Hi R.:
Sounds like you got a couple great responses,for a girls night out.I thought I'd suggest a new idea my sister in-law came up with.I recieved an invitation for a (Girls Night IN)I thought "What the heck is that? Well, she invited all us moms,minus the kids,for sort of a slumber party for us moms! She had us bring our favorite PJs and a sleeping bag. Thats all we needed.She had a buffet type dinner,and after,we all made our own sundaes,with everything you could imagine!(nobody there to make you feel guilty) lol.She had card tables set up,and we all played this card game,(can't remember the name right now) We had a blast.We had a PJS fashion show, where each mom came down the stairs,and modeled her favorite PJS and we voted for our favorite pair!You had to be there it was so funny! We stayed up half the night sharing funny stories,and just acting silly.It took our minds off of the kids the hubbys,and a great time was had by all! So, if ever your looking to do something different,and want a chance to get all the moms close to you a little break away from all the action,This is something,they appreciate,and won't soon forget. Welcome back home to sunny, California. J.
