Fun Times Had By All!

That describes the weekend pretty well, I think! 

Friday night was the Girls/Guys Night for our small group.  The girls had dinner together and then talked for 3-4 hours.  We had a good time just talking (I did try to get a game going, but no one seemed interested ).

The guys, on the other hand, met at my house where they grilled their burgers, hot dogs and steaks, watched basketball on the hi-def television, and then deep-fried everything they could think of.  Things that were battered and thrown in the deep-fryer included candy bars, Oreos, those coconut Girl Scout cookies, chocolate cake, Doritos, jelly beans, and maybe a few other things I can’t remember.  They also enjoyed daring each other to try different things and one of the guys (Ty) ate the 21 remaining candy bars for $40.  All in all, the house doesn’t smell horribly like grease, they cleaned up before I got home, and they didn’t burn the house down, so I think it was a big success.

Saturday, we were exhausted (we’re too old for those kinds of parties, I guess!) so we just hung out at home, slept in and goofed off.  It was quiet and nice. 

Sunday was church, then we headed to Cedarville for a birthday party for my mom. We spent the afternoon chatting, watching television, and playing hide-n-seek with the girls…so cute!!  I’ll do pictures sometime soon. Then we came back to Columbus for small group.  I was tempted not to go, but it was fun, so I was glad we did. And then we collapsed into bed last night because we were so tired.  The end.

  1. It sounds like the guys had a fun time, but I’m with Trisha that those particular foods don’t sound so good deep fried! I probably could have eaten all those candy bars myself! I just wanted junk food all weekend!!

  2. I’ll be honest. I don’t love cake either. but this was more like cake batter, which is a million times batter than actual baked cake. It was great. You should try it.

  3. Mmmm… collapsing into bed sounds nice!  The thought of those deep-fried foods makes me gag a little.  We deep-fried french fries this weekend – I think for the first time this year – and we didn’t love them.  They tasted very heavy compared to the baked french fries we’re used to.
