Just another night of dancing...

Last night we had another great night of dancing here in Scotland. We went to visit with some friends who are here from Germany to study and then took them with us to our church's Scottish night. Not a Burns' night....because they are often frowned upon in churches due to the whole Whiskey drinking, womanizing thing....Robbie apparently liked the lassies!!
Anyhow, we had a great time at the Ceilidh as did our German friends who had yet to attend such a Scottish night. We all tried Haggis, Tatties, and Nips (that is the traditional Scottish haggis, potatoes, and turnips) and had a great time of fellowship and, of course, the traditional Scottish dances. Benjamin and Alexander both danced to all of the songs except one waltz near the end which was mostly danced to by adults. Benjamin was quite upset that he had to miss that one! As was Hannah who sat on Shawn's knee and cried as I danced with a man from church who knew how to do this particular waltz. They both got over it quickly to do the traditional "dance" to Auld Lang Syne for the "finale".
So here are some pics from last night:

Here is Alexander with a friend doing the Gay Gordon

And Benjamin and Company doing the same dance

Hannah was not impressed with me leaving her to do any dances until her little friend came to take her dancing as well...they just held hands and walked around the outside circle as everyone was dancing. Too cute! Too bad he only speaks German!!

And what you have all been waiting for....Haggis, tatties, and nips!!!
