book titles as a game.
You’ve probably felt like it’s about time something was easy this weekend.
If you were serving 6+ people Thanksgiving dinner, working in the kitchen, or going to black Friday you’re probably ready for something that doesn’t take too much effort.
We grabbed some dinner and then went to the bookstore. Usually we just grab some books and sit in the comfy chairs until the say, “The store will be closing in 5 minutes.”
Not this time..
Mike and I took the super easy route for this date night. It was suprisingly fun and pretty hilarious.
We asked each other questions and then had to answer in under one minute…with books. Our answers had to be given with book titles. We had no idea what most of these books were about and if we did we ignored that we knew what the book’s premise was and went with the title. Here are some samples…
Questions:
How would you describe each of our kids?
Emmett: The Reader
Grace: Joy in the Morning
Miriam: If Wishes Were Horses
Emma: The Girl Who Chased the Moon
What’s our life like right now?
A New Turn in the South
Do More Great Work
Home: What it means and Why it matters
When All Hell Breaks Lose (Mike found this one and I totally laughed when I saw it…we have four kids…what can we say?) haha.
What do you hope for in 5 years?
Happier (if that’s even possible, because our life is pretty wonderful right now…)
Transitions (Emmett will be going to college)
Blessings
Think and Grow Rich (in more ways than money)
Awesome
The Best Year of Your Life
The Sweet By and By
Living the Truth
Growing up Laughing
How would you describe each of the kids?
Grace: So Near
Emmett: Greatness. The 16 Characteristic of True Champions
Emma: The Wild Girl
Miriam: The Sweet By and By
Some more questions you could ask:
What’s your favorite thing about me?
What’s your favorite aspect of our relationship?
Who is most like me? (Go to the Biographies/Auto Biographies)
What makes you happiest?
What is something you want to do that you’ve never done?
The thing that is so fun about this date is all of the little secrets and inside jokes you have with each other…they totally come out. These were just some of the questions that we answered…and some of the other answers we’ll just keep to ourselves…
So many times Mike would come back with a book that would totally make me laugh. And if you’ve heard me laugh you know that we could possibly get kicked out of the bookstore for that laugh.
Have fun! I want to hear about some of your book titles! (Tell me in the comments…)
Wish you could have another date idea? Get one here.
Having your date night photographed is fun! Start here.
Happiness,
Davina
