30 Day Blogging Challenge Day 12: A date you would like to go on.

I’ve been on some amazing dates with my wife. One of my all time favorites was her birthday date last Spring when we went with our friends Chad and Shay to the opera in Chicago. Awesome.

Wendy and I have actually been planning the date we’d like to go on. We talked about it again on Sunday while we were driving. We’re calling it our “Date with Art.” Here’s the set up: Three to four couples go to the Des Moines Art Center together. We enjoy the galleries, but as we go through each person is to pick out one piece of artwork that, for some reason, stands out to them in some way. Each person is to spend some time really looking at that piece of artwork and will have specific questions we’ll give them that they need to contemplate.

Afterward, we’ll go out for a nice meal and each person will share which piece of artwork they spent time with, why it stood out to them, and what they learned or experienced through it.

What a great evening!
