Photos of cute bunnies: Our readers hop to it

TODAY host Willie Geist and his wife, Christina, have been together since middle school, yet the couple still make time for romance by going on dates several times a week.

“Life gets so chaotic. I could be on my BlackBerry around the clock,” Willie told USA Weekend in an article celebrating Valentine’s Day.

One special date night coming up will be Christina’s Feb. 18 birthday. Both agreed it’s a mixed blessing to have it so close to Valentine’s Day.

“We don’t ignore it,” Christina said of the holiday, “but we really try to make each other happy every day.”

Willie said they usually will go to dinner, but he acknowledged he often gets away with “going extra-big on her birthday.”

“The other thing is, all the Valentine’s Day roses are on deep discount on her birthday, so I can get her, like, a hundred roses,” he said.

The Geists have been inseparable since middle school, when Willie spotted the 11-year-old former Christina Sharkey in Mr. Kaplan’s sixth-grade homeroom.

“She was noteworthy for a sixth-grade boy. I kept an eye on her,” he told USA Weekend.

But they didn’t date until ninth grade. The two eventually went to college together at Vanderbilt and got married in 2003. The couple now have two children, Lucie, 5, and George, 3.

Their admiration for each other remains strong. Christina noted that her husband's growing celebrity was never something he sought. 

"People are drawn to him, and it has always been that way," she said. "Of course, I'm very proud of him, but it's no surprise to me that he's in the job he's in."

Willie said the two are each other's biggest supporters. 

"It's fun to know the person in the sixth-grade homeroom and see her now being such a great mom to our two kids. It's a journey that not a lot of people have together, and it's very special," he said. 

Both feel blessed to live in New York, not far from where they grow up, and close to both sets of parents. They feel fortunate that their children have strong ties to their grandparents.

The family also remain close to friends from their childhood. Christina points out to the magazine that each of her three siblings married a high school classmate.

“I don’t know what was in the water,” she joked.

Al and Willie took their relationship to a new level on Thursday.

Valentine's Day is fast approaching, and Chassie Post from Gilt stopped by to show Willie a number of gifts for sweethearts. Like Kisstixx, a his 'n' hers lip balm that creates a flavor combination when you make out with your sweetheart. Or, as the case may be, your dashing co-anchor.

To help test the efficacy of the lip balm's "Peaches and Cream" flavor, Al gamely stepped up to the plate and planted one on Willie. Meanwhile, Natalie urged the producers to go to commercial.

"Can we agree this is not a Bar Refaeli situation?" Willie said, referring to the Israeli supermodel who makes out with nerdy Jesse Heiman in a now infamous Super Bowl commercial for Go Daddy.

Off-camera, TODAY.com caught up with Al for some post-smooch commentary. "It was like nothing I've ever felt before... and hopefully will never again," Al said. "Our wives collectively think we have some 'splainin to do."

"Neither peaches nor cream ever will taste the same again," Willie told us. "I got a great phone call from my wife after the show. Here's a partial transcript: Me: 'Hey.' Her: 'Did you make out with Al on the show this morning?' Me: 'Yeah, kind of.' Her: 'Oh, ok.'"

Later on the air, when a bouquet of flowers arrived for Natalie, Al intercepted them and gallantly handed him to Willie, who affectionately called him "Peaches."
