I don’t want you to use any excuse to not have some fun this weekend. Be creative and think outside the movie and dinner out dating box:
One of the dates we loved when our kids were little was to bundle them up in their car seats and drive around until they fell asleep. Once they were good and knocked out, we would pull in to our local drive in theatre and watch a real live grown-up movie.
Obviously, this works best if you have kids who are sound sleepers.
Another cost-cutting advantage to this date besides saving on babysitters is that your car acts as a giant purse. You can smuggle in as many snacks as you like – guilt free.
Question for you:

Kathi to Scott: “Hey there – first a confession. Yesterday (Sunday) Roger and I completely slept in. We felt so bad but just couldn’t make it to church. So, we decided to run some errands. Roger and I were in the car and he said ‘Knowing our luck, we’ll probably see someone from church.’
Scott to Kathi: ” Church ditching is not the unforgivable sin, but hiding from your pastor is! (said with a big out loud laugh) I just read a story yesterday about someone who hid, her name was Eve. (again, said with a huge smile on my face!) Don’t take the ribbing personally, I think it’s funny. If I were you I would run the other way next time because I will shout across Target ‘Hey, Kathi I didn’t see you in church today!”
