Jonathan and I have been traveling this past week, which deserves a blog post of its own, so more on that to come. This post will be a catch up post from date night the past 2 Wednesdays. I also hope some of you are stealing these ideas and having some of your own date nights!
Date Night #7 – Kid Night
Not surprisingly, Jonathan picked the theme for this night. We talked about all our favorite memories, toys, trips, movies, TV shows, etc. from our childhood days. It was a lot of fun to reminisce on a great time in our lives. My, how things have changed so quickly in only 15-20 years. Activities included the following:
We built an awesome fort!
And laid pillows down to make the floor extra comfy to hang out on.
Then we ate hot dogs, macaroni and cheese, and apple sauce. These were “healthier” than our childhood versions (hot dogs were 100% organic beef without bun, mac n cheese was made of rice flour and real cheese, apple sauce was 100% apples with no added sugar).
Then we watched 90’s commercials on YouTube, and hopped on Amazon Prime to check out Are You Afraid of the Dark? and Clarissa Explains it All. Great shows!
You want to watch those commercials too, right?

Date Night #8 – Whole Foods & Despicable Me 2
First we went to Whole Foods to grab some dinner to go…aka dinner we could fit in my purse and bring to the movie. The best thing we picked up was:
This. Any flavor, doesn’t matter. They are just great. They also have a love poem written inside if that is something you enjoy.
Then we were off the Elvis Cinemas (aka the Cheap-o Theater) for a viewing of Despicable Me 2, which was hilarious, especially this scene:

What I love most about the minions musical debut was the beautiful combo of All 4 One and Boyz 2 Men.

All in all a great night and I highly recommend seeing Despicable Me 2. Hilarious movie!
