Number 29. Have a date night with my hubby every other month.

Quite a few people, including my husband said to me that this should say every month, but I knew that would'nt be achievable with the commitments of family life finding a free night isnt always that easy! I did however feel its important for Rund and I to have the odd night to ourselves as its something we just don't do!
Our attempts at a date night have always seemed to be scuppered by the kids, before Christmas we had a child free night so had intended to go to the pub for a drink, we'd just put on our coats and then we got a call to say Liddy was ill so our date got cancelled!
I then decided that the only way to ensure we had a night out is to book a babysitter and then we will definitely do it!

Friday 15th March. Babysitter booked and we went to the cinema to watch Side Effects with Jude Law, Catherine Zeta Jones and Channing Tatum. We both really enjoyed it, had a laugh and reminded my husband he needs to brush up on his manners...opening car doors etc!! After the film we quickly nipped to Asda as whilst we had no kids in tow we could do a quick dash round...how times have changed!
Looking forward to our next date...a night at the Opera!

Saturday 20th April. A night at the Opera!
This was another one of my 40 things to do before I'm 40!
I managed to get 2 tickets to watch 'Carmen' at the York Opera House and Rund was overjoyed at having to accompany me in this quest!!
However for all the joking and scoffing about what we expected, we were both shocked to discover that we really, really enjoyed it, it was absolutely fantastic!

I also enjoyed an evening with my hubby, we laughed and chatted all night and it is so nice for us to have these occasional evenings to ourselves, sounds really corny but nights like this remind me why I fell in love with him and why I still love him to bits now!

Saturday 1st June 2013. Date Night No 3! Saw us heading to the cinema again to watch the Hangover 3! We had a build up as Thursday & Friday evening we watched the first and second films to refresh ourselves!! Was very funny, really enjoyed the evening and loving having these nights out by ourselves! 

Saturday 29th June 2013. Date Night No 4! Helen & Alv had the kids overnight and we had a little adventure of skinny dipping and staying up all night to watch the sunrise at Bridlington & Sewerby...see my blog for further info but needless to say we had a very funny night & it was definitely a night we'll still talk about for many years to come ! 

Saturday 21st September 2013.

Date Night No 5!

It's been a while since the last one! We've had nights out without the kids but going to parties etc..so not a night solely by ourselves!

We decided for this date we'd go for a meal as on the 28th of this month we celebrate 17 years of wedded bliss! 

We caught the train to Beverley and went to Dine Bangla, Beverley's only take your own booze restaurant! Had a beautiful meal, really enjoyed it and the company was fab too!
