20 Date Ideas

So I was sitting in class yesterday struggling to think of what I should post to my blog. My friend, Jessica, and I talked about cool dating ideas. It sounds pretty sweet, doesn't it? I Have gone on plenty of dates before, but none that were super fun and exciting, so I decided to take some time and do 20 of these random dating ideas and put them to the test. I want to see if they really are fun or not! I'll be doing this within the next 4 months. I don't want to overload myself with dating and what not especially with so much school and work I have to do.

1. Cook Together
2. Play Scrabble
3. Picnic at the Beach
4. Play a Wii
5. Play a game of Tennis
6. Nerf Gun War
7. Volunteer at a soup kitchen or animal shelter
8. Go to a Haunted House/Corn Field
9. Go to a Shooting Range
10. Go paint balling
11. Visit an Elderly Home; Bring Flowers
12. Play Miniature Golf
13. Have a coloring contest/Draw each other
14. Go on a Hike
15. Go Sledding in Pine Valley
16. Build a fire and make S'mores
17. Go to Santa Clara Swiss Days
18. Attend the Taste of Dixie Festival
19. Go to the Rodeo
20. Make Homemade Icecream

So lets have some fun with this and I'll definitely report back on each date that I have been on. When the end of the 4 months come I'll rate each date from greatest to least. It'll be fun so hopefully everyone can get an awesome idea on what they can do for their own dates!

Welcome To My Blog!


I am way excited to begin my blog! It will be fantastic! Now I know that with blogs you kind of need a theme going on, so I decided to dedicate my blog to all the Amazing miracles that happen in the world around us everyday! It may also help those to take the time to check out the glorious beauties of the world too. Who knows!

As I mentioned before in my About me section (I assume you have read it) I had mentioned that I served an LDS mission for 18 months in Indiana and I learned quite a bit on how to recognize the miracles in my life. It was interesting to see the difference miracles had om my perspective of life. I think life became a lot easier to encounter, to cherish, and to know that I could definitely be doing better in my life. Miracles gave me a grander appreciation for this world, and a love that I never had before. I am very grateful for my mission, and am humbled by the experiences that I have had in Indiana. I definitely think while I was there I became a literal Hoosier to the core! Fun times! 

I remember in my mission there was a time that I kept a small little journal of all the miracles that I saw everyday, so this blog isn't just to help others but for me as well because I haven't been keeping up with that journal as I should be. I do believe this will probably help me a whole lot more than anyone else.

I know that as you take the time to read and as I take the time to write, we both will hopefully enjoy the blog, and then we can see the miracles in our lives more. It will be fun!

Also, please feel free to comment! I love hearing other peoples' opinions!
