Belly Dancing...
Last weekend we took a trip down to Austin. It was a blast ....
So why did we go? Well, Candace has begun taking belly dancing classes at A&M. On Saturday, her teacher was preforming at a belly dancing bazarre. The bazarre actually began at 10 am and lasted all day. The day was to be filled with dance performances, lessons, and-to end the day-and Arabian dinner with another performance. ...
Saturday, Melanie, Leeza and I left at 7:30. We played all day...when we got to town, we went to UT and played around the campus for a while. They had a ton of area artisan's set up with their crafts. It was fun to see all of that. And I was good...I didn't splurge on any of the jewerly. ...
Afterwards, we went to the belly dancing bizarre. It was interesting and fun. When you walked into the building, you saw all sorts of things from Syria and Egypt. Some of the jewelry and costumes were gorgeous! We sat and wathced one performace and then had the chance to take a belly dancing class. Talk about exercise! After twenty minutes my legs hurt! After our lesson, we got to see Candy's teacher perform. She was good! ...
That evening we went to Dave and Busters. We ate and then had a skee ball contest...of which I had the lowest score. Not a shocker. Needless to say, we all had a good time.

Quote of the day...
Sometimes you just have to trust that what you see isn't the whole picture. If nothing else, have faith that if you sit tight, the right course will become clear.

Fall Fun
Tonight was the big bonfire. The grandparent’s of a girlfriend live North of the Metroplex on a good amount of land. We decided to all head out that direction for a bonfire with hotdogs and smores. ///
We arrived at the farm around 7 pm. It was still light, but dark was coming fast due to an approaching storm. Once everyone arrived, we all climbed upon a large trailer filled with hay. Off we went into the wilderness for our bonfire. The hayride took us further and further into the land. We passed a few small farmhouses and lots of land before we arrived at our destination. Already a large stack of wood formed the bonfire. The guys set to work to light the fire and before long the flames were licking the trees above. ///
The evening went by quickly…we played ‘hide and seek’ in the dark, cooked hotdogs, made lots of smores and chatted too. ///
By about ten, the storm had come and we were all standing in the rain. A few of us had brought umbrellas so small groups huddled under an umbrella. Not long after the rain had started, we all climbed back onto the trailer and hay (now wet with rain) and headed back. ///
Once we got back to our cars, we headed back to town. Most of the group headed out for hot chocolate…never a bad way to end an evening. ///
Oh, I almost forgot about the costumes…the theme was ‘what do want to be when you grow up.” There was one outlaw, a cowboy, a bride, a mother, the first lady, Yankee pitcher, a farmer’s wife, Barbie, and several more that I can’t think of right now.
