This is something my husband and i have struggled with as well. We have found getting the television set out of the way really helps. We currently have it in the garage. When we feel like we can try again, we bring it back in. And when it becomes too much, we put it back in the garage.
I think the key is trying to find activities that you all enjoy doing. We have small kids so that can be a challenge, but we have found the park to be a great activity for us. We also do a lot of reading together which can be hard with small children, but we persist anyway. Just start trying things together and see where it leads you.
Some further ideas: swimming, camping, sports, sledding or snowball fights in the winter, taking walks together, cleaning together, cooking, crafts, singing, start a band and all learn to play a different instrument, fly kites, build things, the sky is the limit!! unless you want to take up space travel, lol
