Girl's Night Out Was A Huge Hit!

Well, I can definitely say my "Girl's" Night Out was great! I forgot my camera (a huge mistake for a professional blogger..as I like to think of myself), but some of my blogger sisters remembered theirs. Therefore, you can refer to their blogs if you would like to view some pics. Me, Emily, Allie, and Alicia met up with Carol, Stephanie, and Leslie and started our great night out by having dinner at Buckhead. We enjoyed each others company and then headed over to the movie theatre to catch a great movie, Bride Wars. So, for everyone that has emailed me or asked for a review, in my book it is a must see! However, I don't think it is a movie to go see with you husband or significant other, but definitely a movie to catch with girlfriends. After laughing lots and some even crying, we finished the movie and decided to head home. One back set! My keys were no where to be found, and I was the driver. After panicking and going to every counter in the movie theatre, some one had found them in the bathroom and turned them in. Thank Goodness! They must have fallen out of my purse when I went to the bathroom before the movie started. After we got in the car and looked at the clock, we decided we still had a little time to spend together, so me, Allie, Emily, and Alicia headed to Starbucks to grab some coffee and hot chocolate. Emily had never been into Starbucks because she is not a coffee drinker, but I think we have her converted to a Starbucks hot chocolate drinker now. We laughed some more, and some more, and some more, and then we decided to call it a night. On the way home we decided that we would make this a monthly ritual. We already have the next movie in mind for February, "Confessions Of A Shopaholic," most of all because we can all relate to that term very well. Makes me think back to when Kyle and I first got married and I used to leave the bags in the car until he was gone because I didn't want him to know how much I spent! Boy has that changed! He might still complain a little, but he knows it doesn't do any good. Shopping is just an addiction that I can't seem to kick. However, I must say that I am a bargain hunter, and nothing makes me feel any better than to find a good deal! This was only the second time I had been out with friends since Hannah was born, but I really enjoyed myself. I used to always feel so guilty for leaving my sweet girls anytime at all, but Kyle has really encouraged me to spend time with friends and do things for myself too. He told me that he wants me to plan something once a month and he will more than gladly fill his "daddy" responsibilities. They spent time with Grandmother and Papa listening to Hallie sing on the karaoke machine and watching Hannah try her best to sing too. Thanks girls for a great night out! I am looking forward to our next adventure. I still think we need to have A BLOGGER BUDDIES NIGHT OUT TOO!

I agree-a night out with my blogger friends! That would be so much fun...
You and I would be dangerous together shopping! I bid on some dresses from the lady you told me about on Ebay. I usually do carouselwear -she is a good seller for smocked dresses too.
We need to get the girls together to play soon.

We did have a great time. I have laughed over and over again about my crying frenzy! Can't wait 'til next month. I've never been to Starbucks either, so you'll have to take me soon!

Lesley said...

I just can't believe that Stephanie didn't find the keys during one of her 8 trips during the movie to the bathroom!

Sounds like you all had so much fun. Carol told me about her crying spell. I'm not a coffee drinker either but Starbucks Caramel apple cider is to die for. Glad you all had fun, let me know if you get a bloggers night together.

Heather said...

Carol's going to have to post what this crying spell was all about! Sounds like a fun time. I am actually working on one of these nights myself. Glad you found your keys! That sounds just like something I would do:)

A blogger buddies night sounds wonderful. It's been two YEARS since my last girls' night out--yikes! I'm so glad you all had such a great time, and you found your keys.

Don't you just love a girl's night out? I saw it last weekend and also had a hot chocolate from Starbucks(and I had to go back the very next morning for another hot choc). I'm glad you guys had fun. It is so nice to have time with friends.
