Girls Night Out

A friend of mine came into town last week and several of us friends got together for an exciting night of BOWLING. Let me tell you there is nothing like setting a bunch of mothers lose on the world at 8pm at night in a bowling alley. There is nothing that brings out the giggly and silly high school girl in a bunch of thirtysomething mothers like a bit of freedom that comes from not having to wrangle small children. We ate like high school girls too. Geez, I could go for some more of those cheese fries, english chips and fried zuchinni sticks right now. I am SO glad I braved driving in the snow for that night. I had a truly fabulous time. Here are some pictures that document out night out.






There are more pictures that I don't have but let me just say that there was lots of fun that came from some ladies standing on their heads and singing, friends trying to break the concentration of the active bowler by goosing them, fun dance moves and struts galore and at least one successful bowl was celebrated by someone pretending to ride the ball return like a horse. There were a couple of husbands present and I do believe that he asked his fantastic wife if she was always like that when she was out with friends. *giggle*

One of the greatest blessings in life is friends. I love what Clarence the Angel on It's a Wonderful Life says, "No man is a failure who has friends." Isn't that so true? Friends should remind us of all that is good, happy, joyous and brilliant in the world and I am grateful that I have friends that do just that. They are a safe harbor and they bring the warmth of God's love into daily living.

So, here is to you all my incredible friends ((HUGS)). Now, who wants to go bowling?
