Since I was planning to do December Daily, I knew I would want to do photographable things for our dates. Enter the Downtown Apopka Christmas lights installation! We had his & hers hot chocolates (mint for him and oatmeal cookie for me) and we went to walk through the park.
It was so much fun! We took lots of pictures, including a few long exposures... because we're photo nerds after all ^.^ We even recorded ourselves singing carols and sent the video to my parents (who got quite a kick out of our silliness).
I love having simple dates like this, where we go out, while still spending one-on-one time together. Lamar said that's something he loves about me is that I come up with these simple little ideas that turn out to be so much fun.
The next 2 date nights were stay at home movie nights. One night we watched Insurgent and the other we watched Jurassic World. Both movies were really good. Movie nights are always a great goto ideas because you don't really have to plan anything. Just pick a movie, grab some snacks and get cozy!
The last "date night" we had wasn't an intentional "date night." Lamar's dad left his Chinese checkers game set after Thanksgiving and one evening I asked Lamar if he wanted to play. We played two games, both of which I lost... evidently I'm terrible at strategy games! Just terrible!! Anyway, it was fun to take a spontaneous moment for us to hang out together.
I'm glad I set that date night goal for us. It definitely stayed in the front of my mind throughout the month. Now I just need to get on the ball this month as we're more than halfway in and haven't had a date night yet. Lemme get on this!
What are your goto date night ideas??
