This year for Valentine's Day I created a year of dates for the Man of the House. One date per month for the next 12 months.
I've been seeing ideas like this all over Pinterest and the bloggy world for a while and thought this would be this perfect gift for him. (and really for both of us)
Added bonus: it accomplished Day 14 of The 14 Day Marriage Challenge!
Each month has a theme, such as: Hometown Tourists, Shakespeare in the Park, The Road Less Taken, Dinner and a Movie, etc. But what will the date involve? He has to wait until that month to find out the details! Some are things we enjoy doing together, or have been saying we want to do together. Others are stay at home dates giving us a chance to relax and unwind. All are inexpensive (or free!).
On individual note cards, I wrote out the plan for each date and then placed them in envelopes with the month written on them. He gets to open the envelope on the first of that month and pick the date he wants us to have our date night.
As the next 12 months come and go (probably far quicker than I would like to see them go), I hope to post a little about each month's theme and how the date worked out.
