MAVERICKS


We have absolutely no pictures to show for it...but let's just say, we had a fabulous time!

This weekend, the Shell Shack girls finally went to Maverick Saloon in Santa Ynez. What a place! Just an old school saloon with wooden floors, pool tables, dollar bills hangin from the ceiling and authentic cowboys along with plenty of other interesting "characters". Country dancing to a live band--until about 11:30, when a DJ starts making dance remixes to Johnny Cash and ultimately transitions into a hip hop set that kept us going til about 1:30am. So not only did we get to enjoy plenty of fun country dancing...but we got to top off the night with Hip Hop!

Of course, the real fun was in the company! April, Charity & Heather (current shell shackers) met up with Devon in Santa Barbara. Debra came along for one of her last "wild" nights before she gets hitched. Plus we brought Paul, Heather's man, who finally decided to brave the shell shackers at our best---DANCING! Meanwhile, Devon brought her crew from Santa Barabara: Tim, Seth, Will & Becky. It was a perfect group: good people + good dancing + good talk = great time!

HIGHLIGHTS....if I had pictures, here's what I would show:
*Heather bustin' moves we've never seen before!

*Devon getting that excited look on her face whenever a new hip hop song started. Every song was her "favorite song".
*Will skillfully learning and mastering the 2-step AND adding his own salsa flavor!
*Paul's unexpected, but totally impressive, "worm" dance performance in the break-dance circle toward the end of the night!


Other highlights will go unmentioned, since it takes too long to type and there aren't any pictures either way!


*sigh* another fabulous weekend...makes me really thank God for the amazing friends and simple little pleasures (like country dancing) that He blesses me with. :)

I am with Devon - country, hip-hop, and a in-between meeting spot to meet up with Dev. What more could a girl want? Although, now I am having country dancing withdrawals. Anyone up for the Grad next week?
