Girls Night Out (or in)

Our neighborhood started hosting a "Girls Night Out" every month. Someone in the neighborhood hosts it and we all come over. Nothing is too structured or planned. But it usually does involve food and visiting. May was my month to host, so it was my "Girls Night In" instead of "Out" that month. It turned out to be a night to remember.

When the night begins with this, how can it go wrong?  This is our fearless leader, Janae, that started this tradition about six months ago.

And who would not LOVE these sweet gals.  Sue, Susan & Leona! You ladies left way too early.  The fun had just begun.

The central theme was chocolate because it was at my house and I could pick the theme and I love chocolate even if I am on a diet. Nothing can go wrong if there is a chocolate fountain in the middle of the table.  Angie, Joell, Aubrie, and Laurel were relaxing before things got truly out of hand.

Angie was showing us how much fun she is having!  Thanks for coming Angie! Good thing Melissa didn't have to catch her!

By this point a few of us were getting "drunk" on chocolate.  Susan, Kristen, Janae, Julie, Steacey, and Cheryl had all migrated to the table.  Notice we gave up on the fountain and took it apart so you could really get to the chocolate.

4 pounds of chocolate, 3 hours, 15 women later we had a BLAST! Angela, Aubrie, Joell, Laurel, Susan, Kristen, Julie and Steacey.  It may look calm and relaxing, but I haven't laughed that hard for that long since college.  Rumor has it you could hear us half way down the block.

Thanks ladies for making my night!  Have fun without me in June and hopefully I'll be able to join you again in July! Anyone in the neighborhood is welcome, so make sure you don't miss one of these fun nights.
