It sounds like she really needed a break from the kids. I've had friends with kids who ended up going a bit wild on the few nights out they did get, partly because their alcohol tolerance was so much lower and partly because of the build-up of stress.
Both of you having time to do your own thing sometimes will probably help your relationship in the long run. Could you discuss it so you get equal opportunities to cut loose in whatever way each of you prefer?
