Date Night’s Out are RARE at our house. In the first three years of parenthood I can count them on one hand. Literally. Our Date Night’s might look a little different now that we are parents, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t necessary. THEY ARE.
Keep dating your spouse. It is important.
Today I am going to share our weekly Date Night at Home. My husband picks up a Red Box Movie(frugal for the win) and we partake in homemade pizza night with the two munchkins. They help put on all of the toppings, which makes for an interesting array of globbed on goodness.
After pizza it is imperative to run out the rest of our wiggles and giggles.
These two are known for having a tremendous amount of energy and running out the rest of daylight is the perfect end to the workweek for us. Even better if we get to make pizza at Nana’s and run around her giant yard.
Our Date Night Out’s now happen once a month thanks to Nana moving down from Washington State. We are beyond thankful that we get to dress up, have adult conversation and get out of the house.
BUT our tried and true Date Night at Home lets us unwind and reconnect.

Love catching up with each other. Our standing Date Night at Home is so important as time feels like it’s moving faster and faster. The kids are involved in more activities, work has picked up, and I’ve started going to Pure Barre. Taking care of our relationship is important. Besides it won’t be long until the kids will be off at college… I kid.
BUT REALLY.
Date Your Spouse.
Do what works for you! Babysitters are just not in the budget-so we do what works for us.
