Date Night Tips

Have you made the commitment to date your spouse more during The Real Marriage series? I decided to make a list of ideas of things to do and places to go around our neck of the woods. Make sure and head over to read Mark Driscoll's Date Night Tips.  Please share your date ideas in the comment section!

  1. Send the kids to grandma's for the night and stay home with no technology allowed. Find some candles and see if you can make it without lights for the night! No agenda planned. 
  2. Catch a play at The Muny. (Summer)
  3. Try out the ice skating at Forest Park. (Winter)
  4. Go on a hike at Pickle Springs and take a picnic lunch. 
  5. Dress up and head out for dinner date at Chaumette Vineyards and Winery
  6. Go for a drive and enjoy the desserts at The Blue Owl
  7. Giddy-up for a redneck date: go bowling and then catch some catfish under the stars
  8. Watch a movie under the stars at the Starlite Drive-in Theatre in Cadet, MO.
