A Date Day Idea That Might Surprise You

You’ll notice I’ve been on the hunt for date night and date ideas lately that are a little “outside the box.” While going to the movies or grabbing dinner is fun (and very important for that special someone) – it’s equally important to find experiences that you can share with your loved one that allow you to connect in new ways.
