As most of you can probably relate, it’s hard to schedule date nights. Or even solo adventures!
Eric started a list of “date ideas” for us when we first started dating, but it kind of fizzled out once we started getting busier. So I thought I’d share my new take on it. A SUMMER DATE LIST!
I LOVE this idea because if Eric and I do get to go on a date, usually it’s last minute because he ended up getting done studying earlier than he thought (not that that happens often). But that means that we have to think of something on the fly and it usually ends up being a Netflix night or Chick Fil A (haha). I can already tell this list is going to do wonders for us, and I hope it helps you too!
Date Ideas if you want…
Food
- Make a picnic
- Get froyo
- Melting Pot fondue
- Bake cookies together
- Food Truck night
- Appetizers at a new restaurant
- BBQ with friends
- Brunch date
- “Who can make the best (dessert/smoothie/sandwich)” Contest
- Shaved Ice
An Activity
- Rock Climbing
- Fly kites
- Go swimming
- Gym date!
- Play catch in the park
- Top Golf
- Hike
- Ride Lime Bikes/Scooters
- Bowling
- Tennis
A Relaxing Activity
- Feed ducks
- Drive in movie
- Go through 300 Questions book
- See a Play in the Park
- Planetarium
- Visit a museum
- Night drive away from the city & stargaze
- Go fishing
- Paint night with Bob Ross videos (Actually one of my favorite things, LOL)
- Hold puppies (this one is for Eric…)
- Go to the temple together
Some of these ideas are obviously dates we’ve already done together, but I added them again because we loved them so much! I would love to know if you have any more date ideas or if there’s any of mine you plan to put on your own list 🙂
P.S. If you don’t already have a date idea list, it would be a fun date to make one with your S/O. Have fun!
XOXO, Carly J
