Happy Leap Day!

Here is some fun information, in Ireland, it is a tradition that on Leap Day woman are able to propose marriage to their favorite handsome gentleman! AND if the man denies the proposal, he has to give the woman some sort of compensation. This can be anything from a kiss, money, or a new pair of gloves (lucky lady!!). However in Greece it is considered unlucky to be married in a Leap Year and many couples will plan their weddings around a Leap Year. I knew about the marriage proposals in Ireland (mainly due to the movie Leap Year, which i LOVED!!) but not about Greece. OOOPs, good thing I am not Greek ;).

Just a little something extra! If you are waiting on the special someone to pop a certian question, maybe you could do it instead!

Enjoy the rest of your extra day!
