Girls Night Out!


Last night Jocelyn and I got together for another girls night out! Her husband watched their daughter and my friend Margaret watched Micah and Jacob. She picked me up and we went out to dinner at Chili's. It was so yummy. We spent so much time laughing and talking that before we knew it it was time to leave for out next event.

We were off to Livingstone Cafe to hear Stacey play. Stacey works with the youth at our church and leads worship on Saturday nights. She played her guitar and one guy played another guitar and the other guy played this drum box thing. Does anyone know what it is called? They were so good. They played some songs by other people but then they played a few songs that Stacey wrote herself. They were very beautiful and touching. Jocelyn and I shared a yummy dessert called a Choco lava flow-because on girls night it is a requirement that you must consume some chocolate. After Stacey played, we stayed a little to hear the next group but they were kind of silly. Way to go Stacey, God has blessed you with a beautiful voice, thank you for sharing it with us.

I think it's called a box drum. (Surprise! Surprise!) I remember Katherine McPhee from American Idol sang a song on one episode where a couple guys were playing a box drum. (It was one my my favorite performances of hers, by the way... And I still think she should have won instead of Taylor. But whatever...) *sigh*

And, yes, chocolate is a MUST on girls night out! Yum-o! I'm glad you had a good time and wish I could give you a BIG HUG right now!! So hug yourself and imagine it's me, OK? :)

Please tell Darrick I wish him a very Happy Father's Day. I know he wishes he could be with his boys but he is setting a great example for them and being a wonderful father whether he is at home or on deployment. He is a great role model for other dads too and I pray that he knows that and feels loved this Father's Day! Hugs to him too!

The box drum is called a "cajon" with the c sounding like a k and the j sounding like an h with a long o.
