Man, oh, man---oops, scratch that! Woman, oh, woman, have we got a newsflash for
you! Just in case you haven’t heard,
Daughters of the King (DOK), our sleepover for junior high, high school, and
college gals (and even grownup gals who don’t mind getting zero sleep), is just
a few weeks away (April 5-6). And, trust
us, you don’t want to miss it. Why? Well, we’re glad you asked, because we happen
to have compiled five fantastic reasons for you to be at DOK. So, without further adieu…
1. No boys allowed!
And by that we mean no…boys…allowed.
No boys. At all. This is a 100% girl party. We’re not even letting the guys on the
Uplands Staff inside! Since it’s just
gals, we can let our hair down, kick back, and have a blast celebrating the
awesomeness of being female. We
understand this might be a bummer for all the guys out there who love Uplands
Reach, so that’s why we have Mighty Men of Valor (April 20). Guys, we love ya, and I would say we’ll be thinking about you
at DOK, but chances are, we won’t. We’ll
be way too busy with….
2. Line Dancing!
Lots of it! Better bring your
boots, buckles, jeans, and hats because this is one western adventure you won’t
soon forget. We’re seriously about to
cowgirl up. And is there a cowgirl out
there who doesn’t love the Cupid Shuffle?!
No! But even if there were, the
load of fun we’re gonna have at DOK would change her mind. Now, I know what you’re thinking…”But I don’t
know how to dance!” No worries, we’ve
got some incredible gals lined up to teach some fun and easy steps. But even if you want to opt out of it, we’ll
still keep you occupied with…
3. An abundance of amazing activities. Where do we begin listing them? How about with makeovers, manis, pedis, photo
shoots with a professional photographer, a late night movie on the big screen,
jewelry making…my fingers are cramping up from all the excited typing! So, suffice it to say, let the good times
roll!! Whew, we’re gonna need some
sustenance to fortify us for such incredible adventure. Good thing we’ve got a….
4. Chocolate Buffet. No, that wasn’t a typo. Plan on a literal buffet of chocolate, as far
as the eye can see. Well, maybe just as
much as a couple really long tables can hold.
At any rate, envision fountains flowing with chocolate, skewers loaded
with strawberries, and satisfied smiles on lots of faces! But, last but most certainly not least…
5. Elizabeth Wickline. The mere mention of her name makes us
smile. This fun, funny, funky gal loves
gals, and she’s got a powerful message about self image. Feel like getting to know her ahead of time? Check out her blog, boundinbeauty.blogspot.com. She’ll
be sharing the love of Jesus straight from her heart, and we don’t want to miss it. And we don’t want YOU to miss it,
either! So don’t!
It’s too bad we already promised you just five
fantastical reasons for you to be at Daughters of the King…because if we wanted
to, we could list at least a billion more.
But we’re gonna save you lots of scrolling by just proclaiming here and
now…DAUGHTERS OF THE KING IS FANTASTIC, AMAZING, INCREDIBLE! (And so are you, daughter of the King! That’s why it’s your destiny to be there.)
