Girls Night Out & Life As We Know It

Last Thursday was Girls Night Out for me and my best friend Stacy. It’s been a LOOOOOOONG time since we’ve had one. We got the chance to see a pre-screening of Life As We Know It, the new romantic comedy/chick flick starring Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel. What a CUTE movie! It was funny, lots more to see than the commercial clips too. Josh is adorable most of the time, I much prefer the scruffy uncombed hair look and Katherine Heigl was actually mostly likable (she’s not my favorite actress).

The premise of the movie is their best friends die and they are appointed guardianship together. They have a rocky history but attempt to raise this baby; who was adorable by the way. They go through trials, tribulations, fights, poop scenes, baby firsts and more. But sitting next to me was my best friend of 24 years and I couldn’t help crying at the thought of losing her. Katherine Heigl’s character has a mini breakdown about her dead friend and I cried along. This film is definitely not a full on bring your Kleenex flick but it’s touching, hysterically funny and a bit thought-provoking.  I need to set up my will.

Check it out for yourself, Life As We Know It comes out in theaters October 8th.
