That's what a date should be about more than anything: time to connect. I like a fancy night out on occasion, but if you can enjoy a simple meal and looking at the stars, I'd say that's a win. It's easy to miss out on the beautiful simplicities in life.<br /><br />Congrats!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07713268121119734341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-23073374296617193852013-09-24T17:55:45.685+00:002013-09-24T17:55:45.685+00:00"Real Date" I define a date as whatever ..."Real Date" I define a date as whatever makes you and your hunny happy!

Kelly and anon, going out to a restaurant is problematic because of my food sensitivities- I always end up coming home feeling sick, so its not worth it for me. And spending 15 dollars on a date night is an expense that we were willing to make, but this is a time of year Penniless Parentinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17671140279531925880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-8752894014578042832013-09-18T09:33:42.102+00:002013-09-18T09:33:42.102+00:00I agree with anonymous.

You know when your anniversary is so why not put a few pennies aside in an anniversary fund and treat yourselves to a nice dinner out next year. <br /><br />My hubby and I like to listen to local bands and share a bottle of wine,which can be done cheaply. We don't get out much though and it's been a LOOOOOOONG time since we had a date night, we're LONG overdueKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16297536870588707817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-1277111825170302752013-09-18T09:30:44.791+00:002013-09-18T09:30:44.791+00:00I agree with Anonymous here.

I know you are frugal 365 days of the year but you also know when your anniversary falls so why not put a few dollars in an Anniversary fund to really treat yourselves? Especially since you saved on not having to pay a babysitter for the 3 kids. Here in the States that would've easily cost you about $50 for the night. Go out to a nice restaurant for a change.
