Friday Night Smorgasbord...


What do two couples with no children do on a Friday night...lots of stuff! It all started when we went to dinner with our dear friends, Brian and Jen Bennett (her blog is on my links).  After eating lots of chips and salsa at Chili's, we headed to "Swayze's" to hear our friend, Shane Cole, play with his band. "Swayze's" is a venue that sums up garage band style with its concrete floors and plywood (which was spray-painted black) pieced together on the walls and held together with duct tape. Shane's band was really good...especially considering the fact that the sound system was not the greatest! Hopefully we can go hear them again when there is a superb system! Shane is an incredibly talented musician and a super sincere person! He also plays an amazing role in our church band! 

The concert didn't last long so the night was still young and so we decided we "needed" some dessert and a movie. We all wanted milkshakes from "Chick-fil-a" but, upon our arrival, our guilt began to kick in and we all (except Brian) opted for something with less calories!! Following icecream and a milkshake we chose to ignore the harsh critics and went to see "Fool's Gold" for a late movie! I think we may be getting older because we were all about the fall asleep before the movie started! We should have listened to the talented critics and we would not have waisted 20 bucks! It really wasn't as horrible as I've made it sound but, it wasn't the best! Our conclusion...wait and watch it at home! 
Brian and Jen, we promise to hang out more often! We feel so blessed to have a bunch of awesome friends to hang with! We love our church and all the people we meet there! It's wonderful to have a place that feels like home! Check out our church at www.viningslake.org!
