Christal was the cause of one of the biggest fits of laughter I’ve ever been a part of in my life.
On our last night of the I Heart Faces workshop, a bunch of us went on a Photowalk through downtown Dallas together and ended up eating at an authentic BBQ restaurant (yum!)
By this time, we had spent a lot of hours together and everyone knew everyone else very well. We were comfortable, relaxed, starving and ready to sit down and socialize a bit.
Time passed, conversation continued to flow, laughter was abounding and I was turned to my right talking to Amanda when all of the sudden I heard a roar of laughter from the other end of the table.
Enquiring minds wanted to know…what the heck was going on down there?
It ends up that while she had her phone out, Rebeckah from Life with Kaishon (whom we had all called “Becky” the entire weekend) had sent Christal a Facebook friend request. A little while later Christal took her phone out and was checking her emails and noticed she had a friend request from a "Rebeckah Leatherman Adams".
After a few seconds of looking at her phone, Christal turned to the girl sitting next to her on her left (Melissa) and whispered “Is there a Rebeckah in our group? I don’t think I know this person.”
Melissa looked at her in disbelief and said “Um, yeah…she’s the person sitting right over there. You know, in that seat RIGHT NEXT TO YOU.”
At which time Christal slowly turned to her right to look at Becky and decided that she’d like to dig a hole to bury her head in.
If we thought we were relaxed before, it was nothing after that little event. Becky (with her awesome New Jersey/Philadelphia accent) was on a roll and we got to sit back and enjoy the view. LOL!!
Here's a teeny-tiny peek at how our evening went (which basically means that you are just going to see a bunch of ladies laughing like goofballs...)

By the end of the night we were all referring to Becky as “Who are you again?? I think I might know you, but I don’t really think I do!” and as “Oh yeah, you’re the girl with the well-known blog called Life With Kevin!”
Christal was actually lucky though. She had almost turned to BECKY to ask her if she knew who this "Rebeckah Leatherman Adams" person was. Now that one...she would have never lived it down. LOL!

Heeee! That TOTALLY cracked me up, because I did the VERY SAME THING, except that I was here at my house... so there were no witnesses. I got the Facebook request (thank you, sweet Becky!) and went "Who???" Because in the blog world, we're all known by just first names, or nicknames, or whatever. That is totally stinkin' hilarious and makes me even MORE jealous that I didn't get to be a part of the fun... next year, ladies... next year...
Cracked up just re-living it again!! One minor detail...I think Christal actually sent the friend request to Becky and got the email saying Becky had accepted her friend request, at which point she was like, "Is there a Becky in our group?" And you're right -- Becky's Philly accent made her comments all the more hilarious, especially to a southerner like me!
Hilarious! Sounds like a great time. Cherish the times with friends and let your spirit grow. You guys/girls seem like a fun bunch!!
I missed that story! How funny :)
It could only happen to me! But, it made the night even more fun! And, after that Jessie and Becky were hilarious! I'm glad Becky is such a forgiving person! I felt awful! But now, I will never forget who she is! Thanks for the recap... I'll have to link to it since I haven't sat down and wrote about it yet!
Oh my goodness Sarah...that makes the story even funnier! HA!!!
Thanks for not minding me "featuring" you Christal. You were such a good sport about the whole thing. :) It seriously was hilarious!
This evening was so hilarious. Jesse and Becky and everyone else was so funny after this. :)
I laughed so hard my stomach hurt.
Thank you for that recap. You got a huge smile on my face reliving it :)
Sometimes I don't even know who I am that is for sure : ) I just adore Christal though. It is funny that she SENT THE REQUEST to me! And then wanted to know who I was.... I don't know what to think about that?
And P.S. Accent? What are you talking about accent? Get out of the city! I do NOT have an accent!
