Kite Flying and Word Fun

Project 52: Date Nights logo

We totally forgot about our date night this week till Monday at 8pm. The weekends are getting so busy that is it hard to remember. I looked through the Simply Modern Mom's date archives for ideas. So I was looking for something that required no planning. Luckily I found the First Word Game. The idea is to say a word and then your partner says the first word that comes into their mind. It was a fun activity. We learned a couple things about ourselves.
1. We watch too much tv.
2. We are perverts.
3. Seriously we watch too much tv. When the word was "modern", we both thought of Modern Family, one of our favorite tv shows.
4. I am a bigger pervert than Dave. Often thinking of a dirty word to go with the first word.

We definitely laughed playing this game. It was a great date to have when you totally forget to plan. We topped the night off with ice cream sundaes. I made mine low fat to not ruin my healthy eating.



This is date 18 out of 52 for us. Go to Simply Modern Mom to join in on the fun.

I love your date night idea! I think I will try this as a family game where we go around the circle and see where we end up. (Fortunately, my kids are all adults now, in case we end up PG!)

=)

I love Leigh's Happiness Project. And really, one of the things I love most about it is reading about your date nights. The Man & I really need to do this. It's such a great idea.

Oh, and the kite picture - too cute:D

The picture is beautiful. Playing games are always fun because it takes you out of your element.

Modern Family ROCKS! That and Community are by far the best comedies on TV right now.
