Today’s topic for Wifey Wednesday is dating your spouse (inexpensively, I might add). This is a fun topic because the hubby and I have been dating each other throughout our marriage- and I think it is one of the things that has kept us connected and in love through difficult times!
We are supposed to list some fun and inexpensive date ideas so I will tell you some of the things hubby and I have done in the past (some of the more active dates I am unable to do anymore but we have the memories)
*Walk or bike the C & O Canal
*Ride his motorcycle on nice days
*Window shop at flea markets (okay, I usually buy something. I can’t pass up a good bargain 
*Go to the library
*Get coffee at a coffee shop and go to a local park
*Fly a kite (yes, we are cheesy)
*Make dinner together at home when the kids are at grandparents
*Make a campfire in the backyard and make s’mores
Anything that gives you time to be alone and focus on your marriage is great.
And now I have to share a funny story:
When Jared was about two and a half months old my (ex) stepmom convinced us to go on a date and leave the baby with her. Hubby and I love Jackie Chan movies (I told you we are cheesy) and there was a new one playing at the local theater. So, she pried the baby out of my arms and we went to the movie.
I was a breastfeeding, new, seventeen year old mother and was not aware-since I had spend little time away from my baby- that your milk can “let down”. There was a scene in the movie with a crying baby and boy, oh, boy did my milk let down! My dress was SOAKED. I was mortified and hubby couldn’t stop laughing. We left as soon as the movie was over and since it was July I didn’t have a jacket to cover up my milk soaked bosoms. We still laugh about that date to this day.
