We go out to dinner. We walk with the kids on bikes or scooters. When we go to our typical Friday place we stop at our local music venue so the kids can watch sound check through the window, then they run to the next bar to see if our friend is working.
Tonight we went someplace else, because the kids wanted burgers and ice cream.
chickens987 she just got them for her birthday Monday! It is probably a miracle they are all still accounted for because I'm not sure where to keep them.
Right now (5:35PST) we are at a park. I grabbed McDs after I picked them up from preschool/daycare. My H is still working so this is a typical Friday for me. We get home around 6:30 ish, take a bath, read books and throw them in bed. Sometimes we hop in the jacuzzi or sometimes we do nothing but watch TV.

We come home and chill and get ds fed. Then H goes to the store to get something for us for dinner and beer. We usually eat after ds goes to bed on the weekends because I want to enjoy my food and relax. Drinking usually starts earlier!

Pizza and movie night. Depending on what time we get home from school/work, we'll play outside until DH comes home with the pizza. Put kids to bed, drink wine and watch DVR. DH usually hangs out with the neighborhood guys for awhile.

DD carries them around in a shopping bag. I only let her take 2 to bed at a time or I fear we'd lose them all.
It really depends. DD had a play date after school today until 6:30 (DS and I stayed and hung out with her friend's mom). The kids were so hungry when we got home that I "made" them bagels with cream cheese for dinner. I ate the same thing. DH, as usual, is eating at the office.
A friend is having a birthday party at a bar and I'm really debating going. I can't leave until DH gets home and he's not here yet at almost 9pm. Unless I have a sitter lined up, I don't usually go out on Friday nights.

Well, we put DD down at 7pm (she didn't nap) and played a game of Ticket to Ride. H is now watching TV downstairs, I am on GBCN but ready to pull out my book and read.
Saturday nights are when we usually "do" something, like see family/friends, go out to the movies or dinner, etc.

It's pretty much the same as the rest of the week. On occasion we will go out for a quick dinner out or I will have mom's night out. But usually it's come home, make dinner while ds watches something and eat, ds off to bed, and we watch TV. It's so riveting.
I SAH and I can't imagine wanting to go out or do an activity on Friday night. I am done. H WFH so he's already home when he is done work and we usually have a lazy night. We'll make something quick for dinner or run into town and pick up pizza. DD goes to bed at 7:00 and then we lay on the couch and play on our phones and usually we'll watch a movie. I started back to work this week though (I WFH in the evenings after DD goes to bed) and I am not sure if I want to work Friday nights yet or not so I might end up working instead of being a bum.
ETA: It's almost abandonment season (aka hockey season) so soon I'll probably be alone most Friday nights. I usually do the same things that I do when H is home but I can watch whatever I want.

I work from home on Fridays so I am home at a decent time and if we aren't heading down to the beach we may attempt dinner out with some friends or get take out. We dont do take out much during the week because what can beat our normal fare of pbj or cereal. :-)

I was just thinking about this on my way home and how I missed doing stuff on Friday. DS usually eats with my parents and sometimes I hold out to eat something with H later after DS goes down. I'm usually snoring on the couch by 1030
I only teach two days a week and one of them is Friday. So it's a long day. H is also done early every other Friday night when it's not busy season.
If H is around we try to do an activity at home with the kids and then something fun for dinner. Bed for the kids then he falls asleep on the couch and I play here. He goes to bed and I usually stay up later and watch the crap TV I want to want to watch.
We get up early on Saturday...so our Fridays are not exciting.
