I’m sad I didnt’ celebrate. My day was so hectic yesterday. I came home and crashed. I hope everyone had a wonderful Moms Nite Out!
I want to enter the party
Well, I am celebrating two days late with a Girl’s night out with the ladies from my husband’s unit. We’re going to a great Italian place for dinner. Earlier in the day I am getting a free hot stone massage that I won from our local military newspaper. 🙂 So, Mom’s night out a day late but Mom’s day early. I can live with that. 🙂
I’m late too. I just found out about it. Maybe next time.
Oh, I’m late too!
Dang im too late.. sigh :((
I got here so late… But it’s so much fun on twitter!
Stacie, you’re right about this being the treasure chest to finding great women to follow!
I’m not sure how I did not even see that this was part of winning. Geez!! haha
Well, even if I don’t win – I think I hit the treasure chest of great women to follow on Twitter.
Happy Mother’s Day …
