An Art Show with Belly Dancers?

So Travis wasn't able to come home this weekend, but that's okay. Gideon and I had a busy one anyway. We went with Trav's parents to the art show on the river walk. All in all it was an enjoyable experience. With one notable exception....

They had some belly dancers performing at the stage. They were not at all what I picture when I think of belly dancers. I found it even funnier considering that daddy just brought home belly dancing costumes from Morocco, (see some of my previous posts.) Not that I'm taking anything away from these women. It takes courage to perform like that in public. Still seeing someone who reminds you of your mother belly dancing is a little disturbing. Seriously. There were three dancers, I'll bet not one of them was under 50. And honestly, they all had very umm....lush and curvy figures. Still only one of them actually danced with her navel bared and as soon as she got done, she donned a scarf or sheet of some kind. Not that I was at all offended. I guess belly dancing is art after all. And apparently you don't have to be a size 4 Moroccan girl to do it either. Who knew?



Anyway, after that we walked over to the Snake Bite Cafe for lunch. Seriously, if you ever come to Idaho Falls, you have to try the Snake Bite. They're just a tiny little local place downtown, but they have the BEST burgers.

After that we went back to Trav's parents house where Gideon had a little nap and I almost had to go rescue my mom and Cody who were temporarily stranded in Brigham City, Utah. Thankfully though I only made it as far as Fort Hall before they called and informed me they were un-stranded, so I was able to turn around and go back. I'll let mom post that story though.


How blessed am I to have the cutest boy ever?
