Just a glimpse at a few of the reasons I smiled today....

Great Date 1

A few weeks ago, I posted about the Great Date Experiment that Mark and I were hoping to participate in.

Last weekend, we headed out for our first date! The instructions tell you not to look at each part of the date until you have finished the previous point....That was kind of hard for the planner in me!

 

THE DATE:

We went to BJs for dinner (we had never been there!). We were supposed to ask waiter surprise us with whatever he wanted to for dinner! I think it stressed our waiter out a bit! We ended up loving all of the food that we got!

Next, we had to decided whether to make the car super hot or super cold while driving...If you know us well, you know that I hate the cold and Mark hates the hot! So we had to rock, paper, scissor to see who could decide--and I won! We had to choose an activity to do while talking about some questions we were given.  They suggested bowling/ taking a walk....But we just chose to keep driving around instead! 

We ended the night at Target....where we each had a few dollars to pick out a dessert the other one has never had before! That was a challenge, but it was really fun, and we had some dessert to enjoy on the drive home.

It was a very spontaneous date night--but so much fun! The questions they gave us to talk about got us talking about different things, and we are excited for Date #2!
