A night out with friends


The weekend started out great! I was able to go the the Sarah Groves concert with three friends, Barb, Renee and Mary. Mary's husband planned this night out for her/us! We left our husbands in charge and took off for the the cities at 4:00 and headed to Biaggi's Restaurant in Maple Grove, it was fabulous and relaxing! We then headed the the Church of the Open Door, it was a perfect setting for the Christmas Concert. The evening started out with Sarah's husband asking people to stand up for different reasons...ex: If you don't like egg nog stand up..If you have a real tree stand up..then he said if you have 3 or more children please stand up, 4 or more stay standing...etc...well Renee has 5, Mary 6, I have 6, Barb well she has a whopping 9, she was one of two standing in the whole place..she got a round of applause for that!! Between the four of us we have..count them up...26 kids....we did need a night out! It was fun to hear about Sarah's traditions growing up, it was also wonderful to hear what they are doing in Rwanda..that was a highlight, with recent pic's of the trip they took in March.
I just have to say "Thanks" friends, it was fun!
p.s. Allen thanks for planning the night, it was great fun!
