My neighbor friend walked over to my house so we could ride together. She walked in and Oh. My. God. We were dressed pretty much the same. SEQUINS! It was a little embarrassing but had no impact on our couple hours of girl time. We had the best time. My other friend drove from another city (Hi Jill!) and met us there. She was less flashy, sans sequins. We joked about the fact that my neighbor and I were dressed alike. Her reply was fantastic!
"That's what happens when you are a stay at home Mom and you get out...you wear sequins!"
Unfortunately I don't have a picture of the three of us, just my neighbor and I.
Since Jill met us there I had already had two sips of wine by the time she got there and my brain had stopped functioning and I didn't take a single picture. Total lite-weight, make that feather-weight. We were home by 8pm and back to our kiddos. It was a perfect night out.
As much as I love being with my kids, being out with the girls was so great and reassured me that I still am more than a stay at home mom. I am multi-faceted just like the L'Oreal commercial.

I know exactly how you feel. And you guys looked great! By the way I love your haircut. I am glad you had a good time. Makes me think I should go out for a night with the girls.
FUN!
Love the trees on your street!
You crack my ass up!!!!
Oh... And you look great!!! :o)
Ah, yes, the girls night out is life affirming in more ways than it probably should be for me, too! I am lucky enough to get out with my good friend once a month, and oddly, we tend to dress similarly as well!
You girls are lovely.
So is your yard and street.
And I am so jealous. I never seem to get out for a girls day.
You look HOT! Isn't it fun to dress up? My husband's group has been interviewing new candidates, and since we are one of the younger couples, we have been going to the interview dinners. It has been so much fun to get all fancy. I even wore sequins a few weeks ago!
you both look great. :) glad you had a fun, sparkly evening out. :)

oh, you guys look great! I need to get out, it's been like two years from the last time I went out with the girls....sad, I know. But it sounds like you guys had a ton of fun!
You guys look great! Glad you had a fun night.
Is it possible that since I have been gone you got hotter?
Ashley! Thank You! Wanna make out? I love you that much.
Tee hee! That's too cute! You girls look AWESOME! LOVE the sequins comment! Man, Harper and Mason are so lucky they've got such a fun, funny, cool, hip, caring, smart, hot mom!
I've been reading your blog for a few months now and, for whatever reason, am finally commenting. Of course, it could be a green eyed monster thing forcing me to comment bc I'm jealous of your night out. (How sad is it that even on a "night out" we still come home early to put the kids to bed? lol)
BTW, not only do you and your friend's sequins match, you guys could definitely pass for being related.
