Dip and the Two Step

This year we shared Valentine's Day with 17 single adults ranging in age 20 to 30. It really wasn't a sacrifice, because we rarely try to infiltrate the Valentine's crowd. We are happy to go out the day before or night after, which we did. Alas, both of us are coming down with something and it took the fun right out of it!

Back to Monday evening, or in Mormon circles known as FHE (Family Home Evening). It is a night set aside of all the other nights of the week, just to spend time with family. Since our singles don't have their own families yet...they like to get together as a church family. Several of our original plans fell through, but one of the cute girls of the group decided to teach us the "Texas Two Step." Since rodeo season is coming upon us Houstonites, it was a perfect activity. We pushed all the family room furniture back and Wah la... dance floor!

BishopRic (as he is sometimes called) promised the women there would be chocolate covered strawberries! How was his promise met...of course I did. I didn't do it without back up though. I purchase already made strawberries in case of failure, and the ingredients to make them. I tired, they turned out okay, but the chocolate was a little thick. Everyone ate them, so I guess success.


Christy in red was our teacher. She even wore her cute red cowgirl boots..I really want a pair.

Ashley and Brian were good students.



Seth and Jody had no problems.







Mine on the left and the bought one on the right. I will purchase a double boiler before I do it again.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
