Apples of Gold

I have been blessed to have been a part of a group of ladies for the past couple of months. I took part in a series of classes that are taught by seven wonderful women. Those of us that were part of this class learned so much about ourselves. I definitely think a lot more about what I am doing and how I am doing it. It has changed the way I deal with Emma and with Steven. (that one is a little harder at times). We would meet once a week and have a cooking demonstration, a lesson and a wonderful dinner. We were completely catered to. It was incredible. Last night we returned the favor by hosting them for dinner. It went really well. Once we were done eating, we played 'Big Bootie'. This is a rhythm game that goes pretty quick. I, for one, am not very good at it. But it was hilarious to see some of these ladies do this. We laughed and laughed. If you had told me that I would be playing Big Bootie with Ruth Hudson or Joyce Johnson someday - I would have laughed at you. They gave it their all!!! (I don't have time to post them right now - but I did take pictures. I will do it next week - I promise!) Yesterday was my birthday and it was a great way to end the day. I wonder if I could convince them to get together every year on March 29th?
