We Are Reading Feedback And Making Adjustments - Thank You! 

Happy Days Ahead, Celebration Nation!

As many of you have noticed, we’ve officially transitioned to a new website layout--our very own website platform! Like any big move, we’re still unpacking boxes and finding the right spots for all our favorite "Days."
We want to give a massive THANK YOU to all of you who have taken the time to leave comments and feedback.

You aren’t just followers—you’re our ultimate quality-control team! We’ve been reading every note, and thanks to your sharp eyes, we’ve already made a list of improvements over the last 48 hours.

Here’s a look at the "Quick Fixes" we’ve deployed based on YOUR feedback:

• Better Views: We’ve expanded our grid to 3 columns on larger screens and adjusted the page widths so you can see more celebrations at once!
• Cleaner Cards: We’ve tidied up our celebration cards with structured "pills," equal heights (no more jagged lines!), and thumbnails that fill the space beautifully.
• Date Check: We added a date overlay to our celebration cards, so you always know exactly what day you’re looking at.
• Better Flow: We’ve reorganized the /month/day pages. You’ll now see a clean, sequential list: Days > Weeks > Months. No more mixing them up!
• International Love: We widened the year selector for our mobile users on international pages for easier clicking.

The Little Details: We are working around the clock to iron out the remaining "quirks," but we couldn’t do it without your dedication. Thank you for helping us make the home of Celebrate Every Day better than ever before.

Keep the feedback coming and stay tuned

for more updates in the coming weeks!

APRIL 16, 2026 | NATIONAL WEAR YOUR PAJAMAS TO WORK DAY | NATIONAL PATHWAY DAY | NATIONAL BEAN COUNTER DAY | NATIONAL EGGS BENEDICT DAY | NATIONAL HEALTHCARE DECISIONS DAY | NATIONAL HIGH FIVE DAY | NATIONAL ORCHID DAY 

Hi Everyone,

If yesterday felt like a marathon, today is the victory lap. The calendar has gifted us a mix of total comfort, high-energy celebration, and a little bit of refined taste.

Here is your April 16th "To-Do" List:

• The Ultimate Comfort: It is National Wear Your Pajamas to Work Day. Whether you’re working from home in your flannels or you were brave enough to sport the onesie at the office, today is about maximum cozy. Bonus: Tax Day is behind us, so chill in comfort!

• The Energy Boost: Happy National High Five Day! It’s the simplest way to spread good vibes. If you’re working solo, give yourself a mental high five for getting through the week—you’ve earned it.

• The Breakfast of Champions: It’s National Eggs Benedict Day. Poached eggs, Canadian bacon, and creamy hollandaise—it’s the fanciest way to fuel up. (Bonus points if you eat it while wearing your pajamas!)

• The Numbers Game: Cheers to the "A-Team" of the finance world for National Bean Counter Day. After yesterday’s Tax Day madness, our accountants and bookkeepers deserve a serious round of applause (and maybe a nap).

• The Floral Beauty: We celebrate National Orchid Day. Orchids are a symbol of strength and rare beauty. They can be a bit temperamental— much like a good cup of coffee—but they are well worth the effort.

• The Forward Motion: It is National Pathway Day. Whether it’s a physical trail in the woods or the career path you’re carving out, today is for appreciating the journey and the routes that get us where we’re going.

• The Important Conversation: On a mindful note, it is National Healthcare Decisions Day. It’s a gentle reminder to have those "what if" conversations with your loved ones and make sure your future healthcare wishes are known.

The April 16th Challenge: Give at least three high fives today. If you're wearing pajamas while doing it, you've officially won the day.

 A Quick Thought: We’re choosing the "High Five" path today. To those of you enjoying the new vibe of these emails—virtual high five! To those still adjusting—we’ve got a comfy pair of pajamas waiting for you.
