Poll: What do you and Fi do for fun?

What kind of activities do you and your fi do together (when you're not wedding planning of course!) that you love?? Did he get you into it, or how did you guys do it?

I'm bored... sorry I'm being a PW today :)

    Fun?  What's that?  Too busy lately. 

    Well, when we do have fun, we do dinner & a movie, we like to rent DVD's of great shows we haven't seen and watch them in marathons (we watched the entire series of The Wire and Six Feet Under, so good!), or go for a walk along the waterfront.

    Yeah, we're too busy right now too.  But we like dinner, DVD tv show marathons, mini-golf is awesome (we're super competitive at that, because he always beats me at everything else), hiking when the weather is good.

    We both love going to sporting events, golfing, anything in the water and travelling. We have very little time for any of these right now!

    1. The arts scene in Seattle! We are season subscribers to the 5th and the Seattle Symphony and sometimes see shows at the Paramount and the Rep. I got him into musicals and he got me into the symphony.

    2. The food scene in Seattle! We eat out (together) at least once per week - and he eats out at least 3 times. We never really go to the same place twice - there's too many great restaurants to check out! I'd say he got me into this - he's a bit more of a foodie than I am.

    3. Movie/TV night.  First of all, I don't know what we're going to do once Lost is over. Well, yes I do...that will turn into Glee night.  And we try to watch a Netflix movie at least once a week...although currently we're into the HBO series "Big Love." I definitely got him into this one!

    4. Going to the park or on a walk. We love to check out the parks in Seattle or just walk around Ballard - and bring our dog.

    5. Have game nights. We try and host a board game night every other week (or so). We cook dinner and have fun playing games and socializing with friends.

    Now that it's summer, we would love to hike, go camping, or go on weekend getaway trips every once in a while!

    I'm trying to be more active and thus trying to get FI more active with me - walking greenlake seems to be our new together thing.  We're aspiring foodies within budget, love movies - especially imax, DVD/TV/Netflix streaming, and cooking together.  He's a gamer and has gotten me into that a little too. 

    We're both too busy with grad school, work, and wedding for freetime.  Here's hoping we'll have more time this summer. :-)

    I like reading everbody's activities!  I have the urge to go mini-golfing now.

    We play video games together, be lazy and have recently been watching all the classic movies. We got a bunch of the Hitchcock ones and have been making our way through those.
    We have tv show marathons as well. Dog park with our pup and hiking when it's decent out.
    We also just like stretching out in bed and reading. Kind of nice being close, but doing something separate.

    We like to run together, we both signed up for a half marathon so we are training for that. We like going to the movies. We also like playing video games (the lego games are super fun to play two player) and we like to do puzzles. DH also likes to cook and I like to eat Smile

    We like taking our dog Lucy to the dog park when the weather is nice :o) And we like to go camping... possibly this weekend cause the weather is beautiful! FI has a motorcycle so sometimes we'll go for a ride on that (only when I'm not worrying about my hair getting messed up... lol!)

    We're definitely sports fans  - so we go to a ton of games together.  Usually Mariners games, UW games...anything.

    We also love going to different restaurants around seattle - but have cut back on that to save money and to try to lose weight!

    Since we haven't been going out as much as we used to - netflix has been our bestfriend.  I never was into The Office until i watched the first season and then got hooked. Also, we've been babysitting my niece and nephew a lot lately....which may be the reason why i DON'T  have baby fever right now (my niece and nephew are crazy!!) - but seeing my FI with them - I definitely know he'll make a great father one day!

    We go to sporting events - rather it's friends intermural games or Sounders games.  We also like dinner and movie.  Lately we have been going to the dog park each morning on the weekend.  We like playing games - board or video together.  We also like bonfires with friends.

    You mean before we became homeowners and had to plan a wedding? :)  Well, before the chaos, we used to go riding on his motorcycle to places.  Loved going to Alki with it - easier for parking.  We'd do extended getaways to places we could reach by car and ferry - Hood River, San Juan Islands, Victoria, Portland, etc.  We also used to go eat out a fair amount to various restaurants.  I want to take FI to El Gaucho for his bday next year actually.  It's been on the list for a while. :)  We'd go snowboarding in the winter.  Mariners games every once in a while.
