 Alert | | My hubby and I had a long overdue parents night out planned and our plans fell through. We don't get a sitter very often so I really want to put this time to use! Does anyone have a really inexpensive idea for me? | | | |

Alert | | Go to the Drive In it is only 5$ per adult and it is usually a double feature and they are all new movies that are out. Have fun! | | | |

Alert | | My husband and I use to go to the drive-in when we lived in Scottsdale. Is that the one you are talking about? Or is there one out this way? We started going because I LOVE movies, but we had a newborn baby. We would bring her and she would fall alseep and we could watch a movie! It was perfect! | | | |

Alert | | I love going to the drive in but honesty its to hot to really enjoy the drive-in's right now. If you go to AZCENTRAL.com they have a calendar of local events, there always pretty decent priced. We always find ourselves going to something at Tempe town lake which there events are almost always free. But I dont think much night life events happening until October because of the heat and snow birds being away. | |
Bye Bye Maricopa! | |

Just doing it one day at a time. Change is good and it should be looked upon as an improvment! not a problem.

Alert | | Yea the drive in is way too hot, we went when it was a little cooler than this and I was miserable. When we got home I felt sticky and dirty from all those people who come in hauling butt through the dirt. | | | |

Alert | | We could work something out to swap kids for a night out. Let me know if you are interested. Anyone, let me know if you would like to swap kid watching for parent time out. Money is getting tighter and I still need adult human contact occasionally. Shhhhh, don't tell my kid...... | |

Alert | My kids go to sleep every night at 8 so we do get some time together at night. I think we just miss being social with other adults around or enjoying each other in a setting other than home, ya know? It's crazy. I knew becoming a parent would limit our together time but man! I didn't think we would be home bound! haha It wasn't so bad when we had just one but once the second came it just got so hard to be anything other than mom and dad.
I think it would be cool to get to know all these fun starved parents and get a babysitting thing going so we all can have some sanity! It's so hard when family is 50 miles away or more and you are new to town. | | | |
