Yeah! We made it the first half of 2012 now the fun begins!
Its summertime. The kids are out of school. Vacations are being planned. Oh and last but not least, date nights are being planned!
The weather is inviting us all to come outside & enjoy the sun, the pool, the cookouts, and anything our minds can think of to do outside. So I was thinking this would be a great time to give you some outdoor date night activities to do.
Let’s take our quality time to the great outdoors!
A few summertime outdoor date night activities:
- Camping: Hey what could be better than roughing it outdoors with your spouse with no electricity, no cellphones, no TV? I say nothing! One thing for sure, camping will give you uninterrupted time to bond, team build, and just relax together. I say give it a whirl even if its just in your back yard.
- Fishing: Out on an open lake/river, talking and drinking a couple of cold beverages is a very relaxing time to have with your spouse. You could even have a friendly competition going. Whomever catches the least amount of fish, cooks dinner that night.
- Swimming: Wife puts on her bikini. Hubby puts on his speedos. Hey if you don’t make it to the pool or beach it’s not my fault you looking extra good to your spouse LOL Plan a relaxing day at the beach/pool and enjoy the cool refreshing water. If at the beach, pack a lunch and make a day out of it. Rub suntan lotion over each other body. Play sand volleyball. Or just lay under the big umbrella & people watch. Hey we all know how much fun that is!
- Music in the park: Check out local free music events in your city. Get some portable lawn chairs, a picnic basket full of goodies, a cooler full of cold beverages, grab your spouse hand & just enjoy the music and dancing (hey that’s the two of you dancing together)
- Hiking: Plan a nature hike or scavenger hunt. Take your time and walk, talk, and just enjoy the scenery and the quality time. You can also include this during your camping trip!
These are just a few ideas. Throughout the summer, I will share with you some of the great outdoor date nights we embark on. I am currently planning our camping trip. I am really excited (husband finally said YES). I cannot wait to pitch the tent, blow up the air mattress, open up the cooler & relax next to my husband for an overnight camping trip. This should be fun! We will definitely utilize our team building skills.
What outdoor date night activities do you have planned for this summer?
