Dazzling Dates for a Year {Printables @ ReMarkableHome.net}


Today I gave this cute man, my sweetheart of 12 years, a whole year of fun for Valentine’s Day!

You may have seen these “Year of Dates” ideas floating around the internet.  I decided that was the perfect gift to give my honey this year.  We try to go on a date about once a week, but our dates typically consist of going to dinner and then running errands at Wal-Mart or Target or the grocery store.  Not very glamorous or fun.  I decided it was time for us to spice things up in our dating life and have a lot more FUN!  I scoured the internet for ideas, asked my friends and family on Facebook for ideas, and racked my own brain for ideas that my husband and I would enjoy.  My super creative sister Laura who has an awesome
and Dating Divas were my biggest inspirations.  I warn you some of the dates allude to activities meant for married couples.....
, if you know what I mean!

I came up with 17 different dates for us to choose from over the next year!  I didn’t assign a certain date to a certain month, but opted to put all the dates in a binder so we can choose what will work best for that month and time of year.  Each date has a Movie Idea for watching a movie together at home after the date, since that is what we usually like to do when we get home, among other things;)

I printed up each date on a piece of cardstock and put them in a 3-ring binder with a clear pocket cover.  I added a few extras to some of the dates, just for fun, like a flashlight for our campout date or some chopsticks for our Chinese date.  I just slipped them into the page protectors, behind the date card.

I am so thrilled with how it turned out and, more importantly, my honey and I are super excited to get started on doing them! 
You can buy all 17 dates to print for only $5!  I made all the dates non-specific as far as restaurants so that anyone could use them.
Note: I just found a tutorial for personalizing your own fortune cookies that will be perfect to use with the Chinese date.  You can find it HERE on U-Create!
Note: For the bookworm date, my intention with the piñata is to buy or make a small piñata and fill it with bedroom toys.
