And now, for the reason you came here today!
Friday night is date night! If you're anything like us, you'll find yourself falling into the "Same Date Cycle." Andy and I sat down and created a list of fun Spring Dates so you can mix it up!
OUTDOOR DATES
Get outside! The weather is starting to warm up and the sun is coming! See below for a list of great outdoor dates.
Take A Walk Through The Park
Take allergy meds first, 'cause that pollen will get you.
Ride A Ferris Wheel
This can be a fun and romantic date.
Go To A Flower Garden
This is such a fun date! There's so many flowers and plants growing.
Go Horseback Riding
Especially if you have friends whose horses you can ride. Because otherwise, you may have a hard time finding somewhere to ride just that day.
Watch The Sunrise
Seems romantic, right?
Volunteer At A Local Shelter
Shelters get lots of help around the holidays, but people seem to forget about them in between. Show some love.
Go On A Picnic
Duh. This is a basic spring date must.
Paint Ball
I still consider it a date to go watch Andy play. I'm not a fan of pain, but thanks.
Bike Ride
Enjoy the spring weather with a bike ride. But make sure you take allergy meds before leaving the house.
Roller Skating
If you don't have room to store bikes, you can surely store skates or roller blades. Unless you wear size 16 double wide, in which case, good luck finding any your size.
Archery Lessons
This seems like a useless, but fun skill to learn! That being said, I've never shot a bow in my life.
Play A Sport Together
Shoot a basket, kick around a soccer ball, toss the football, or throw a frisbee. Just get out of the house.
Rodeo
Get out your cowboy boots and visit the rodeo for a good time!
Use A Hammock
We love grabbing our ENOs and heading to a park nearby to chill and read or talk.
Go To The Dog Park
Even if you don't have a dog. Trust me, my dog will still love you.
Test Drive A Car
Why not? If you're sitting around with nothing to do, just try it!
Visit The Zoo
Pick a sunny day and take a walk through the zoo to visit the animals.
Mini Golf
Classic! Andy always makes dumb jokes about being exceptional at mini golf despite his height of 6'7".
Garage Sales
Of course, you've got to hit up a few garage sales. I feel like they're dying out with all the online sales though, so good luck!
Go To A Craft Fair
Even if you don't buy anything, these are intriguing to walk through.
Personal Photo Shoot
Borrow a good DSLR camera if you don't have one and take pictures of each other around town.
Frisbee Golf
If you don't know what this is, it's basically like target practice with a frisbee... but with teams... and points. Andy says it's fun!
Hot Air Balloon Ride
This has been on our bucket list for a while. One of these days!
Go Hiking
Find some trails nearby or take a drive to get there, but get some energy out by hiking.
Take allergy meds first, 'cause that pollen will get you.
Ride A Ferris Wheel

INDOOR DATES
Sometimes with spring, rain happens... more than we'd like usually. So you may be looking for some indoor activities. We've got you covered! Check out the list below for some great spring dates that are inside.
Cooking Class
Whether you sign up for a private session or group setting or watch some videos on YouTube, this can be a fun experience!
Trampoline Park
Just make sure when you go, it's not on the one night they're doing maintenance... we may know from experience.
Ninja Training
We have this place nearby that offers classes on being a ninja. Okay, not a literal ninja, but it seems fun!
Factory Tour
Chocolate factory, Coke, Ice Cream, you pick! I find these really fascinating.
Art Class
Set a date night at a local art studio and learn how to paint!
Watch A Live Basketball Game
Tis the season of March Madness!
Bowling
We don't go bowling a lot, but we always enjoy the quality time together. We always finish up with a milkshake at Chick-Fil-A
Local Concert
Check out what's going on around the town. I bet you can find a local cheap concert to attend!
Dance Class
Put yourself out there and find a local short-term dance class. Or just watch YouTube, 'cause that's free.
Laser Tag
This is seriously one of my favorites. Grab a gaggle of friends and hit up your local laser tag room.
Karaoke
We're the most terrible singers in all of history, but we love a good karaoke room!
Movie Theater
Hit up your local theater. And if you're daring, visit a drive-up!
Museum
Museums typically have an old, musty sound to them, but every time we go, we have fun.
Indoor Skating Rink
Could be roller skating or if you're missing winter, visit an ice skating rink!
Dinner + A Show
A great way to get a laugh and spend time together.
Andretti's
We love a good go-cart race. Ready, set, go. It's on!
4 Restaurant Dinner Date
Get an appetizer at one, a side dish at another, an entree at the third, and then a dessert. Make it an adventure!
Shooting Range
This can be a fun date. Our local shooting range has a ladies night where women get in cheaper. Stay safe!
Aquarium
Go see all the fishes. We love a good date to the aquarium!
Escape Room
This is fun with a group of friends! But we DON'T recommend the games you can buy to do at home.
Get Bubble Tea
This is a fun luxury drink we'll get sometimes.
Karaoke
Whether it's in the car or in front of a lot of people, dare to pretend you can actually sing. Unless you actually can, in which case, good for you!

Massages
Give yourselves a relaxing day with some massages.
Do Some Spring Cleaning
Okay, okay, this doesn't really count as a date, but you CAN make it fun by playing some pump-me-up music and working as a team.
Grill Out
What's better than a chicken in the oven? Chicken on the grill!
Teach Yourselves To Play An Instrument
Guitar, drums, violin, harmonica. Get on YouTube and learn together!

Start A Window Sill Garden
Grow herbs for your kitchen in mason jars on your window sill. Then use them to cook a nice meal together!
Movie Marathon
We love watching all the Harry Potter movies or Star Wars over a weekend. Pop some popcorn, make some root beer floats, and enjoy a movie marathon!
