Family Date Night

We started up the 2nd season of family date night a few weeks ago. Last year I started a weekly family date night tradition. Brian and I tried to pick a new place to go to each week, usually it was a park or somewhere we could walk outdoors. It forced us to set aside our to-do list and focus on the family; we also discovered some new places around the city such as Millennium Park.

I am hoping that we can keep up this tradition this summer. I think it is important that we spend some relaxing, quality time with the kids and each other where we don't let the daily stresses get to us. Its not where we go or where we eat that matters, its about having fun.

Allison was fascinated with the geese. She was going to walk right up to them but got distracted by another set of geese near Brian.

Yay for the revivial of Family Date night. Great idea to set the outside stresses of life aside once in a while to just enjoy what you and Brian and creating together.
