I am blessed with a wonderful group of friends. There are 5 of us that started our small group when we were going through the 40 days of community study at our church. We were all friendly with each other before but during that time, we all became really close. We didn't want to stop meeting weekly, but finding a time that would continue to work for all of us was difficult. So, we decided to turn our small group into a Sunday school class. We would all already be at the church on Sunday mornings anyway.
After the first of the year, we began a Beth Moore study called Believing God (which, btw, is very powerful). However, another ladies' class wanted to join us for this study. It has been really nice getting to know other women in our church and making new friends, but it leaves us with less time together as a small group.
So, we decided last month to start getting together monthly to catch up. Last month, we met at TGI Friday's and ate dinner and just sat around and chatted for a couple of hours (don't worry, we all left generous tips).
This month, we got together last Friday and went to the Funny Bone to see Gary Valentine. We made a reservation for 6:30 and all met there to have dinner and chat before the 8:00 show. After that, it was still kind of early so a few of us stuck around the mall and caught a movie. It was so much fun. I SO enjoy hanging out with these ladies. They are great! We always have so much fun together.
I can't wait for next month. Any ideas on what we should do at our next get-together?

It's always nice to spend some time with good friends! And I'm sure it was great to have some Lo time, and not have to be mommy/wife for a little while.
As for next month, you guys could go bowling. It's great exercise and it would allow for some talk time. Or since spring is finally here, you could always putt-putt or take a walk at a local park.
Whatever you do, I hope you have a great time!!!
