And Jon Pardi he’s learned a lot about the holiday from his wife Summer.  "Is that gifts are cool, diamonds, blah, blah, blah, but to take your time and clear your mind and write something about what she means to you on a card is probably the most least expensive and the biggest price you can give her is just to write and tell her how much you love her on a little card. That's what she taught me for Valentine's Day, so I just do that. It's way cheaper.”

Today is National Pizza Day!!!

Valentines Day has changed so much, especially if you’re married with kids…it used to be a nice dinner, a glass of wine, watch a movie but Thomas Rhett in HIS house says being “romantic” is very different. “Me being romantic is really just helping, if that makes any sense. Like, if something is out of place, put it up. If the kids need to go take a nap, I make lunches in the morning before the kids get up to go to school, and all that kind of stuff. And so, when I’m off the road, being super present with my kids has turned into the new romanticism.”
