Girly Girls

It has been a looonnnggg time since the girls and I have been able to get together and enjoy time as best friends. Amy, Ginger, Allyson, and myself started the day out shopping. Jenny met up with us a little later.....(we missed you!) We were all looking for things like Easter outfits, shoes, jewelry, stuff for the kids, and anything else we thought we just couldn't live without. At 5pm Ginger and I had makeover appointments at the MAC counter. Amy and Ally finished shopping and met us there.
Here we are being "beautified". Sometimes, it's just a sweet treat to have someone else do your makeup, share tips, and walk away feeling pretty! I must say, I had the best false lashes on that evening....though they took some getting used to!

We all kept laughing because the MAC makeup artists asked us where we were headed for the evening, and when we told them we were just going to dinner when we left the mall, and they just looked at us kind of funny. Hey, a wild and crazy night for us moms sometimes just involves eating an entire meal without the kiddies! When we left the mall, we made our way to Cappacino's to meet up with Jenny for dinner. We were all starving, because it was 8:15, and we laughed again because we're all used to eating around 5:30 or so with our families. I know, we were really livin' on the edge!! We had a fabulous dinner complete with a fabulous dessert. We all laughed and giggled until our sides hurt, and my eyelashes were sticking together because my eyes were watering from all my laughing!!! We had a hoot, and can't wait for the opportunity to do it again.....hopefully sooner than later! I love you gals!

Rockin' into the night....

Friday night we headed over to Scott and Renee Graham's house for some fun and fellowship with them and the Campbell family. The Pritchard's had to cancel because baby Evan was running a fever....poor Evan. We missed them being there!


Our boys have been looking forward to this night all week! They love playing with Cameron, Conner, and Clayton! The 12 of us devoured an entire medium sized Chick-Fil-A nugget tray and 2 trays of loaded cheese fries! Yummmmm!!! We also gorged on Amy's oooey-gooey chocolate butter cake, and my german chocolate upside down cake! Talk about sugar overload!!! But we needed our energy for playing Rock Band!!! The kids played all over the house while the adults pretended to be rock stars! It was soooo funny!!! We each took a turn at every instrument and vocals! It was a hoot! We absolutely love hangin' out with our friends! We laughed, reminisced, and had a great time! Terry decided that if he had a "Rock Band" at his house, he'd never leave! That's probably why we don't have one either! It is lots of fun though! Thanks Scott and Renee for having us over! We had a blast!!

Woo Hoo!!
