Valentines Day tends to screw up the LBS big time. And there is no reason for it, it is really just another day on your trip.
A card? Of two minds here.
NO.
and...
It would be different if you did get a card. However, YOU should attach no significance to it if you decided too. With that being said, should you get a card...do not do the romantic "I love you so much, you complete me" type of card. Instead something funny and light.

I am not going to get my H a card or anything. The kids are giving him something. It has never been a huge deal for us, though we have usually exchanged small gifts or gone out to dinner and I don't want to make an issue of it at all this year.
Lost, I would assist your children in getting cards and/or a little something for your h. Nothing over the top.
As for you, I would purchase a card that had no mushy stuff on it and keep it in a drawer just in case he gets you one. You can't have any sentimental ties to the card or he will feel pressure.
It you want to hang out at home on Sunday, by all means do it. Why should you have to leave home just because it is Cupid's big day. If you can keep things light and simple, stay home.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.

Now you are talking! This is what your journey is all about...doing for you and your children. I think we all will stop by, watch the race and sample some of that tasty sounding food.
