Mommies Gone Wild

Two weeks ago, 4 of my friends and I took off for "Mommy School" aka Hearts at Home, that we will talk about tomorrow. But first let me tell you, it is a rare occasion that moms get away from their kids and husbands overnight, even more rare to do it with friends. On a late Thursday afternoon we headed out, 5 women, in a minivan, to a mom conference. The conference started Friday morning so Thursday night was ours to have! We drove the whole 45 minutes, yeah I know we went really far, to the next town over. Upon arriving our evening consisted of checking into our hotel, going to dinner, a trip to Walmart, and ending back in our hotel for junk food, adult beverages (not enough to get excited about), tv watching, toe nail painting, internet surfing, and bed by midnight. We are a wild bunch, I know. Nevertheless it was fun. We enjoyed our time together and our "break" from our families, making us eager to get back to them the next night.
