The girls are coming over to catch up on our favorite TV show, enjoy a few snacks and spend some quality time together. I’m in the midst of preparing everything for our fun girls night in. The guys have other plans and it’s just us girls tonight. Yippee!

Here’s How I Program a Fun Girls Night In

Let’s Get Comfy

Comfort is key when hosting a viewing party for a fun girls night out. Yoga pants, tees, and other casual wear will make the best-dressed list for this get-together. Add more than a few pillows and throws for a warm and inviting place to kick back and catch up on your favorite TV show.

My husband says I have way too many pillows on the sofa. I counter with the fact that you can never have too many pretty pillows.

Someone is bound to get a few chill bumps while we’re watching the grand finale so I’m always prepared.

Stock Up on Everyone’s Favorite Beverages

When my girls come over, I make sure and have everyone’s favorite Coca-Cola beverage on hand. For me, it’s DASANI Water. Caitlin must have her SmartWater. Rebekah is all about that Diet Coke.

I keep all of our Coca-Cola beverages in an ice bucket on the coffee table. That way, everything is within arm’s reach so we can pause for a moment, but never miss the action. Plus, the ice keeps all the beverages well chilled.

Of course, during Girls Night In, we talk about as much as we watch the movie. That’s what the pause button is for.

Sweepstakes

Speaking of our favorite beverage, you can show how you #PlayPauseRefresh for a chance to win up to $500 in gift cards and cool prizes. All you have to do is:

Have Your Favorite Snacks on Hand For Your Fun Girls Night In

One of our favorite snacks for Girls Night is Spicy Pecans. I always have plenty of pecans in my freezer because I get them from my dad’s pecan orchard in Georgia. They’re the best in the world!

How To Make Spicy Pecans

Combine melted butter, seasoned salt, hot sauce, and Worcestershire Sauce.

Pour over the pecans and stir until well combined. Spread the pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet.

Bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
