Let's Talk Date Nights!

Hey y'all, I'm Ashley from Let's Get Bananas.  I am so excited Jess is letting me guest post today!  Today we are going to talk about date nights.  I'm a firm believer that date nights are super important.  It's only a matter of time before our little family grows (calm down, we are 3+ years out, no worries) so we need to enjoy all the time we have now.  My #1 favorite, go to date is dinner out at a restaurant.  Over time we've learned that is where we have our best conversations.  We're both super busy and have all sorts of things going on during the week, so having a chance to sit down at dinner with no distractions is the perfect thing for us.  I especially like to have a bottle glass of wine with my meal and just spend a couple hours chatting away over dinner/drinks.


Another one of our favorite dates is a relaxing weekend getaway.  It's amazing how much a quick trip can completely turn things around.  We've been to New Orleans (not super relaxing, but definitely a great city for a getaway), Fredericksburg and Canyon Falls lake.  All of these are perfect destinations for a short trip with lots of things to do.  Our everyday life is very organized/planned (we live off our calendars), so sometimes it's nice to just get away together and not have a single plan for the weekend.


What are your favorite date nights?  Don't forget to stop by and say hi - I love meeting new people!  Thanks Jess for letting me take over your blog today!
