There have been numerous girls who have been a part of the VBS over the last many years who have grown up and are now in their late teens or early twenties. They struggle sometimes with life on the reservation because of the many pressures so we thought it would be a great opportunity for our ladies to hang out with these ladies for the night. So it was a Ladies' Night Out!!
Since all 10 of the ladies went and did the girl thing that left the 5 guys with a Guys Night Out which consisted of going to Wal-Mart and purchasing lemonade, cups, plates, napkins and picking out two "man" gifts to be handed out at the Round Up Rally. This seemed like a project where there was no way for us to mess it up. We think we did a great job! We will see tomorrow night, Sybil will let us know if we did or did not.
The plan was for us to go to Wal-Mart and then meet up with the girls for ice cream but we did not make it back in time to go to Checkers, a local ice cream shop. So we made due and bought a box of Drumsticks and ate our ice cream in the van on the way back from Wal-Mart to get the girls. The ladies did their thing, ate ice cream and had a blast. There are plenty of pictures to prove it. The guys did their thing, ate ice cream and had a nice quiet ride in the van. We were all able to focus on one conversation if there was even a need for conversation. We had a good time but there are no pictures to prove it.
Once we picked up the girls from Checkers and started to take Suquamish girls back home the van was once again filled with the uproarious sounds of chatting, an occasional out burst of laughter, numerous requests to turn the radio on (for whatever reason I don't know), loud half sung choruses from country songs and a couple of flashes from cameras.
