12 Days of Christmas Dates

12 Days of Christmas Dates12 Days of Christmas Dates

 

Day One.

Decorate the Christmas Tree together or better yet, go pick out a real Christmas Tree together this year!

 

Day Two.

Make hot chocolate and a batch of christmas cookies together. Maybe even break out Candyland from your childhood and play a game against each other.
 
Day Three.

Go to the Nutcracker or another classic Christmas performance near you.
 
Day Four.

Decorate a gingerbread house together!
 
Day Five.

Campfire it up and make homemade s’mores. You could even make this a double date with some friends for a night filled with conversation and laughter.
 
Day Six.

Volunteer at a local Children’s home, soup kitchen or assisted living home for the night and serve others.
 
Day Seven.

Gift exchange. Go to Target or some other store and give yourself a $10 limit to find the other person a gift. Set a time limit and meet back up at the front of the store with your gift. Go somewhere fun to exchange gifts and enjoy!
 
Day Eight.

Go ice skating together then warm up with some Starbucks.
 
Day Nine.

Get dressed up and go on a date night downtown or somewhere decorated with all kinds of lights/christmas cheer.
 
Day Ten.

Go look at Christmas lights around your city or neighborhood.
 
Day Eleven.

Christmas movie marathon! Snuggle up with some of your favorites and a big bowl of popcorn.
 
Day Twelve. 

Go to a Chistmas Eve service together. Every year, my husband and I go to one with our families and we just so enjoy the time of worship together.
