Our family is a dancing family. When David and I were dating, engaged, and newly wed, we used to go dancing all the time. Music is a must in our home. Even when we clean there is music playing. It is quite common for us to have dance parties just for fun. And yes.... we have passed on all of those dorky stake dance moves such as "the sprinkler", "grocery shopping", and the "walker". When my sister got married last September she had a proper wedding reception. When I say "proper" I mean there was a real dance floor and dj which means good times to be had! The last people to walk out of the reception, held at The Point, were myself and our three children. Like David and I, our children are cut from the same cloth so to speak, and want to be the very last people to leave a party. To say we had fun is an understatement. I am grateful for these pictures I have posted, courtesy of Melissa Kelsey Photography. (Click here to see her work) I love them. Aidan was break dancing and ended on a pose. She was there to capture the moment. You can see David on the floor busting a move. Like father, like son. Seery is a twirler for sure. Her white flower girl dress is completely fanned out. We held Liam and danced with him for most of the night, he does not like to be left out. And David and I were even able to dance together for one whole song thanks to our wonderful friends who kept the kids entertained for us. I'd like to think that we've still got the moves, but either way it brings us happiness to dance. Which brings to mind one of our unofficial mottos: "When life gets tough, you gotta dance it out!"
