, but that's pretty much it. We don't do extravagant gifts of anything.

I use it as an excuse to give M his birthday present 2 weeks early.
His birthday is the 27th and I'm horrible with waiting to give gifts.

Yes we do. We go to dollar store and then split up picking out a gift that reminds us of each other. Last year he gave me a mini dance glob that spins because I use to have one that broke years ago. I gave him a McDomdelds cup (I had saved one lol) with plastic flies in it. Our first date face to face, we met online, was at McDonnell and the flies kept buzzing us. We are both kind of romantic, emotional people.

No, not really. I usually just take advantage of it to pig out on sweets, but otherwise it's just another day to us.

Eh, yes and no.
DD was excited, so she got Valentines ("Valentimes" haha) for all the kids in her class-- but basically it's just a day for giving candy. She got some chocolate hearts from me.
BF and I are weird about holidays. We just kind of give gifts when we feel like it. Some holidays we do gifts, some we don't, and it just kind of depends when we have an idea or some extra cash to spend on the other than "OMIGAH, holiday, must break our bank to give each other gifts...."

Our wedding anniversary is the 7th, so we celebrate that. For Valentines day we just get the girls a little something.

I do in the sense that I make or purchase goodies for my son's class/party. I buy a card for my husband, but I don't do gifts anymore. He always gets me a card and flowers.
I'll cook a nice dinner for us & after my son is in bed we have our alone time.
I have never been a fan of Valentine's Day, except when I was a kid.
I don't need a Hallmark holiday to know that I'm loved. *shrugs*
