Our church offered a great opportunity that we capitalized on last night. It was called Operation Date Night. The youth and some adults volunteered to offer FREE child care for 3 hours so spouses could go out on a Valentine's date. It was so nice, and so fun to go out and be without kids and not having to worry about getting home because we didn't want to pay the babysitter more money.
We had a lot of fun sharing a dinner at Don Pablos and talking about adult things rather than who had more poopy diapers that day and the consistency of the diapers. We then browsed through Best Buy and Barnes & Noble and finished the date with a quick run through the Starbucks drive through. It was really fun!! Our kids had a blast playing games, doing art projects and eating pizza. I was afraid they would get bored and want to never go back, but they actually didn't want to leave. (thank you Jesus). I really love this concept they put together- we felt really blessed by it.
Date nights are important, I wish we could schedule one for every week, but I think once a month is something to aim for. Thanks Brenton for being a great date!
