Many restaurants and other businesses get really creative offering dining and date night ideas for the occasion, often preparing special meals and offering great special packages. Here is a list of some of those creative packages for your Valentine's Day. I've taken the guess work out of compiling the list, so all you need to do is decide which one to do.

While you are at the Crossing of the Dan, find Halifax County's LOVE sign at its temporary location between the Prizery and the Dan River.

This is my friend Karen with the LOVE sign. She sent a message last week with the sign and a caption that read, "I finally found LOVE!" Too cute, Karen. I love it!
There is so much to do this coming weekend, and these are just a few of the ideas. If you have ideas or know of an event, dinner, or something fun to do that I haven't thought of, please let me know so that I can help get the word out. Let's support our local businesses and help keep each other in the know. Whether you have a romantic weekend planned, are spending time with your friends, are staying in by yourself, or hanging out with the kids, I wish you a weekend that's super sweet. I hope you have all the indulgence, pampering, food, fun, rest, relaxation, or adventure that your heart desires.
xoxo, Erin
