I am very lucky to have a husband who understands I need a night out. Weekly I can count on one night to get out and have a break. It's usually my sister in law Lisa, and my two sisters Holly and Diana. We do a variety of things but it always includes dinner and a movie. I seriously see movies almost once a week, crazy huh. We always DO very late movies so we have much time out as possible.
This past week Alan has been out of town (on a cruise vacation) and I have been home doing all the cooking, cleaning, driving, doctoring, and some fighting with my kids alone. I could never be a single Mom. I also missed getting any sort of break so here's to weekly girls night out. It just makes life SO much better. Thank you Alan for this break! I love you!
Here are pics from last week (my little sis was missing)
Here is a picture from his cruise. We believe in equal time around here so I see a girls vacation coming on soon!
They dressed up in the funniest cruise gear they could find ( I can barely recognize a few). This is a group of Alan's best friends who he grew up with. Married w/ kids they have all remained friends. Believe me I am glad I wasn't there.

Boy, those guys look pretty darn cool. Wish Matt could have gotten off work to go with them. I bet they've had the time of their lives! (At least nobody got arrested...)
What a fun tradition for you and your sister and friends. It's nice to get out and have soem adult conversation for sure. It looks like your dh is having a fun time as well but I hear ya on being a single mom. My dh was gone for 3 months and it was very hard.
Hi there. Came over from Angie's ww. That's awesome you guys do that. I get a solo night each week but don't have a girls night out like I wish I would. BUt it is still nice to have that time. Great pics of you ladies!!!
wow - you are so lucky -my hubs would NEVER agree to anything like this
Wow, he went on a cruise without you? That is so wrong. ;) I think he should send you to a spa for a week...and me too...you know, if I'm dreaming! :)
Youre all so pretty!
Your hubby is a brave man to let you girls go out and play for a week...
Hope you had fun!

Wow that cruise picture makes me feel like I just traveled back in time about 18 years!!! Too funny. Am I really that old?
So glad you get that night a week. And congrats on surviving the week home alone. you are one busy woman!
What a great WW post! So fun that you both get regularly scheduled nights/vactions out. The cruise picture is hysterical!
GOOD FOR YOU GUYS FOR ALLOWING EACH OTHER TIME WITH YOUR FRIENDS. IS ALAN AWARE YOU POSTED THIS FUNNY PICTURE OF HIM ON YOUR BLOG?!?! :)
♥ Very nice! Yay for girls night and How fun for him to go on a cruise with his buddies!!! :)
Yay for you! I wish I was as lucky!
I get one every once and a blue moon. You are really lucky.
I think it's great you get out that often- it's something every mom should do for herself!
That's cool that you go out so often with the girls. I have a movie night with some neighbors once or twice a month. And I get to see my sisters quite often (with kids, though.) My hubby is good to give me a break when I need it:)
I love your shirt in the picture, by the way. Can I ask where you got it?
I SO wish I could have a girls' night with my sister - wouldn't work though - we're too far away! That is awesome for you! My husband has his night every week, then a guitar lesson another night(which I still consider a night away!)...I think I need to start going one night/week. Even if it's just for coffee somewhere...ALONE!
I have been lucky enough to have a marriage where we can have our time away too. Looks like you both come out winners on that deal!
I don't realize how much help Ryan really is emotionally until he is gone in the evening. I don't think I could be a single parent either. I'm glad you get out as much as you do. Every good mom deserves a little girl time.
I am glad that you got a night to yourself! Looks like a vacation maybe in your near future, that's a good thing!
I think it's great that you guys support each other in this way....looks like a fun time!!! And your girl nights? Lucky!!!
GNO is very needed!
Amazing that they are all still friends! Yeah, I'm thinking you need a girls cruise! THAT would be very cool!
Just wanted to add my thanks to Laura's. Thank you so much Alan! I love Girls Night and we couldn't do it with you.
Tha cruise picture is hilarious!
Yeah, you have a great catch in tha husband of yours letting you escape once a week!
And I agree with Jaime. You need to start posting where you buy your ( and the other sisters) outfits from and help us fashion challenged moms out there!
