Hookie- A day in which liberty is taken upon oneself to exclude themselves from school or work responsibilities.
I HIGHLY recommend that you play Hookie every once in a while. Actually I swear by it. Recently I cashed in on a babysitting Trade with Katie(before the birth of Louise) for a day of shopping and movies. I thought my day was gonna be spent alone, but as i was walking out the door i asked Husband of mine if wanted to join? ( OK I kinda begged him to ditch work and hang with his lady) He made a couple of calls and the day was ours!!!! I was completely giddy. IT was so fun to get the day with NO kids and NO responsibilities!! We Went to lunch, saw a Movie, got cold stone and then spent the rest of the day thrift store shopping. Thrift store shopping is basically the only way I can get him to shop with me. Plus it's hard to do with kids. We scored a lot of cool books and a couple of ties. I guess we are still in love.

Thrift store shopping is addicting! Can't walk out without having spent 20$!
Cute pictures! Cute couple!
I need a day of playing hookie with my hubby...to see if we are still in love
That last comment wasn't from Nathan wanting to see if he and his hubby were still in love...it was from me signed in under Nathan :)
Thank you Ruth, you inspired me. I made Christian take me out last night. We hadn't been out alone in forever. We had a great time.
jealous!
I don't know if I should remind you of this, but I too owe you some babysitting. so next time you want to play hookie hit me up.
Hookie sounds like a great idea. SO glad I get to play hookie in about a week and a half when I ship my girls off for two weeks to Utah. :)
Playing Hookie as a mom is much more rewarding than playing it as a single student- there are just so many more responsibilities you get to avoid. I had so much fun watching/bonding with your boys, wish I did it sooner and more often before being out of commission with newborn-titis.
Oh! YOu guys really are still in love! Sadly, I'm not sure if Ryan and I are anymore, because whenever I ask him to play "hookie", he always turns me down!!
PS maybe he turns me down because our kids would still be with us...maybe NO kids is the key!!
