Mike and I will be celebrating 13 years of marriage on Monday. 13 years of school and work and traveling and babies. It’s been a full and fantastic 13 years and I can’t wait for 13 (and many) more. However, it’s not always unicorns and sunshine either. Making time for your spouse in your marriage has to be a priority, whether you been married for 1 year, 13 years, or 30 years. I am a big believer in regular date nights–especially after kiddos come into the picture. I can always tell when it’s been too long since we’ve had a date night and connected as a couple! Today I’m sharing some fun summer date ideas with your sweetheart since the the first day of summer is this Saturday!
