How to Plan a weekend getaway with other moms.

Sometimes moms need to feel like girls again. With the stress of jobs, soccer practice, cooking and cleaning, moms need some fun once in a while. Gather your girlfriends and plan a girl's weekend.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Girlfriends
• Moms
• Plans to getaway

1. PLAN IT: Get all of your girlfriends together and make plans. Pick a weekend when everyone is free to go. Make sure that everyone marks it on their calendar. There are many options, from going to the spa and going shopping, to going for a hike and a bike riding weekend.

2. SET SOME GROUND RULES: Make the decision that it is going to be a weekend to relax, no discussing or worrying about the family at home or work. Also discuss spending limits, a girl may not be able to spend as much as the others. If you all want to do something that one of the girls cannot afford, everyone could pitch in to help her out.

3. ENJOY: On the way to your destination, turn up the music and sing at the top of your lungs. Go out to eat at new places and try some new foods that you have never ate before. Go dancing and cut loose. Go shopping. Shop for yourselves, you deserve it. Splurge on ice cream, new clothes, and new shoes. Do not think about a diet or work.
