2. Have a “not-so-average” movie night.
This is what I like to call the “Cater to You” movie night. The ‘caterer’ waits on their spouse hand and foot. The receiving spouse gets all the pampering on this night, and the next time, you switch places. The recipient may get a foot rub or a shoulder massage, but definitely the chance to pick their favorite movie or favorite genre of movie. The caterer also does everything from the husband painting his wife’s toenails to the wife feeding her husband grapes! It means even more when the caterer has to sit through a romantic comedy or one of those Jason Bourne movies. Give it a whirl!
Love ’em! Thanks for sharing. I just posted on my site today something I learned from Aja to have consistent dates (at least twice per month). These free fun ideas can fill in the other 2 times each month and my wife and I should have enough ideas and plans to date weekly. 🙂
Thanks Jackie! I’m all about the free stuff! Especially when there’s no sitter!
Great list Sheree!
Thanks Lamar!
Lamar and I are always playing words for friends..does that count :-). But I like these ideas…especially the foot rub!!!
Yup! LOL As long as you’re doing something TOGETHER, it counts. I just love a competitive couple…Its so cute!
Here’s an oldie but goodie; take some food out the cupboard and make some sandwches and go on a picnic. Another one is taking a bubble bath together.
i love all the ideas. another good one is dancing for your mate or cooking together and feeding each other 🙂
We do the photo booth idea all the time! Some of our funniest photos live on our iPhones.
Now that we have a 7 week old baby I’d like to start taking evening walks to relax the baby before bedtime. It should be easier now that the weather is cooling down.
