Dating should not end after you get married! Dates give Jay and I something to look forward to each week. Dates don't need to be expensive; they just need to occur regularly and be something out of the ordinary (if you watch television every night together, that isn't a date). However, it gets difficult to keep thinking of new things to do. To help our family and friends out, I have listed a few ideas below. If you have any ideas, we would love to hear them!
- Take photographs of each other or the outdoors. Don't worry if you don't have a great camera, just say "cheese!"
- Go on a picnic
- Build a fort out of couch cushions and tell each other stories
- Paint/draw a picture, you'll be amazed at how much fun it is to witness each other's creativity
- Take a blanket to the park and gaze at the stars
- Bake cookies and share them with your neighbor
- Dream shop-Jay and I window shopped for appliances and it was really fun!
- Give each other foot massages
- Go for a walk, ride bikes, or roller-blade
- Spend an evening at Barnes & Noble. We spend hours perusing the books and seeing who can find the funniest or most informative selection.
