I just finished making this date night kit for the couple that counseled Charlton and I before getting married. Benny and Brenda were so generous with their time and we are so thankful for the things we learned from them that we wanted to thank them. We thought the perfect gift would be 4 date nights planned and ready to go. This is a gift to Benny, so he doesn't have to plan and a gift to Brenda, because each night will hold something new for her to discover.
The ideas come from dates Charlton and I enjoyed while dating and we still enjoy being married today...you might enjoy them too, if you're in Birmingham.
