Relationships

As we approach another Valentine's Day, I thought it would be fun to share some date night ideas on a budget. During COVID-19, my husband and I became pretty good at finding fun ways to connect with each other at home. As we’ve had three kids since then and find it hard to get out on dates for that reason, we have continued carrying on a lot of these at-home date night traditions. Spending time together doesn’t always have to look like fancy dinners or going to the movies. As military families, we are often met with a few obstacles that make getting out on regular date nights difficult. One, we are often far from family members who we wish we could rely on for the occasional date night. Second, good babysitters are hard to come by and can take a while to establish.
