The house is empty; now is the perfect time to spice up your marriage!  It's never too late to reconnect and reclaim that same spark, excitement, and creativity you experienced before you had kids.  26% of Empty Nesters say they will feel like newlyweds when their kids are gone and even more (34%) say they will feel closer to their spouse without the children around. Those statistics aren't too shabby, but let's see if we can raise them a little higher and add some spice to our marriages!

Here are 3 ways to keep your marriage fresh and exciting:  


  1. Learn Together.  Find something new to enjoy together.  It's good to have fresh and new experiences you can both talk & laugh about.  Whether it's dancing, painting, or cooking classes, have fun learning something new together.  
  2. Get Active.  Who says exercise has to be a solo gig?  There's something special about exercising together.  Get your heart rates up and get your bodies moving.  Maybe you can find a new trail to hike together to take in some new scenery, get your heart rates up, and breathe in fresh air.  Not only will you be invigorated by taking in a new experience, but the endorphins from a good workout will enhance it.  My husband and I really enjoy doing Country Heat workouts together--it's new, fun, and good for our bodies.  
  3. Take Turns.  Planning date nights doesn't need to be a solo mission either.  Take turns planning your date night experiences. You won't just share the responsibility of researching, planning and organizing the evening, you may also find yourselves in a fun competition trying plan the most creative and fun outings.

If you're looking for more ideas on how to keep your marriage fresh & exciting, I recommend checking out 10 Great Dates for Empty Nesters.  This book offers ten innovative, fun dates guaranteed to spice up your marriage.  The dates are specially crafted for empty-nesters, these dates are based on marriage-enriching themes, such as • Becoming a couple again • Rediscovering intimate talk • Revitalizing your love life • Growing together spiritually • Relating to adult children • Becoming best friends.
