On Saturday night, we went over to Glen & Sara's, where we had our Christmas party with them, Doug & Theresa, and Rob & Mikki. What a great time! Great food, great friends, fun kids, lots of laughter, great food, and conversation. Did I mention great food? Oh, three times? really?
It is a unique thing to have good friendships with couples. They are hard to come by. There's always one part of a couple who doesn't connect with one part of the other. It's a bummer because I think hanging out with couples is a lot of fun. Especially Christian couples who all share not only their bond as Christians, but their commitments to their families. It's a good thing, as Martha would say.
We can get wild and crazy just like anyone else. It just doesn't involve some of the usual "wild" elements that are fairly common at parties. However, after Glen's 3rd glass of Mountain Dew, he begins his Lord of the Dance routine in front of the TV. Doug (yes, Doug) starts tossing children into the air, while Steve waits for his turn! Then of course, the children are also great entertainment, and passing gas always gets a good laugh! (we won't name names, Rob)
There wasn't much stealing with the White elephant exchange. We were much too kind, or maybe there was nothing worth stealing. After all, we just picked up stuff alongside the road and wrapped it!
These friends are awesome, true, and a real gift at Christmas time and every day! If you find yourself lonesome for coupledom, we would never turn you away!! The more the merrier, I always say! You bring the chips, we'll supply the "dips"!
