I mentioned in my new year’s resolutions post that I really want to make my marriage, my relationship with the husband, a priority in 2013.
We had our first 2013 solo date just a few weekends ago. It wasn’t anything over-the-top: just lunch at Outback with a giftcard. But it was us dining out for the first time since early September. My parents watched L & Z while we relaxed & chatted & filled up on shrimp & flatbread & steak. It was a great way to reconnect & remember we like each other besides the fact that we co-parent the same cute kiddos.
So when I was contacted recently by edenfantasys.com, I thought back to my resolution & checked out their site.
Yes, they do offer a wide variety of sex toys {most of which made me blush}, but I was excited to find they have great bath & beauty products & lingerie that would probably work for my post-partum body.
Things I also loved about eden fantasys: free shipping over $35 {I hate paying shipping} & great sales & promotions. Y’all know I can’t resist a good deal.
Because the people behind eden fantasys want us both to have a happy start to the new year, they’ve offered a $50 gift card to one of my readers to be used on anything of your choice!

I like to treat myself to massages, bubble baths & quality bedroom time. 😉 Getting divorced has made me remember my sexuality on my own.
I obviously need more than one entry, so I followed Eden & I’m going to tweet your giveaway right now. 🙂
My favorite way to reconnect with my husband has evolved as my kids have grown. I find now that I love to surprise him after work by picking him up from the bus stop with makeup and parfume on, then taking him out for dinner and drinks. We talk and enjoy this small bit of privacy. 🙂
We love dinner and drinks, just being able to talk is HUGE!
I tweeted of course 😉
I like to reconnect by trying a new restaurant or seeing a new show at the theater. But really anything that gets us out of our daily routine works!
I like to have date nights when we can – even if it’s just a simple dinner or running errands without the kiddo. It’s nice to have uninterrupted time together.
I like playing board games or card games with my husband.
My favorite way to connect is just cuddling and not talking about finances, our poor health, sick relatives, or how much the house needs cleaned…but just US! That’s my very favorite time of day. <3

I love staying home & watching TV. 🙂
I love to reconnect with my husband by spending time together, talking and watching tv, after the kids are in bed. Although we did have a pretty fantastic (10th) anniversary back in August with a steakhouse dinner and a comped night at the Borgata in Atlantic City.
I follow @suzstreats and @edenfatasys on twitter.
After having our third child I am finding time for us to connect is getting harder and harder. We still have not made it out for a date alone without Charlotte (7 months) since she is still strictly nursed. But it is nice going out to dinner and trying to talk without the constant interruption from the two boys. Although I find cuddling while watching tv makes me fell most connected 🙂
Our thing is movie night!
I followed everyone on Twitter (my ID is @auntmaggierocks). And here’s my tweet!

A special homemade dinner at home with a glass of wine & sitting by the fire (winter) or on the back patio (summer).
I love to just cuddle on the couch while watching an old, favorite TV show or movie that brings back memories.
Time alone with the spouse is a luxury, and we enjoy it more when there’s no distracting house around demanding something.
We love to play our wedding song and relive our favorite moments together.

we like renting a movie and cuddling up together in bed to watch it
Oh Suz! I blushed and smiled all at the same time over this giveaway! We love to reconnect by playing hookie from work for a day and getting out on the water. We’ll go to one of the islands or sandbars and just hang out!
My favourite way to reconnect with my husband is to look at photos together.

I like to go for a meal then a trip to the cinema. We don’t go the to the most expensive restaurant, just our regular where the service and food is great.
Our favorite ways to reconnect are to cuddle up in bed with a film, go for a walk and chat in the park or have a spontaneous little dinner date out 🙂
I love sitting on the couch watching TV with my husband. I work night shifts so when I have a night off that it enjoyable just to do that. We also have a romantic getaway planned for Valentines day!! I am so excited. Disney Hotel and 2 days at Disney without the kids!!
I followed you and Eden Fantasys and I tweeted!
When I want to reconnect with my partner, I make a special meal, get lots of chocolate and other snacks, a nice bottle of wine and settle into a nice cuddle and watch a film together 🙂
My favorite way to reconnect with my husband is to enjoy dinner at the restaurant where we first met. We love to reminisce about that first date while we’re there, and talk about our favorite dating/marriage memories all night. Sometimes it’s easy to forget what first brought us together, but going to our restaurant always brings us back to where we need to be.
Definitely just chilling and cuddling together
My favorite way to reconnect is bed-ins. We typically do this right before laundry day. We make munchies and rent a few movies and just stay in bed and snuggle and talk all day.
I love doing really thrill-inducing things to spice it up, such as going to amusement parks, rockclimbing, and white-water rafting. When we get home, we’re so exhausted (yet enthralled) that we’re basically ripping each other’s clothes off the minute we step through the door (;

Dinner out is always great!
Our favorite way to re-connect is planning a dinner out to special restaurant in the area that also boasts great service! We have some of our best conversations over a wonderful meal together where we can focus on just us!
We love to spend time cooking together.
Those are SUPER cute babies! I’d love a little sister shirt for my friend’s daughter.
Date nights!! Even date nights at home. We use a sitter once a month, our families once a month and then have “in home” date nights the other two weeks. It’s become a huge and important part of our marriage with 2 small kids.
Movie nights are always fun together!
