Just the Girls

Some men play golf........some play cards...........some hunt/fish............some watch football. But, no matter their choice of release, they all seem to have one. (I am grateful that my hubby's not too obsessed with any of these and spends most, if not all, of his free time with his family----don't feel sorry for him, he does get out some :) But in most cases, it seems as if women are less involved with hobbies that allow them to get out of the house.

Thus, we began playing Bunko-------because every girl needs a night off every now and then...right? We play once a month and leave the daddies in charge of the kiddies. Sometimes, Jeremy will try to get in a little "guy time" by making a play date with Sam Haynie or Hunter Jordan, but most of the time he is on his own.

We have a great time together----mostly swapping stories about our kids and our hubbies. It is nice to have support from other women who are experiencing the same daily struggles of juggling babies, housework, hubby time, etc. We always joke that we should forgo the game and just chat, but for some reason, we keep on playing.

This is our group....minus me (who was obviously taking the picture). Top row: Melissa, Michelle, Autumn, Michelle, Becky, Kaley, Becky, Leslie

Bottom Row: Lori, Marcia, Lauren

Behind the Scenes: Me!

On this particular night, we were not only "bunking," as Jeremy calls it---we were also showering Leslie, who is pregnant with baby boy #2, with diapers.

Since I was hosting, I made her a diaper cake and used it as my centerpiece. This was my first attempt--and it was pretty easy. Watch out! If you turn up prego, I might have to make you one too!

Stay tuned for more Bunko pics next month---when we will be showering Autumn Hoover's baby-girl-to-be in our Halloween costumes. I'm sure it will be very picture worthy!
