{big night out}

Every year Preston's work has their Christmas party at The Canyons Resort.

It's much anticipated all year. More by me than by him.

I get to...

- buy a fancy dress and

know it won't end up with peanut butter on it

- eat a gourmet meal without interruptions

and without having to feed another soul

- have adult conversations

without having to "radar" where my children are

- sit in a hot tub and not swim in a pool

- sleep in heavenly peace

for 8 hours solid

- return to my children rejuvenated

and ready to return to mommyhood

Let's just hope it carries me over until next year!
