Sounds like everyone really enjoyed the Bookclub and the Movie Night. I definetely am looking forward to actually being able to meet everyone and join in the fun. I thought I'd start a thread where we could post ideas for different types of meetups.

Mom’s Night/Day out

Pamper Yourself- When my SIL got married we all went to Terra Lane for a spa party. They made us a party room, so we set up finger foods, deserts and wine (of course) for everyone to snack on and to hang out in and chat in between treatments. I know a lot of the local spas do these types of parties.

Dinner on the town- Reserve a large table at one of the restaurants downtown for drinks, dinner and desert.

Fun for the whole family

Zoo Trip- We have the Birmingham zoo just an hour away and there is also a small zoo in Tuscaloosa called the Tuscaloosa Barnyard that can be reserved for small parties but I haven't been there so I don't know much about it.

Those are some really good ideas Livismom!

Good ideas, LivisMom!
Keep the ideas coming, ladies!
The first MNO was a success and we're in the midst of planning the second. I think we're all dying to see Sex and the City for the next. But after that maybe we can start investigating some of these other ideas...

Thanks ladies!!! I just thought it would be nice for us to have a place to post ideas since the Meetups have been so popular.

One of our newest members, Kerry, suggested a Cooking Club. I thought that sounded like fun. I would love to hear more about that idea.

Here's an idea for a MNO:

I was going to suggest that as well Kristi! Some friends of mine go on Thursday nights to Spirits. You pay 5 dollars to get in the door, taste a bunch of wines, and then the 5 dollars goes to whatever bottle you choose to buy. So, you don't actually pay anything to get in. Sounds neat. I also don't think it lasts long, so it could be paired with dinner and those ladies who don't drink could just join us for dinner.
