I hope you dance


Last weekend Lisa went to our stake's alternative Sweethearts dance.  They do a girl-ask-guy "Sweetheart's" dance at the school in February; our stake, in conjunction with several others, puts on an alternative dance in March for those who want to have fun in a perhaps less worldly setting, or maybe just want to go to two dances instead of one.



Lisa asked Michael, a really nice guy in our ward.  In the afternoon she and her group went and played Nerf darts.  In the evening we took photos down by the Boise River.

Here are a few photos of her and her group.










After that they went to dinner at the home of one of the girls, then went to the dance.  It was held at our church building.  A lady in our ward was in charge of the decorations, so Yumiko got roped into helping (which means I did too).  It was quite the production -- there were 20-30 people working on it at any given time, and it took about eight hours to get the room all ready.  It was pretty impressive.






 


After the dance the kids came over to our house for desert.  Here's what Yumiko made for them.



Everyone seemed to have a good time!

The strings of lights started at the walls and ran to the hook in the center of the ceiling, and whatever was left hung down in the middle. The red "chandelier" thing was made of hoops with red tinsel hanging down from them, with more lights (icicle-style) also hanging from the hoops.

Wow - pretty fancy! But Lisa looks happy (is she ever not happy, though?).
