Singles Dinner

Okay, so I get to brag on my brothers in Christ a little. =)

LAST Thursday, the guys in my Singles Caregroup decided to make dinner for all us ladies in the care group...and yes, I said "made". We're not talking spaghetti here, folks. I walked in with Ariel...not really knowing WHAT to expect. David greeted us from the porch (where he was grilling chicken) and said we could pick up one of the long-stemmed roses that was waiting for us by the stairs (first surprise!).

Then Jeremy and Eric greeted us from the kitchen where they were putting the finishing touches on a freshly-made salad, green beans, hot bread, and an alfredo pasta dish that I had never had before (lasagna noodles rolled up and set in alfredo sauce, it was really good!). Then Daryll brought out a 7-layer dessert that we all enjoyed! It consisted of pudding, bananas, vanilla wafers, chocolate chips, cherries, cherry sauce, and whipped cream. Yum!

It was a wonderfully relaxed evening. We just sat and talked while we ate, and then when we were done we played "have you ever"...I think that's what it's called...where everyone sits in a circle and one person stands in the middle and says something like "If you've ever...gone swing dancing on a friday night (then you have to get up and find another chair to sit in without ending up in the middle)". It was a lot of fun, though people did get ruthless...especially some of the girls. ;) But thankfully nobody got hurt...too bad.

Anyway, thanks to all the guys who made that evening possible. It was really special and we all appreciated it.
