We missed our monthly date last month due to my poor schedule planning and a busy month, but it's ok. The reality of life is that things don't usually ever go as planned. So we'll roll with that and it will just be a planned date to save for the future.
This month I had planned a baseball date for Matt and me. No, I did not take him to a Royal's game. My plan was to hook up a TV on our new deck and watch the Royals game outside. With my tech-ish skills that did not happen. =)
Judson and I started out the date by surprising Matt at work with a "ticket stub" to our date night and a smoothie. Matt got home later that afternoon and we grilled some ballpark hot dogs and enjoyed dinner out on our deck. We then threw a baseball around for awhile. Matt attempted to get the game going on his computer, but our internet was misbehaving. While Matt fiddled with that I pulled out a little baseball trivia game in which Matt surprised me and knew almost all the answers. I had no idea he was such a baseball expert! IMPRESSIVE! We then went on a walk and listened to the game from Matt's phone. The Royals won the game which was a nice added bonus to the evening!
We needed a night of intentional time together, so I was thankful for this laid-back date idea. It is fun to have someone to date be married to the only one I want to date!
