Easter, Parentals, and LindyBombing

This past weekend I headed north for the Easter holiday.  It was so nice to visit with my friends and family!  I got to meet up with Mrs. Okie Boy Mom and Mrs. Oklahoma Flag Friend!  Love them!

 As you know, part of my 30 before 30 includes visiting my parents at least twice.  Which my mother only counts it when I'm there just for them.  I love you mom!  So, here we are on Easter Sunday morning!

 The Monday after Easter turned into an incredibly LONG day as my calendar was full of clients and appointments.  But just before I left work, I received an exciting text message inviting us to go Lindy Bombing.  In case you don't know what that is, it where a group of swing dancers go and dance in a non-dance environment such as a public restaurant, park, or party.  It was Mr. EAN and Miss ASQ's birthday, and they wanted to go to 3 Spoons Fro-yo.  Yes please!  Here are the birthday twins:

 A group of other swing and non-swing dancers came to join in on spectacle/fun!

 Best part about the night?  I got to cross Lindy Bombing off my list!  Sic'em!
