I always enjoyed getting date ideas off of Pinterest, but after awhile they seemed to have the same date ideas and I started getting tired of them. I figured I would list some of my date ideas for those who may be feeling the same way I do!
1. Visit the Planetarium
This is way cool! If there is one locally, take your loved one and visit. Besides looking at stars together is so romantic ♥
Or you could look at the stars from you back yard if you don't have a planetarium locally.
2. Dig in to your Ancestry
After we got our DNA kits from Ancestry.com we took a night to build our family tree online. It was really neat being able to find some pictures of a great great great grandmother! We had a blast looking into our heritage and where we came from. We decided to do it again and we got our family involved with this too. My grandparents had some books about their ancestry and found out we were related to some cool people! So grab your laptop and cuddle up to discover history that leads down to you!
3. Organize together
If you had read any of my other posts on my blog you can probably tell that I am big into organizing. Well when I organize I only organize things that belong to me. My husband decided to organize his clothing and he asked for my help. I loved helping him organize and as we went through each clothing we sorted out his unwanted clothing into categories of trash, donate, or give away. He would model some of his clothes and it was a lot of fun. Ha. After we organized his clothes we took the trash pile out, put some of the bags into the Goodwill donation box, and sold some items to Plato's Closet. You can organize other things too like old greeting cards or some pictures! It would be fun to look back on some old memories.
4. Watch the Storm
It can depend on the weather and location but this was one date we loved doing. We have a pretty nice patio at our apartment and it was big enough that the rain doesn't get to you. We got alerts on our phone that there was going to be a severe thunder storm and we waited until the rain poured down like crazy. We got some sodas and sat on our balcony watching the crazy storm. It lasted a while but it was a really cool experience and we just sat and talked. You could still do this without a crazy storm going on ;)
5. Learn another language
At one point we would go to the library pretty often because our old apartment used to be near by. We were working at a warehouse job where you could listen to music and such, so we would go to the library and get audio books. While we were browsing the audio books we came across some language learning CDs. We got one to learn Korean and we had so much fun listening to it. When we would go out to do errands or whatever we were trying to learn Korean! Ha. It was a bunch of fun and we still throw out Korean words to each other at random. So whether you get a CD or take a class learn a new language together! ☺
Go out there and spend some time with your mate! ;)
