Celebrating Galentine’s Day!

This post has been sponsored by American Greetings. All thoughts and opinions are my
own.

There’s Gnome One Else Like You. Galentine’s (and Valentine’s, for that matter) is in my mind & on my heart. This year, by the time Galentine’s Day rolls around, I’ll have another mini gal in my life! Just thinking about that melts my heart to pieces. I’ve always been a fan of pink and the more “girly” things in life. Now that I have two daughters, we’re just diving into it—and I’m loving it!

With our recent move, Safeway became the closest grocery store to our home and I find myself there all the time. On this last run while picking up some ingredients for dinner, I noticed the new season on display – Valentine’s! As a big fan of ALL the holidays (you know me, any excuse to gather with friends & family is a winner in my book!), I picked up some fun American Greetings cards to give to my besties! AND if you use the Safeway app, you can save $5 when you buy $10 worth of American Greetings cards!

I’m so glad that Galentine’s day was invented several years ago! I’ve always celebrated the idea of it on Valentine’s day, but so many people boycott that holiday or feel like it is a “lovers” only holiday—and I never felt like that. But, it now has a name with a definition: ladies celebrating ladies! So, even if you have Valentine haters in your life—you can still love on them!!

I got the dog one for my Hilde girl. She cannot read, but she sure loves to see a dog! She barks at every one we see, whether on a walk, in a book, or on the tv. It’s the most adorable thing! And it’s something that I want to remember because so soon, she will grow out of this stage.

While this mama is clearly a fan of celebrating her mini gals, she also loves to love on her BFFS! I picked up a couple cards to write notes to my best friends and send them with a little gift to brighten their day! Adding gift cards or sending with flowers to their office is a fun way to add a little more love. But, the words are also important—a heartfelt card always makes my day!

So, download the app and head to Safeway because you don’t need just one Valentine’s card this year—you need a stack. Those best friends, siblings, parents, and kiddos can be showered in love, too!
