Family Date Night

As Josh and I got married, we had several people tell us to never lose the intimacy in our relationship . Their advice was to have a "date night". Over the years, Josh and I have tried to continue to have our own special time together without all of the daily distractions. We have realized how special that time is that we had together and we applied it to our new family life. It is important for us to put aside the cell phones, computers, TVs, and all other distractions and really focus on spending quality time together. So "Family Date Night" is born!

Our first Family Date Night was spent making Valentine gifts for family, friends, and coworkers.

This was the simplest thing to make. It's pretzels, Hershey's Hugs, and Valentines M&Ms. I stole the idea from Pinterest. Gah, you gotta love that website!!

Then we played the worst board game ever...Battle of the Sexes. The game is so old that Destiny didn't know half of what they were referring to. There were a lot of hints given, but we had a good time laughing and trying to relate some of the questions to something that Destiny would be able to answer. We had a blast.

This picture cracks me up cause it looks like I'm the only one enjoying playing the game. LOL!!!

Some of the questions make my face look like this!

Finally the pizza came and we started the movie. We watched the best movie EVER! Spoiler alert...it's a tear-jerker! If you have a family, you should make this movie a priority! It has certainly already made an impact in our family!

Josh and I ended the night at CVS picking out Destiny's Valentines Day gift.

We hope that you all have a great Valentine's Day. Remember that this day isn't only about who loves you, but who do you love? Be sure to take the time to SHOW love to those who you think might already know it.

Happy Valentine's Day! Thank you for continuing to read and stay-up-to date on our growing family!
