Take a breather


31 Days of Love Challenge
 
I hope you all understood the significance of yesterday's challenge and notice how it is not the same as one of the past ones where I asked you to let him enjoy his hobby alone or with friends...in this one, you actually get to get in on the fun with him! (: Today is Friday. The end of a long week! And to celebrate and get ready for the weekend, I have today's challenge!

Day Nineteen
 
Massage/bath/intimate time. What better way to relax than by giving each other a massage, then enjoy a nice bath with lukewarm water, some fragrant bubbles, and some romantic candles? Nothing in my opinion lol...and who knows? That might lead to an even happier night! ;)
 
 
So stock up on the massage oil, bubbles, and candles! You might want to text your man and let him know you have a surprise in stock for him ;) Tell him it's time for him to relax and forget about work. Let him know you will always be there for him to unwind and let go of worries...at least for those couple of hours. If you have kids who are old enough, you might give them an activity for them to do. Or do this after they go to sleep...or put a children's movie for them!
Well hope you guys have a fantastic Friday! I really appreciate you guys joining me in this challenge! At the end I will share what I've learned! Yall know where to reach me, comment below, email me at wife.nextdoor@yahoo.com or tweet me!

Once a month...



 31 Days of Love Challenge

 
Well I hope everyone had a great date night! If you postponed it, I wish you an amazing time on your next one (:   Like I mentioned, we went to Red Lobster...and of course...instead of getting seafood the ONLY time we go to a seafood restaurant, I got chicken...and totally regretted it. At least that infused strawberry margarita made up for it lol =P

Day Thirteen 
 
Recommend a monthly date. You can do so by reminding your man how great the night went and how happy it makes you to be out with him in an intimate setting. Tell him how much it's needed to be out as a couple at least once a month...it'll do your relationship good! It's just like a car you know, it needs maintenance, check ups, so on...and so do our relationships. 
 
 
 If your man refuses to go out with you it's okay, you can still have your couple time with monthly home dates...just be sure to make it fancy by both of you dressing up, candles, and a great meal! This monthly date should not be taken lightly as a casual event even if you stay home because we hang out with our men everyday casually. It's nice to get dressed up every once in a while and enjoy your partner in that romantic way.
 
 
I am dead serious. If there is ONE thing I recommend couples to do is go on a date at least ONCE a month! We do it every anniversary day...we have since we starting our relationship 3 1/2yrs ago actually. Well that's today's challenge!

Gotta get down on Friday!


31 Days of Love Challenge
 
I think we can all compliment our men everyday physically. It'll make him feel sexier and manlier. Today, since it's Friday, (finally!) I think it's a great night for a date night out on the town! If you already had dinner in mind or this is last minute, you can always try this one tomorrow (: Sometimes I feel like I should let yall know what's coming ahead of time, but then I'd be giving the challenge away a day early lol...well on to the exciting part of the date night...

Day Twelve

Get ready for date night in different rooms or even better, different place (: This challenge is great specially for the couples that have been living together for a while. It'll make it feel like back in the day when you guys were just dating...the butterflies from the anticipation...you don't know what either of you is wearing and he gets to "pick you up". How sweet is this?!


 We will get ready in different rooms, since luckily we have guest bathroom/bedroom and we don't have family/friends in this town. If we were in my hometown maybe I'd go to my mom's and get ready there =P ...oh the memories! Seems like just yesterday we'd spend hours talking on that bench in my parent's front porch delaying J's departure. Remember, just cause it's "date night" doesn't mean you have to go to a super fancy place...we are in fact going to Red Lobster, yay 4 course meal for only $14.99 #loveit


Well I hope this challenge brings a little spark back and reminds you of why and how you fell in love in the first place...don't forget to flirt with you man! You are on a date after all and these things shouldn't stop because we are married! Well there's today's challenge!

He's your magnet

31 Days of Love Challenge
 
Well I really hope your man noticed the favor you did him yesterday =P Hey who knows, it could lead to better things! Today we have a very very easy challenge...here it goes...

Day Eleven

Appreciate his physical attributes/compliment him on his looks! You know...what things attracted you to him? His hazel eyes? His strong arms? You love his butt? Maybe the way he looks in the shower ;P anything goes! I personally cannot get over J's butt hehe...he played soccer sports in hs and continued soccer later and let's just say it did his derriere a favor...#confession: sometimes I might even be jealous thinking his looks better than mine ((:


Okay...well as his partner I am guessing you have many many things to choose from...you might even expand and say I love how big your arms are/how strong you are because then you can help me when I can't open x jar lol he'll feel like such a superhero and he'll also feel sexy. Who knows, he might even reciprocate and tell you how he still loves your smile, your sensual legs, whatever drives him crazy!


 See, told ya it was an easy one! I hope it leads you to a better day, just small things like these can make the difference in the mood/attitude of the evening. So that's today's challenge! Well yall know where to reach me, comment below, email me at wife.nextdoor@yahoo.com or tweet me!

Sweet or Sexy?


31 Days of Love Challenge
 
I just love it when my husband arrives after his long day at work and tells me how wonderful it smells...from my cooking...as a housewife, there is nothing better! It's the least I can do after being soo spoiled!

Day Nine

Call or Text him something sweet or sexy ;) This is an easy one that doesn't take much time, but it still makes a difference!

Tell him how much you miss him or how he makes you feel! I'm going to text J how he's the best husband, more than I ever wished for and thank him for always giving me my goodbye kiss even when I'm still asleep. I love that little show of affection and I will certainly let him know. I might even add a cute pic...DO IT! It's sooo easy! Either with your mobile internet or from your computer, get it on your phone and add it. I will also send J this cute owl message. 


Now if you want to lean on the seductive side...you can send him a pic of your favorite lingerie or tell him how much you are "craving him" this moment lol...it'll make him want you when he comes home knowing you were thinking of him in that way while he was gone and couldn't do anything about it...he'll definitely be looking forward to it...hmm maybe I'll go with provocative text too ;P


I really hope your man reacts with your text which he should, but you never know...don't feel discouraged if he doesn't...everyone has bad days and if today is his bad day we certainly won't make it better if we nag about his unresponsiveness. Maybe ask if he noticed the text and see where it goes from there.

Well have fun with this challenge! Yall know where to reach me, comment below, email me at wife.nextdoor@yahoo.com or tweet me!

Yummy!

31 Days of Love Challenge
 
I loved yesterday's challenge because it was about building up our significant other. This bible verse reminds me of it "so encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing." 1 Thessalonians 5:11. I actually consider myself quite spiritual but do not put much of it on the blog because I understand not everyone is in the same boat, and that's life, so it's okay.

Day Eight

Serve his favorite meal. Come on! You know what he loves! ;)

Everyday is a great day to cook for your man but it takes a considerate wife to make his favorite meal at least once a week! Lol well at least that's what I aim for, and there is no day he will deny it! A man will not get tired of his favorite meal once I week, I can guarantee you that. You can even take the initiative to make it better than usual by transforming the atmosphere again like on our Friday night (: Serve a glass of wine, put nice music, some flowers, candles...you may think those details are more for our pleasure only, but he will feel the difference too. If you make your man feel like a king, he will start treating you like a queen!


J's favorite meal is actually one we discovered by looking up recipes! Nothing his mom made him before or anything my mom taught me, so I suggest looking up recipes of things your man likes like chicken, or crunchy meals, or spicy foods. That's exactly how we found it, he liked specific breadcrumbs and so I looked up a recipe with it and got it! Yum!

Well I hope tonight's challenge turns out to be a slight change to the usual Monday routine. Mondays can be a drag, specially if your man is off on the weekends, but you will certainly make his day and your relationship better by making his beloved plate!

Let's make up



31 Days of Love Challenge
I hope my followers forgive me for not blogging yesterday...my reason was I was planning our 4th of July party and let me just tell you all that it was a success! (: 
Now to make it up, I am posting both day challenges today considering yesterday's was fairly easy! Hope everyone had an amazing Independence Day celebration as well!

Day Four/Five



Thank him for all he does. Did he do something nice for you lately? Thank him for it. Did he do something you told him to do? Thank him for it. Has he not done anything extraordinary lately? Just thank him for supporting you or being your partner. The more you show appreciation, even for little things, the more he will WANT to do for you lol. Men love praise!


Plan a stay at home date. What's better than a stay at home date on a Friday night? ...especially when it's raining! This is YOUR chance to bring romance in the house! Cook something nice, or you can even get takeout but make it romantic with a few candles and some flowers! They really do bring ambiance. Dress up in a pretty dress, heels and your pearls...he will be surprised in a good way, to say the least! Play romantic music...watch a movie later? It can just end with dinner if you have a busy husband but I swear it will be a nice bonding moment.


 Well I know we can do these two things today and maybe if you want you might want to make it a part of your life more often! I know I will try to do Day Four challenge everyday from now on. Make me proud ladies!
