Sparklers Sweet16 is a set of monthly challenges to help 2016 be the SWEETEST year yet.
February's focus is on our relationships, with the challenge to help nurture and build our relationship with our partner!

We have set up a 2 week LOVE challenge.  With daily inspirations for you to do for or with your sweetheart! The daily challenges will focus on building your relationship and helping to show service and love for him.  (Some of the challenges could be tweaked to do for your kids, or yourself, if you don't have a sweetheart.)

You can do the LOVE challenge whenever you want, but we set it up to start February 1st and to run the two week course, ending on Valentine's Day.  We would love for you to join us, and let us know how you are accomplishing the daily goals.

Here are the daily challenges, that way you can plan ahead if you want to.

1. Write a handwritten letter of appreciation.  Get specific with what you appreciate about him.
2. Give him an after work massage.  Help him relax and seriously, who doesn't like massages!?
3.  Have fun together.  Part of a healthy relationship is to get silly every once in awhile.  Take funny selfies, draw a portrait of each other, give each other tattoos with permanent marker.  Get creative and get to laughing.
4.  Pack a favorite treat of his for him to take to work.  Men love treats!
5.  Make a musical playlist that is special to the two of you. Listen to it while doing chores together, taking a bath, relaxing at night, road trips, etc.
6.  Go on a Random Acts of Kindness date.  Serve your community together.  This will strengthen your love for each other and you will want to make this a regular date night.
7.  Go through old photographs of the two of you and make a scrapbook together, or frame some new pictures of the two of you.  Having displayed pictures of the two of you happy, will remind you daily why you married him!
8.  Go for a walk/drive and talk about your future and discuss your dreams.  Get excited about your life together!
9.  Make him his favorite meal.  If you have kids, maybe feed them first, so that he feels he gets all the attention.  Make him his favorite dessert while you're at it!
10.  Give him time to unwind by himself.  Spoil him by taking care of everything this evening so that he can just relax.  Believe me, he will appreciate this.
11.  Leave him a silly poem in his car, or put sticky notes all over the mirror or send him cute little texts all day.  Get cute and creative, let him know you are thinking of him.
12.  Re-live your first date.  This may take some planning and/or tweaking.  Have fun with this!
13.  Serve him!  Do a chore of his for him.  Love is service!
14.  Give him a big long kiss for no reason when he's not expecting it.  Maybe do this one everyday!
