And, look for the companion devotional written by comedian Kerri Pomarolli, Moms' Night Out and Other Things I Miss: Devotions To Help You Survive.
Tricia and Kerri have teamed up for the "No More Frumpy Mommy" challenge.
Motherhood can sometimes seem like survival of the fittest. Every day brings its own troubles, and by the end of the day, you’re spent. Between school, soccer practice, cleaning, laundry, cooking dinner, putting away dishes, and keeping your kids from going at each others’ throats, the last thing on your mind is getting away for an evening. If that’s you, you’re invited to take part in Tricia and Kerri's No More Frumpy Mommy challenge.
Tricia and Kerri will choose 10 winners to receive a Fandango gift card to see Moms' Night Out, as well as copies of Moms' Night Out (the book) and Moms' Night Out and Other Things I Miss. One grand-prize winner will receive $200 to put toward her own moms' night out or her own moms' night out "ride" (getting her car detailed and cleaned).
Moms' Night Out
About the book:
Moms' Night Out is a novelization of the hilarious family comedy that celebrates real family life---where everything can go wrong and still turn out all right.
All Allyson and her friends want is a peaceful, grown-up evening of dinner and conversation . . . a long-needed moms' night out. But in order to enjoy high heels, adult conversation and food not served in a bag, they need their husbands to watch the kids for a few hours-what could go wrong?
Chronicling one night out gone awry, three harried moms, their husbands, a sister-in-law with a misplaced baby, a tattoo parlor owner, a motorcycle gang, and a bewildered cabbie all learn to embrace the beautiful mess called parenting. This book spotlights the unfulfilled expectations and serial self-doubts many moms feel . . . then reassures us that the key is raising kids in a loving home. Mom's Night Out is an endearing, true-to-life comedy.

My Review:
I absolutely love this book and devotional book!!! I began reading the book and on the very first page when Allyson is typing her blog post and is distracted I could completely relate...and began to think about all I had to still do...and then refocused and kept reading! :) This is a book that was fun, so fun to read, but yet thought-provoking as I could relate to so much throughout it and yet also at the same time comforting as I was reminded that I am not alone. The devotional book is great and is one that I will take my time going through many more times as they are short, sweet and inspiring. Both of these books are must-read and must-have for every mother, seriously they are going to have permanent homes on my bookshelves but will not be on the shelf too much as I am sure that they will be read often, if only a few pages at a time for an escape and a reminder of God's grace and that I am not alone in the everyday busyness that goes hand in hand with being a mom.
