Marriage and dating advice isn't something I write about too often in this space, but I hope you'll enjoy this little departure from the norm today. 

I believe that regular date nights with my spouse are an important way to keep the spark alive.  

I recently asked a question on my Facebook wall.  It was something like, "Help!  My husband and I are stuck in a rut for date night.  Anyone have some fun ideas on what to do?"

Well...I have some amazing, fun, and creative friends!  They really came through on that question, sharing so many great ideas that I couldn't help but think of compiling their advice and sharing it here.

The credit goes to my friends.  Here are 40 creative ideas for how to have an awesome date night.  I'm excited to start working my way through the list.  I hope you find some inspiration here as well!
