So I stole this from my sister. I thought it was super CUTE!
This gift is called "The Date Basket"
The idea of it is to have pre-paid or easy to
pay for dates pre-packaged in envelopes,
then labeled for every month :)
So at the beginning of each month,
Nate will open the envelope for
that month then we will choose
a day for that date night.
Each envelope has a cute little card
explaining the date as well as the
gift cards to pay for the date :)
Here are my list of dates to give you
some ideas
