Art Gallery

So you have to know that I am the most thrifty girl ever. Our dates don't usually cost much money and they are usually dates at home after the kiddo's are asleep in bed so that I don't have to pay a sitter :) Though I do splurge when occasion calls for it.

This last weekend we "Visited" an art gallery.
We started with Eight blank pieces of paper each titled something different having to do with our relationship. Some examples... Our love, First night, Eight years, Without you.
We set up an art studio ( table, chairs, art supplies) We divided the table in half so that we could not see each others art work. We each chose a paper with title randomly from a pile and had to draw, paint, color a picture for that title. This could last a while or be real quick depending on your love of creating. My hubby is the real quick type. After we had created the art we hung it around the room. We got out our wine and cheese you can't stroll a gallery without them :) We don't drink however so we had sparkling cider and added crackers to our cheese. We ate our treat and drank from fancy glassed as we strolled around interpreting and then explaining our art to each other. It was really fun to see what each of us had come up with.
