However, the six of us "wild" moms left our own child behind with his/her daddy. We like to think of it as 'fostering some 1:1 time with Daddy'. Thanks to our better-halves for being indulgent and supportive on a much needed break away from the parenting routine. The boys had to options of doing their own thing with their own child OR head over to our good friends, Sherry & Oliver, for a "Daddy & Me Playgroup and Pizza Night". How nice is our playgroup?! That there is ALWAYS something going on for the kids no matter what!
So what did us girls do?
Day Spa
We met up at the local day spa for a fun "Margarita Night"! WhooHoo! Of course, we had TWO daddy's complaining "why were we NOT invited for spa, we could really use a facial?" (eh, you know you are: Oliver & Chhimi!) We started in the "Cat Lounge" for some simple gabbing and catch up as we await for our party to get started. Then we were led to our private 'Cabana Lounge' where the 6 of us got to sit in a tropical setting, served chips & salsa, non-alcoholic margaritas, and a lovely 30 minute foot soak while we gabbed some more!
For me being such a NON-girly girl, at first, I had NO idea about the foot soak and why even do it. It only seemed like a 'luke-warm' water and eh...not doing much. However, I must say, AFTER the soaking, my feet were just soooo soft and silky, I was like..."Aaah, okay, I get it now and I like it!"
Then one by one, our masseuse/facial therapist came in to begin our individual service. A couple of us got massages and the rest got facials! My experience was HEAVENLY...however, next time, I am definitely going for the 60 minute massage instead of the 30 minute teaser ;o). Totally LOVED IT and Relaxed!
Dinner & Game
Okay, found out one thing about a couple of our moms. TWO of them (Lynette & Kristy) are really into sports! Go Girls!! The Final Four for NCAA was going on...and Lynette had to...I mean really, HAD TO, watch the game no matter what, because her team is playing the "Heels", UNC-Chapel Hill vs Kansas. Kristy also had to watch it because well, UNC was part of her NCAA pool. LOL!
So off to a local "American Cooking" restaurant where they only had ONE TV in the place and it was at the bar. So the 6 roudy moms decided to disrupt the entire bar service and started pulling all 6 bar stools from every which corner so we can sit together! LOL!
We got to chat about lots of different topics including Sex, Money, Drugs...eh wait, that's an episode from "Real Housewives" NYC or Orange County ;o) HAHA! Let's just say we just talked and talked for the rest of the dinner, besides keeping scores of the NCAA game. We thoroughly enjoyed the company, the food, the atmosphere, and just being plain out and about with our girlfriends!
The night was really great. The only lowlight was the lost of UNC-Chapel Hill that totally bummed 2 of the moms! HUGS! They will do it NEXT YEAR!!!
Hopefully we'll get to do some more Girls Night Out in the future as well! Wanna join next time?!
