Valentine’s Weekend with Adventure Challenge

T

his pre-Valentine's weekend we decided to spice things up a bit. So my hubby and I set on completing a challenge from the Couples Edition of The Adventure Challenge and filmed it for our YouTube vlog.

The Adventure Challenge is a scratch-off book that comes in three editions: Family Edition, Couples Edition and In Bed Edition and it has 50 unique adventures in each. The fun part is that you don’t know what the adventure is until you scratch it off and read the instructions. The most important part: No take backs! Once it’s scratched off, you HAVE to do it. Our adventure this time was “Shape Thrifters” where we had to go to a thrift shop, buy second hand clothes for each other and go out together to eat a dessert or just watch a movie. Oh, and one more thing, we had to call each other the whole time by a made up name we each choose for the other. So I was no longer Eneida but Lola and for Dolsin I choose Mirush. Nice right?
So while we went out for our Saturday morning coffee at Mon Cherie, we also scratched off our challenge. After meeting with Mei, Doen’s little friend at the coffee shop we decided to go for a walk together and for a ride at the carousel located in the center of Tirana.
 
We then headed home to get ready for Noah Studio so we could get another memorable Valentine’s photoshoot as a family. We did the same scene when Doen, our girl, was little and we were super excited for the before and after.
 
Here are a few shots from the photoshoot:
Then we did another scene with a red background:
And since in the price were included three different scenes, Doen got dressed up as Masha and took some cute photos as Masha and the Bear. She was super excited and did not want to change back to her clothes. Here are the photos:
After the photoshoot we went to try a new restaurant which was suggested to us on Instagram: Pasta Mardre. They made fresh pasta and amazing pizzas. I definitely recommend this place. This is #notsponsored.
 
Doen fell asleep while eating so we headed home and took a nap ourselves. When we woke up it was 6.30 pm so we decided to stay at home and take a look at the photos from the studio.
 
The next day we thought to continue our challenge and headed towards the thrift shop. There we started fighting on what to choose and not to choose and we did not talk to each other for the rest of the day. Definitely not spicing things up. Hah..
 
On Monday, after some thinking we choose to leave it behind and continue because as the challenge says, there’s no taking back. Dolsin went and bought the clothes for us both and directly after work we headed towards Cineplexx Albania to watch a movie while Doen stayed home with her uncle. We actually ended up having a great time on our date and look forward to do it again. Why not, with our fictive names again. It was so fun to keep calling each other with the new names.
 
For all the above and more, take a look at our vlog below:
Wishing you love and couple fights that can easily be forgotten.. I mean until the next one 😛
