The Date: To add a little "creativity" to the standard dinner date, this weekend, we've decided to go out to breakfast! pretty creative, huh? Not really, but breakfast is our favorite meal, so it will be a lot of fun. Afterward, we are planning to go for a walk for a little exercise and more uplifting conversation. We will ditch our son with his grandma and have a good couple of hours of alone. Since we missed our date last week, I am really looking forward to this date.
The Challenge: Go out to breakfast! Or you could take one of your usual dates and mix it up a little, do it at a different time or in a different way. This can make it exciting and be very fun. (yes, I understand that going out to breakfast instead of dinner, isn't very creative, but its still fun!). Whatever you decide to do, make sure you Date Your Wife! ...in the name of accountability, Let me know your date plans for this weekend in the comments!
The Cost: $15. This is one of the greatest benefits of this date, its inexpensive!
Update: This morning we dropped off our son with his grandparents and went to Denny's! we had a good meal and then sat and talked for a while about our baby we are expecting and reviewed some baby names, etc. It was so good to sit down and have a good conversation with my wife without anything interrupting! Also, my $15 estimate was dead-on, the total was $15.18!

We live 300 miles from our closest relatives so dropping the kids of it hard. However, when my parents were in town for the weekend I surprised my wife with a Monday morning breakfast date. My parents watched the three kids for a few hours before they headed home and it was splendid. Great idea!!
