Last week I had my girlfriends over.  It was incredibly important for us to get together because one of our best friends is moving, far, far away in a matter of a few weeks.

Since moving into my house 18 months ago, we have had many gatherings here.  Almost all of our get-togethers take place at my house and always after the kids are in bed.  We gather around my kitchen island, where all of the food hangs out.  (there is ALWAYS food.)  We eventually make our way into the living room with paper towels full of finger foods.

There is always laughter, usually crying (from the laughter) and almost always someone dances for at least a little bit.

Last Thursday was no different.  We had our same plethora of food; spicy buffalo wings, pizza rolls, veggies with ranch dip, a yummy cream cheese taco dip dip and the most luscious brownie bars ever made.  (if I do say so myself.)

It was so much fun to get together, after all of our kids were tucked in sweetly in their beds for the night, sit down and talk, play Rock Band and not have to worry about anything besides being together and enjoying each other’s company, and the food, of course.

By the way, we ROCK at Rock Band.
