date night

Chris and I have had some really fun (and inexpensive) date nights here lately. A couple weeks ago we went to one of our favorite places---the Georgetown Drive-In. Lincoln doesn't normally accompany us on our date nights, but the movie didn't start until 9 p.m. so we let him tag along. It was so much fun! Lincoln was awake for about an hour and then slept the rest of the time on my lap.

If you haven't been to the drive-in, you are missing out! It's a little cheaper than going to the theater, and the snacks are less expensive too. Chris and I usually just bring our own snacks ... even cheaper!

This weekend we went to Charlestown's Movie in the Park with Lincoln. They showed Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. Admission is completely free! You bring your own chairs or blanket and it's so much fun. Lincoln liked it until he fell asleep :)

What do you all do for fun on date night? We love new ideas!!

We LOVE date nights! ♥ Lots of times we just grab some ice cream or a dessert (like at Sweet Surrender-yum!) and just sit and talk. That probably sounds so boring, but we love just having time to ourselves!
