It's time for a picnic!

One of the best dates my husband and I had was for our anniversary one year.  It was in the fall and the leaves were turning on the trees.  We picked a secluded spot along the river and had a picnic.  

So for this date, whether it be your anniversary or just a day when you need some down time, pack some yummy foods in a picnic basket, and head to your favorite spot.  Take a big blanket, and perhaps a pillow for a little “pillow talk” after your meal.  Now don’t limit yourself to just a picnic dinner.  Try a picnic breakfast, or a lunch escape.  

Your Relationship Reconnection Tip:

After you have eaten, lie on the blanket for some pillow talk.  Look up into the sky.  Are there clouds?  What shapes do you find in the clouds?  Make up a story about the clouds.  Be sure to make it a funny story so you laugh a little.  Or make it a progressive story taking turns writing the next page.  If there are no clouds then try picking a topic and write a story about it.  Remember to snuggle while you are talking!
