Twice a year during priesthood session, for like the last 12 years, I have gone out for dinner with my mom, sister, aunt, and cousins. This was the first year I've ever had to miss it! I knew I would feel SO lame if I just sat at home by myself this year, so I rounded up some girls from my ward for dinner! I was pretty proud of myself, since I don't know anyone that well. There were five of us, plus Violet and Julia, one of the other girl's daughter. I should have taken a picture of everyone so you could see what my new friends look like! Already I feel so much more like part of our ward and like I have friends here.
We went here:
Apparently it has been there since 1923. It was delicious, and there were pictures on the walls of all the celebrities and sports stars that eat there! But we didn't see any. Violet gave me a run for my money while we were there. She just needed constant attention, and maybe once I fed her in a bathroom stall. Oh well, I still got lots of time to talk with the girls, and I was glad to have Violet there for her first girl's night!
I am so glad you didn't settle for feeling lame - way to go on organizing a girl's night!
