Dinner for 11?

No i'm not posting about the last super. this was my experience for dinner tonight. Has anyone ever eating with 11 people at one regular sized dinning room table before? Well after tonight i can say that i have. I ate dinner with Nicole and her entire family minus one. It was her mother and father, Christina, Nicole, Michael, Ellen, and Mary Grace. her older sister Angela wasn't there but her boyfriend Ted was. He seems like a cool kid. Then their family friend brother Leo was their from Chicago. He has a sweet name and a sweet calling he does ministry for homeless people in Chicago. Then the neighbor was there also. And then there was me. The whole time i was nervous about eating properly and not talking with food in my mouth and what not. Half way through the meal i realize that the dinner table is for telling stories, cracking Irish jokes, and laughing. Which all can be done with food in your mouth. If you had something to say you had to say whenever you could find a spot to say it whether you had just taken a bit or not. After dinner brother Leo shared a reflection from the easter season and then we prayed together which i thought was very cool. In my family growing up it was just me and my mother so having a prayer time together was not on the list. I think that when i have my family that we will all say prayers together i think its sweet like that. I was very glad that Nicole's family accepted me for who i am and even let me join in on their prayers. She has a wonderful family and she is pretty awesome herself. Tomorrow i have this ridiculous band concert thing i agreed to participate in i know it will be a good experience for me but i guess i'm just not feeling it. The concert is on Sunday at 2 if you wanna show up we are all going to get together and worship America!!!! Nah, it should be fun. Well Sunday equals first day of baseball in America so get excited folks cause i know i am. I'll give updates on my fantasy teams on here too. sorry for the long post have a great day. Also one other thing Nicole's relative recently had twins and they were emergency c sectioned one of the boys died his name was Samuel the other boy is will and he is surviving but needs prayer so if you could join me that would be sweet! thanks have a sweet rest of the day!
