Dates in a Jar (DIY)

December 3, 2013

My husband and I enjoy our date nights and try to make it a priority to spend quality time with each other. Our dates  have been nothing but fun thus far because of our carefree nature and random ideas. 
                              
Food tasting date 🙂 
(no worries, we do make purchases before we leave!)

I’ve been seeing these date night jar ideas circulating the web and thought this would be a great idea to heighten the spontaneity we already take on our current dates, also eliminate the few indecisive moments.  It was important for us to be realistic with the ideas we placed in the jar and not be too vague.

Here’s our date night jar: Rema’s Edition!

    Themed dinner night (Mr/Mrs)

    Two of each so we each get a chance 
    to plan dinner.

    • Caribbean
    • Fiesta
    • Chinese
    • Any

    • Cook together
    • Bible trivia

    • Bake together

    Updates to come in a few weeks as to how we used the jar, changes or add ons made to the date night jar . We are not limited to only the ideas listed above; more ideas will be added to the jar!
    This is definitely a great idea to do with your loved one(s). If you do create a date jar, I would love to see it along with all your date ideas. Happy dating and remember to be as ready as you can be!!

    Blindsided

    This year started off with a blessing as I birthed my precious third baby. Two months later I find myself hospitalized for sickle cell crisis not once but twice. I never deemed myself a sickle cell warrior as I grew up watching my other sisters deal with this disease a lot worse than I ever […]

    Fear in Vulnerability

    I recently shared on instagram some personal trials. I stated it was a long, vulnerable transparent post; which it was! I originally came on here (the blog) to paste the post so it could be available on most of my platforms but I was inclined to post about fear in vulnerability instead.  I contemplated for […]
