How do you and your husband/wife spend quality time together? And... How do you and your husband/wife spend time with God together?

My husband and I do just about everything that's not work related together. We go to the store, doctor's appointments, movies, watch tv at home snuggled in bed, walk every evening for ~30 mins. To me it's all quality time. [:D] My favorite qt is our walks and watching movies while we snuggle. Also, I really enjoy it when we go out on a date to the movies or out to eat but that's not something we do quite as often. We spend time in prayer together each evening, we attend church together and we talk about spiritual matters (i.e. each other's growth in their walk with Christ, things that God is teaching us, discussion/debate on different spiritual issues).

Question #2 - we both go to church together - we rarely miss a Sunday - our pastor is a very good leader/teacher of the Bible and the truth. We also take turns with prayers before meals and we are involved in Small Group studies at our church. Question #1 - all our time is quality time together. We enjoy a lot of things together; fishing, outdoors hiking, etc. Like a lot of the same movies, just are very happy being together. Since we both came from bad first marriages, we treat the time we have together very special - even when we are doing the dishes after supper - we don't own a dishwasher, we do them together :)

Q#1 We do everything but work together. We go hunting, fishing, birthday parties, snuggle on the couch, swim - anything and everything we do together and I consider it quality time since we take the time to actually listen to each other and recognize the other is in our presence. Q#2 We go to Sunday school together, church together, we teach Wednesday night church to the community children together. We do our Bible College Study together and do our homework for it together. We haven't moved to praying with each other every night yet but we do some nights when he is home before midnight.

We both love playing board games and laughing (youtube clips, America's Funniest Videos, engrish.com, etc) so we often spend most of our quality time together doing said things. Unfortunately, we haven't been making the time for fellowship with the Lord as we should, but in the past we have prayed together and have read books/devos together.

We genuinely enjoy each other's company, so we do things that allow us to interact-- which is a broad category. I especially liked it when we'd go driving in the country with no particular agenda. (Gas is too expensive to do that much anymore.) I wish I could say that we spend time together with the Lord. We are working on being better at that. What we end up doing is spending quiet time, then getting together to talk about what we are studying. What I must stress is that this is a HUGE step from where we started. I used to suspect that he only went to church for me and that is a very lonely feeling. I now can see that he is developing a true and deep relationship with God and it is a blessing to me. The rest will come.
