event of the month - year 2012
i mentioned a new idea
i found on pinterest: date night in a jar!
january was pretty much our 'test run' with
whether we would like the idea or just trash it.
*drum roll please* turns out we loved it!
to get into more depth on what it is...
i filled a jar with popsicle sticks that say:
'all things mexican date'
'get a couples massage'
'go out for ice cream' and so on.
[i also had chris put in some of his own ideas
so it would be fair]
then you go out [or stay in :) ] and do what the sticks say!
we take turns choosing the sticks!
i put enough 'date ideas' in the jar for
once a week for a year, chris and i choose a stick
every thursday.
it's really fun and gets you to do things that
you've never done and also redo things to re-spark that flame!
i was really pleased and surprised chris
loved the idea.
here's a picture of the dates we picked in january:
1. go to an antiques shop
-we went to a cute small antiques shop downtown called
found things and after that we walked two shops
down and ate some sushi at miyabi 9!
2. go to a winery
-we went to dinner with chris' mother and sister
at legends and then walked one store down to
a wine shop called winestyles
and tasted 6 different wines for free! yay coupons!
3. all things thai date
-we went to a restaurant called taste of thai downtown!
it was yummy!
4.make postsecrets
-it's one of my favorite books by frank warren
[don't know what it is? look it up!] www.postsecret.com
i love how it's so artsy [like me!]
5. buy karaoke and sing [i know it's hard to read in the photo]
-we bought a $5.00 disney hit songs game at gamestop
and sang our butts off! chris beats me every time!
we think it's the best $5.00 we spent! ;)
more date nights coming in late february and early march!
