On Monday, Jan. 12, we had our first mommies night out of 2009, and it was a blast! Our mommies nights started about a year ago and came about as a result of having our husbands playing football every Thursday nights and then again on Saturdays to participate in the Maui county flag football league. We, the wives, decided that we deserved a night out and although it wouldn't be every week, we'd try to do it once a month. Last year, our mommies nights out were super fun and helped us all to form really good friendships. We've been able to celebrate birthdays, pregnancies, school and just about everything together. We've also been able to help and support one another as we've faced trials throughout the year. Our mommies night out has allowed us to be free of the kids and the husbands for a few hours and enjoy being in the company of good friends. These nights are always filled with laughter, fun, and wonderful memories.
This past Monday was no different. Elyce hosted it and it was themed as our "Spa Night." Kawai gave facials, Lahela did foot massages, Rosie did pedicures, and Jayde did the nails. Keeping in tune with our "Spa" theme, Elyce and I decided that we should try and keep it healthy so we had a menu that consisted of chicken and grape croissaints, chicken caesar salad, fruits and dips, and delicious fruit smoothies. The food was delicious and the ladies were all relaxed and beautified. The nails came out awesome, so thank you Jayde! And, of course stories and laughter filled Elyce's house. It was definitely a fun night! We were however, missing Miss Shaela and she was definitely in our thoughts. Don't worry girl, Elyce said we'll do it all again when you and baby get back to Maui. I'm sure all the ladies would be down for that.
So ladies, I look forward to our next mommies night out. Being that at least half of us are stay at home moms, we thrive for these nights and are anxious for the few hours away from the kids. So, whatever it may be that we plan for our next night, I'm sure it will be great because we'll be in the company of good friends. Thanks again ladies, I can't wait 'til our next night out!
