- Start date
DH and I have been trying to do this too. With kids and their schedules, weekly is too much for us also, so we have been shooting for monthly. I love the idea of your anniversary date! That way we always know when it will be and we can plan around it. I'm going to keep this in mind for next month. Thanks!
At first I thought the weekly date would be okay, but really it was to much, so I'm going back to shooting for once a month at least, if not 2. The summer will make that easier as well and help keep expenses down. Nothing like taking a late night walk at the park on a Friday night before or after dinner.
I've got something way exciting planned for next month already. NOw don't laugh to loud everyone.... :rotflol: I'm going to get us tickets to the Womens Roller Derby. I heard them on the radio the other day and thought what the heck. That would be a date night neither of us would ever forget and would give us a night of laughter together. I don't know why, but I'm excited. It's just so off the wall!

Yes, that should be fun. I used to watch roller derby on tv when I was a kid. I didn't know it still was a sport. :rotflol:
That's awesome!LOL! good for you!
Weekly is hard, but it's so important -I'm still shootin' for it! :flower:

Remember that dates don't have to be at night! Sometimes we can exchange kids with friends == and go out on a weekend day. How about for brunch? Or lunch? An afternoon movie? A trip to a museum? Breakfast at a new spot, or an old favorite spot? One summer night, my husband and I got banana splits for dinner without the kids. I'll never forget how great that dinner was on a hot night! I think there should be SOME element of treat to the date. When you have little kids, it can be a huge treat to have breakfast at a diner, reading the newspaper while your coffee cup is refilled - not spilled all over the newspaper by your children!

Wow. That says it all! Although-watching the news snuggled on the couch while the boys play in another room would work for me! :haha:
Being that I'm divorced and not looking to "see" someone just yet, I am glad to see how many of you are putting forth the effort for date nights and hope to share this experience with someone special someday!!!!
