Date Jar

Chris and I gave Corban and Abigail a date jar last month.  
It is filled with 12 folded blue slips of paper and 12 pink slips 
(6 of each for a Mommy date and 6 of each for a Daddy date) 
on which we wrote date ideas to do with each of them throughout 2013.  
On the first day of each month, they each get to pull out one of their slips to find out what their date (sometime that month) will be!  
For January, Corban and Abigail both picked Daddy dates.  
Abigail's was a date for dinner together at Chik-fil-a (with a milkshake!) and Daddy 
"picked her up" for the date with flowers (which she proudly kept on her dresser for 2 weeks!).  
Ladies Man
Corban's January date was a 
They set sail with other pirates on an adventure searching for treasure and battling 
"Barnacle Bill" on a cruise along the intercoastal waterway.    


Corban's favorite part was the 
water cannons!
Chris and Corban continued their daddy/son day that afternoon by going to the 
new Math Midway exhibit at the museum together.
