Mother Son Game Night

Last fall, our elementary school hosted the Father Daughter Dance event for the girls of the school. I blogged about what an amazing night that was for the Dads and daughters alike. Not to leave out the boys, the PTA hosted a night just for them earlier this year. It was called Mother Son Game Night and was hosted at a local venue with bounce houses, miniature golf, and so much more. Connor and I were SO excited leading up to the big night and couldn't wait for our date night. I wasn't sure what to expect because I hadn't heard much about the event, but it turned out to be such a blast!

First up, a selfie from our date night.

Second take, this time with the Texans bull in the background! :-)

All the way to our date night, Connor was so excited. He was gushing about how awesome it was to go to the Mother Son Game Night together and how much he appreciated that I was taking him. So sweet! When we arrived, we were greeted by the PTA members at the front, and they handed us our agenda along with a little scroll. We read the agenda and Connor was pumped!

Our agenda for the evening. So fun!

We waited in line for our evening photo and then Connor was off to bounce and play with his buddies, Jayden and Parker. They call themselves The Big 3, ha! It didn't take long before they were drenched with sweat from playing so hard.

Happy, sweaty boys!

As the boys played, the Moms had a chance to chat and catch up. We jokingly talked about how different the Mother Son event was from the Father Daughter event -- while the Dads and daughters held hands and danced, the Moms got little time with their boys who palled around with their buddies! But I suppose the end result was the same -- Connor and I were bonded from such a fun night together, and I sure received extra hugs and kisses that night.
