Girls Night Out

Every girl needs girlfriends and all girlfriends need a girls night out.  A night to get away from everything and have it just be about you and your friends.  After marriage and kids it also becomes a time when you get to be you and just you, the you that you remember.  Here is what I think that guys do not understand about girls night, other than being ourselves, it's about the entire time.  The drive, the chit chat, the girl talk, the relationship talk, the getting ready and listening to music (that does not include Old McDonald!).

A few weeks ago me and my best friend in Colorado decided it was time to get away for a night and be just us.  We decided we would head to Cheyenne and stay overnight.  They have a great a great country bar there and we went there about 4 years ago.  We got off work on Friday and grabbed a cooler of beer and off we went to Wyoming.  The number one reason that I love to go out with Brooke is that girls night is just that, girls night.  No matter if it's just us two or 10 girls there is one rule, there are no guys after the bar aloud.  After a night out it is back to the hotel for a last call and girl talk.  We checked into our hotel and unloaded our suitcases, silly for just one night, but so much fun to go through each other's things.  We had a few beers and took about 2 hours to get ready.  We grabbed a cab and off we went.  We stayed at the country bar for a few hours.  We had a few great country dancers swing us around the floor, which was so much fun.  At 12:30 we called a cab and grabbed some fast food and back to the hotel.  We stayed up for probably another hour and crashed.  What an awesome time.  We got up in the morning and went out for a nice breakfast and headed home to our families.  I love this time with friends and cherish every minute that I get it now because it's so important to never forget who you are!
