Girl's weekend

I just got back from a girl's weekend in Newport. I've been there many times before and still love it just as much each time. I left on Thursday and came back Sunday night.
If you have not planned something like this with your girlfriends I highly recommend it. We had a great time together and loved the quality girl time. My husband also does a boy's weekend every year too, except they go all over the US ( South Beach, Vegas, etc.)
The amount of time apart was just the right amount, I'm not sure if I would ever go away for more than a week.When I got back from the trip, my husband was all mushy about how much he missed me.
Just thought I would share just in case you're thinking of a girl's weekend.

Re: Girl's weekend

Sound awesome Heather, I am planning one in my homes for the 6th of Sept, we do it at alternating homes. Everyone also brings a dish.

My GF one of my Bm had one in her home, where for a small fee they got a massage therapist and a manicurist to come in and also a person to do facials. I think that the minimum service pp had to be like $45, but I think it was so worth it.

I might have one of those when the kids are back in school. Thanks for sharing.

Shamma,
Do they stay the night? If so, where does your husband go?
That sounds like fun too, and b/c you're not paying for a hotel you can do it more often! We usually have a get together/ sleep over in NYC once or twice a year, but this was our first away trip together.

Re: Girl's weekend

We do this every year---and I leave tomorrow

We go to a friends parents house in PA-- and go white water rafting (there is no white water, just us paddling down the Delaware), watch movies and just hang out and have fun
I highly recommend it to everyone!!!!
