Date Night for Couples

We have a tradition we love. Near Valentine's Day each year, either
the husbands or the wives plan a surprise night out for the others.
The first year, we sent the husbands on a treasure hunt to find us.
People at the various stops had clues to hand the husbands until they
found us at a restaurant waiting to have dinner with them. One stop
was a local bar where they could shoot a game of pool, one stop was a
florist shop, etc.

The following year they outdid the wives with a crazy treasure hunt
leading us various places including a local bar that had feather boas
for each of us behind the counter, another location that had
chocolate boxes with our pictures on them, and Victoria's Secret,
where a gift waited for us. We ended with a very nice dinner and a
ton of laughs.

One year we did a not-so-newlywed game where the husbands had to
answer questions we created just for them. Questions like "what is
your youngest child's shoe size?" and "where has your wife always
wanted to go on vacation?" were laughter traps, as were some of the
racier questions. Each husband was given a roll of quarters. For each
"correct" answer (according to the wife), he got to keep the quarter.
For each wrong answer, the quarter was thrown into the pot. My
husband was throwing the quarters in before the question was read by
the end.

Each year has been different and very fun. Great memories for all six
of us.
