Date Night: The Pledge

Despite my/our best efforts Dustin and I haven't been that great at dating.  I became aware of the blog Simply Modern Mom through another blog I follow and I fell in love.  At the beginning of 2010 she and her husband began their Project 52: Date Nights.  I loved how they made a contract with each other, both signing the document and setting the rules for the dates they would have each week.  Now Dustin and I have had a date every week for the past 4 weeks but I haven't linked up with her on Tuesdays yet, maybe someday.  The point is that we are getting started.  So far so good.

I didn't get a picture of our contract, just know that it was downloaded from Simply Modern Mom, signed by both of us and a few rules added.  One of the rules we added is that both computers are to remain off unless use of the computer is important for the date.

I'm excited to see what this will do for our relationship.  I'm excited to see what creative things we come up with to do for dates.  Our dates need to be as free as possible, so they will almost always be at home except for a few instances which will be posted here shortly.

I would encourage any of you to join the project and link up at Simply Modern Mom or not.  I will post our dates here because I know you are all dying to know what Dustin and I will do to date eachother.
