At home date #1

Having a little one at home means that you are restricted to being able to do certain things. One of them for instance is going on a date or just going out one night to play around like the good ole days. When the baby goes to bed at 8 or sometimes 7:30 that means you have the whole afternoon to do something but you just can't leave the house.

I have been coming up with little date ideas that we can do at home after Rhenn has gone to bed. It's so good to keep dating your husband after you are married, especially after you have kids. I looked on Pintrest to get some idea's and then while I was at the dollar store I came up with some more. I thought I would blog about them as we do them so if you are in the same boat as we are you can try them out. 

The first one we did was have a water fight. Talk about making you feel like a little kid again 

I just got this pack at the dollar store the little thing that attached to the hose was super nice because you can turn the water off while I was tying the ballon's. 

While Rhenn was taking his evening nap I filled up the ballon's so when it came time for our war they were all ready to go. I felt like it took a million years to get as many as I did but I kind of wish I would have done more because it ended to soon. 

I didn't fill them full so if we threw them at each other they would just bounce off and pop on the ground. I learned for next time that they need to be fuller, yes there will be a next time. We haven't laughed as hard as we did while we were soaking each other. 

(I wonder if our neighbors looked out the window and thought what are these crazy people doing? haha It was so worth being crazy though.)

I would have got more pictures but it is kind of hard when you are soaking wet. The not so fun part about the fight is walking around cleaning up the pieces of ballon's afterwards. 

The after results 

All that time filling up the ballon's it got over way to fast.

The date ended with ice cream fresh strawberries and carmel. Yes I like a little ice cream with my strawberries and carmel. 

I had such a fun night with my husband and can't wait to do it again. If you want to hear about our other at home date's keep reading my blog and there will be more from our crazy lives.
