A Quarantined Date Night

If you’re wondering how to shelter in place and have a date night here are a few helpful thoughts.

If your home is like ours it has gotten a lot more crowded.  Don’t get me wrong it has been awesome.   And, even though your daily routine along with all your routines, has been turned upside down I think it’s probably more important than ever to fine a date night this month.

Karla and I really like to get out on date night, find a place we have never been before and spending some time just growing our relationship.

Here are a few ideas:

• Getting food from a local restaurant instead of cooking at home.
• Still trying to make it special by creating a private space for just the two of you.

• • Each on the porch
  • Set a table in the back yard with a few lanterns
  • Don’t take night so literally – how about breakfast in bed

• Put away the distractions and let the rest of the family know what your’ up to. They will respect your time.
• Focusing on each other and have some meaningful conversations about your current circumstances.

• • What has been the most challenging part of this for you?
  • What has been the biggest surprise blessing from God?
  • What new thing are you doing that you want to keep doing?
  • GUYS – Honey, what do you need from me right now?
