You can use the minDate property, like this:

$("input.DateFrom").datepicker({
    changeMonth: true, 
    changeYear: true, 
    dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd',
    minDate: 0, // 0 days offset = today
    maxDate: 'today',
    onSelect: function(dateText) {
        $sD = new Date(dateText);
        $("input#DateTo").datepicker('option', 'minDate', min);
    }
});

You can also specify a date, like this:

minDate: new Date(), // = today
