One Saturday night, Mr. D and I volunteered to be chaperons at a youth dance in Bellevue. As we were driving there, Mr. D asked if I thought my younger sister would be at the dance. I told him that she was in the Redmond stake and we were going to a Bellevue stake dance, so we wouldn't, but just in case we tried to think of a few ways we could embarrass her if we saw her.
When we arrived, we started walking through the packed gym, looking for the woman in charge to be assigned a responsibility. Within the first 30 seconds, we bumped into none other than my younger sister! I was surprised to see her, and she was ecstatic, wanting to introduce me to all her friends.
We left the gym, found the woman in charge, and received a job. We learned that we were at a five-stake dance and the 300+ youth there were many of the kids on the east side. Throughout the night we tried to embarrass my sister, but we didn't do a very good job though because she would just laugh at our attempts. We were glad we chose to volunteer to be chaperons at the dance.
Seeing friends in a rock band
On another Saturday night, Mr. D and I went to a house party to watch some of our friends who are in a rock band perform. They performed rock covers from bands including Sublime, Coldplay, and Paramore. The best part of it was knowing that the young lead singer with the purple hair was also six months pregnant.
