CREATING VALENTINE'S ROMANCE

Date nights are often the farthest thing from your mind when you become a parent and creating romantic moments can be a challenge. Tuesday is Valentine's Day and there is still plenty of time to plan some sweetheart fun and make your partner feel special.

Wives, you might want to consider arranging a babysitter and planning an afternoon that your husband would enjoy. Perhaps a little golf, a morning hike, an afternoon picnic or a walk on the beach. Try something new as a couple. Take a Valentine's themed Sushi Making Class!

Husbands, if you want to win your wife over for Valentine's Day, consider setting her up with an afternoon of spa treatments so she comes home feeling rested for a special dinner out. Check out this luxurious deal from Avia Spa. Head out to the Bacara Resort for a romantic meal and walk on the beach. Up the romance factor by winning the BACARA CONTEST!

VALENTINE'S WITH KIDS

Cards for the class... Do we do the cards with candy? with tattoos? with stickers? Do we do animal cards? princess cards? sports cards? OR do we make them from scratch?

Anyone that has grade-school kids knows that Valentine's Day also means making or buying cards for every child in the class. You may decide it is easier to go buy the cards yourself or maybe you are brave enough to take your child and hope they do not take hours deciding on one of the hundreds of choices in the store.

Bake these delicious Valentine Sugar Cookies for the class and your family topped with red hots.

Create a Family Valentine Night... Enjoy ice cream cakes or cupcakes from COLD STONE, heart-shaped pizza for the kids from RUSTY'S or VALENTINO'S, and sweets from KINGSTON CANDY CO.

[BECCA] Love Lessons... After five sweet years of marriage, we were expecting a baby. About a second after we started talking about expanding our family, we were pregnant, so there had been very little time to discuss the hypothetical changes and only time to see the reality of spending hours moaning on the bathroom floor. There was an immediate 180 degree change from baby-making to baby-growing, and it marked an incredible change in our marriage. Nine months later, our bouncing baby boy joined the family, and once again, our marriage changed. Here are a few of the love lessons we've learned over the years...   CONTINUE >
