Relationship Connection:

Getting outside of your comfort zone allows you to see another side of your partner. Becoming vulnerable to new experiences keeps us humble and able to have fun and laugh together. It is nice to be on an even playing field with your partner where both are learning something new for the first time.

Houston Rodeo Date Night

Have you ever been to a rodeo? For this date night, immerse yourself in some cowboy culture and check out the Houston Rodeo. While there may not be an actual rodeo going on every week, they typically have some kind of cowboy fun going on. Check out their website for specific dates and events: http://www.rodeohouston.com/home.aspx

If you’re okay spending some money there, indulge in some rodeo treats to snack on. Pick a “favorite” competitor and cheer like you totally know what’s going on!!

Relationship Reconnection:

After the event ask each other questions about what kinds of childhood dreams you had. Did either of you ever dream of being a bull rider? A farmer, astronaut, or sports player? Don't interrupt or try to "one up" each other, rather, enjoy the time you have to listen to what used to be really important to your spouse. Ask questions about why they wanted that and if they had a plan for achieving it, even if the plan wasn't very realistic.
