Wakeboarding is a little like water skiing, but you use a board instead of skis. Any couple who loves to spend time on the water or who likes excitement should give wakeboarding a try. The look on your spouse's face as the boat starts to go quickly in the water will be priceless. The faster the boat goes, the more exciting it will be for both of you. It's next to impossible not to feel excited when you hear your spouse yelling in excitement. You might end up fighting over who will go next since you'll both want to go again and again. You will want to save your wakeboarding date forever, and that's why you need to make sure to take some videos and still shots of all the excitement.

Every car gets dirty, and not everyone has the money to take it to the car wash. You might not like the idea of someone else fooling around with the inside of your car. Washing your car is the perfect outdoor activity for a married couple. Don't be surprised if tempers start to flare if it's a hot day, and you're both covered in suds. But don't get feisty, have a little fun, and get each other wet. Washing the car can be fun if you make it fun. It doesn't matter how clean the car gets, what's most important is that the two of you have fun.
Outdoors
A date first thing in the morning starts the day off right. If the two of you are early birds, then you're already awake when the sun comes up. If not, watching the sunrise might be even more special. Go out on the back porch or in the parking lot and watch the sun come up. Climbing a mountain or heading to the beach can make it even more beautiful. The best sunrise date is to eat breakfast in bed before or after the sun rises. One of you can treat the other and cook breakfast and enjoy the meal while lying in bed. Or if you're away from home why not turn it into a picnic? Don't forget to take some beautiful photos while you're at it.
Outdoors
Watching the sunset is a great way to relax and unwind after a busy day. There's something so romantic about watching the sun go down while darkness begins to blanket the area.

Talk about the things that make the other special or just hold each other. Use this as a brief moment to enjoy the beauty of Mother Nature and to allow yourselves to enjoy being alone.
Fun & Games
A water balloon fight is a perfect answer for a sweltering hot summer day. Fill up as many balloons as you can with water before going outside. Each of you should have the same amount of balloons to make the competition fair. You can either run around and try to hit each other with the balloons or let loose as soon as you get outside. Change your clothes, go barefoot, and enjoy drenching each other under the hot summer sun. You will yell and scream with excitement as you chase each other around, trying to burst as many balloons as possible.
Fun & Games
Water gun fights are a total blast on hot summer days. Load up your water gun and run around while squirting each other.

It's impossible to do anything other than smile and giggle while you're spraying the person you love with water. If you really want to have a wild time, use cold water and really douse each other during a hot day. It's even more fun if you play cops and robbers and try to hide from each other. An unsuspecting blast of water is an instant laugh fest when you've been caught while hiding.
