Woman, Wife, Mother, Friend. Sometimes it can be really easy to lose a balance between who I am in each role. It seems like being everything to everyone else always takes priority and at times being woman and wife to my husband are placed on the back burner. I have made a conscious decision to change that. Having a date night with my Hubby has become a major part of finding that balance we need as a couple. Keeping the focus on us is key to helping our family and our lives run smooth.

Date Night

Planning Ahead

Planning ahead is key to any successful date night in our home so a trip to my local Wal-Mart to pick up a few date night purse essentials help me be sure I have plenty of time to be ready for that perfect date night – from dinner right up to our goodnight kiss.

Date Night Butterflies

You remember your first date? The butterflies, nerves and anxiety? I still feel that after 10+ years with my Hubby. I always get butterflies just like when we first started dating and love getting ready for a night of ‘just us‘. Picking out my outfit, my purse, earrings and other accessories. Planning where to eat and what movies to see. The ‘newness‘ and excitement of a date night hasn’t faded for us and I hope it never will. Still with a date comes the possibility something may go wrong. Part of making sure I avoid those moments is making sure my purse has all I need –  you know, the essentials. I always find myself prepping, checking and re checking that I have everything I need. Including the perfect date sized purse and of course all my essentials I picked up earlier.

Dinner

Italian food. I love it. It has always been one of my favorite cuisines both at home and especially on a night out. Seriously…if someone else can cook it that is always a bonus for me! Parmesan, meat sauces alfredo, garlic all things that make the perfect Italian dishes even better but they can also make for the perfect start of a night of heartburn. There have been a few nights when I had to make an early end to a date because I just couldn’t (or wouldn’t) say no to that last bite of ravioli. Thankfully I’ve learned how to enjoy my favorite dinners without ending our night out early with help from Nexium® 24HR.

Nexium Package

Nexium® 24HR

May take 1 to 4 days for full effect. Use as directed.

Just one day. All-day, all night frequent heartburn protection.

I never like making choices where I lose something I like and thanks to Nexium® 24HR I don’t have to. I can enjoy the perfect Italian meal and never worry if heartburn will cut my night short.

Fun Times

After dinner we most likely head off to see a movie. We both love all things action and adventure but this also means surround sound that can at times be a bit overwhelming. Walking out of the theater with a pounding headache is not the way I want our night to end. That’s why I am always sure to include Advil® Tablets in my purse. The small travel sized vials make adding them to my date night essentials easy and convenient. Knowing I always have Advil® on hand means I can nip that headache in the bud before it has even the slightest impact on our date night.

Advil Product

 

Advil Tablet Vial

The original round tablets providing safe, effective pain relief for over 25 years.

Nothing’s stronger, longer lasting or better on your tough aches and pains than Advil, and nothing works on more pains than Advil (among OTC pain relievers).

Use Advil tablets for headaches, minor arthritis and other joint pain, muscle aches and pains of the common cold

With Advil® as part of my date night essentials I can be sure that our date night fun lasts all the way to the closing credits.

A Goodnight Kiss

The end of a date night is always bittersweet. I’ve had a blast having alone time with my Hubby but we both know we have to get back to being Mom and Dad as well. Those last moments of the night are often the most special especially sharing a kiss with my Hubby always feels like the first time. Chapstick® Total Hydration is the perfect way to keep this date night moment perfect. I have always had extremely dry and chapped lips but Chapstick® Total Hydration made with 100% Natural Argan Oil is designed to smooth, moisturize plus keep my lips looking young and healthy!

    You said it – planning ahead is definitely the key to a successful date night. I never would have thought to stock my purse – my plans usually begin with getting childcare covered then I just wing it.

    I don't think I've ever needed any of these on a date night. I guess I'm lucky. This is an interesting list though. 🙂

    1. MrsTee Avatar

      Lucky! I always need at least 1 at on any given date…LOL

    This is a great compilation! It's truly an awesome 'date night' arsenal 😉 You just made me nostalgic to when I still was in the dating scene.

    That's sweet that you still get butterflies. It's important to be prepared too, w/the go-to products. I want to try that chapstick.

    1. MrsTee Avatar

      I really do and I hope I always do 🙂 The Chapstick is awesome! I picked the citrus but they also have a coconut one 🙂

    I need my Walmart to stock that Chapstick! I get such dry lips in Western New York, would be a great addition to my purse.

    1. MrsTee Avatar

      Have you checked for it? Mine was in the Skin Care aisle but it could also be in the travel section… if you can\’t find it drop me a DM on Facebook 😉

    Heartburn is the worst. I don't keep that type of medication in my purse bit I do keep it on hand at the house. Never know when it will strike.

    Don't forget to add mints. 🙂

    1. MrsTee Avatar

      Isn\’t it?? OMgoodness that could be the end to any great night but thank goodness I found Nexium as a solution. Oh yes!! Mints or gum are definitely on that essentials list 🙂

    What a fun post – sharing your date night and butterflies – along with your tips to help ensure everything goes perfectly! I do understand the butterflies even after years of marriage and no more kids at home. And yes chapstick is a good standby to keep ready all the time 🙂

    1. MrsTee Avatar

      Thanks so much Donna! Aaaah you give me hope that my butterflies never need to end. I think it\’s so awesome to still be in that level of love. Yes kissable lips are a must 🙂

    This is great. I'll be honest I've never really thought of date night essentials because our date nights are generally at home, but this is great. Reminds me I need new chapstick!

    1. MrsTee Avatar

      Thanks Jeanine! Even at home these are a few great items to have on hand to make sure the night is great from start to end…haha! Go grab that chapstick for sure 🙂

    These are some great items to carry. I am big on the chapstick and the Advil. I get headache's pretty easy so that is a must for me. Otherwise i'd be lost and unsure of what I should do. Headache's ruin everything for me. Now… I can't remember the last time I went on a date. =(

    1. MrsTee Avatar

      Headaches are horrible! They can suck the fun out of any great night so yes Advil is definitely a must! I hope you have a date night soon so you can be sure to have every essential you need 🙂

    I never leave home without the same exact things! I get heartburn from everything, so I always have some Nexium with me.

    1. MrsTee Avatar

      Haha!! Great minds think alike 🙂 I used to depend on sodas alone to help me but this is definitely a better more reliable solution…
