Our New Ladies Night Out

As a mom, ladies night out now takes on a new meaning for me. Last night, our Bunko group headed to PF Changs to work out the details for the upcoming year. We decided that several of us would meet up and ride together to eat so we all jumped in Catherine's van. Well, this is how it worked....(see photos). Are you laughing yet? Yes, two of us are in the back, back seat, I am holding a lamp, a baby is in the middle row and an empty car seat is occupying the other seat. The other picture is of Caroline, Catherine's little girl (she joined us for our Bunko dinner), Amy and Catherine. Yes my friends, this is the road motherhood has taken us down. Our friend, Mandy, got in the car and was shocked. You see, she only has one child and is a very organized person. Catherine and I on the other hand have two children and have cars that are full of who only knows what (for example, the lamp I am holding & the matching mirror I put in the back so Mandy & I could sit down). So, I leave you with this....ladies night out will never be the same for me. Fun, yes, but once a Mom and out with my Mom-friends, Always a Mom----and I love it! BTW, I have such a fun Bunko group and I didn't get a pic of everyone there, but several of us blog...check them out: Anna, Mandy, Catherine, Amber (but her blog is private), & Kristi (but she moved, but we are still going to include her as an honorary member!).

We need to get all of our fun Bunko friends blogging so I'll work on that this year. Just thought all of the mother's out there would get a kick out of the pictures of all of us taking a ride in the mini-van (& if we had been in my car, I would refer to it as the 'bus')....FUN TIMES!
