Have you ever spent time walking through model homes? If you and your spouse love homes and décor
this could be the perfect date. Even
though you may not have the money now to purchase a $600,000+ home, doesn’t
mean you can’t walk through and admire them.
This could be a great date to talk about what things you like and don’t
like about a home. Whether or not a home
theater is practical for your family, or if you really need that shower the
size of a room. Regardless of if you are
in the market for a new home, it’s fun to walk through and decide which things
you would keep, and which you would change.
The Seattle Home Show brings builders, appliances,
landscaping, and décor together in one place!
There are hundreds of exhibits to explore.
While touring the homes and exhibits, make an effort to get
to know your spouse’s likes and dislikes.
What your spouse liked 3 years ago can differ a lot from what they like
now. Especially with new trends going in
and out it’s fun to get to know your spouse better. Talk about what you would both do if you each
had a million dollars to spend. Talk
about goals and aspirations you both have for the future. If you could each purchase a dream home, what
essentials would it need to have?
Dr. John Gottman talks about how
it’s extremely important to get to know your spouse's world. (Their thoughts,
opinions, dreams, feelings, and goals) Use this date to get to know more about
your spouse while having fun! You can purchase John Gottman’s book, The Seven
Principles for Making Marriage Work here.
