Mama Rave- UpTown Funk

For most of us the last Mama Rave was a fantastic time. It's definitely something that is out of the ordinary and out of the comfort zone of most "Mormon" women. But for me- it's a time to get out with girlfriends, be a little silly, dance and come home with some lasting memories. It's an event that binds those who attend together for life. I mean, seriously, "CRAZY" binds people! LOL
Even though our numbers were smaller this time- a bunch of us got tickets and planned for a night out to the Mama Rave. Even my step-mom, Edette was in tow and agreed to join me and my crazy peeps! It was super awesome that she'd step out of her comfort zone and be a part of our fun night! Thanks Edette- I LOVEd having you there!

 We met for dinner beforehand at the Jade Garden. The majority of us ordered Lettuce Wraps for our meal. We pretty much wiped out their lettuce supply. LOL Shay C. said they reminded her of a breast feeding/sore nipple remedy. We about peeped our pants laughing as she demonstrated the technique. We giggled and laughed at the menu, fun stories and our interesting fortunes! Man these gals are silly!
After we were stuffed and worked it all off in laughter- we all headed over to the Gateway Center for the dance. They had a photographer there to take "runway" shots of our group. How cute are we??

For those who missed the details of the last Mama Rave- here's an explanation that they had on the web:
Helena's exclusive girls night out! Mama Rave is a " pop up" nightclub just for ALL ladies over 21. Drinks, dancing, dressing up - what more could you want?

Helena's Exclusive Girls Night OUT!Mama Rave was born out of a need to dance and have fun with our friends. Where can you go to dance and socialize?Zumba class...too bright! no margaritas (virgin style for the Mormons. LOL) !...and, uh, spandex!The bar...we aren't looking!Your living room?...tried it...We combine music, drinks, dancing in a fun atmosphere. Think "girls night out" in an organized and sophisticated way!Mama * Rave will be hosted quarterly, in varying locations. Typically 8 to 11 pm.Attire: Night club attire is suggested PLEASE NOTE: You do not actually have to be a "mother" to attend...Being female is mandatory.

Half way through the night- they changed photographers and did photobooth type pictures. It was super silly and we had a blast!

The DJ played WAY more applicable music this time and we danced the night away! What an amazing group of friends I have! Love you ladies!
