Dancing Anyone?

Last night Tom performed a wedding for Emi and Phil. As do many weddings these days, this one had a theme - swing dancing. I love to watch the dancing at weddings. Notice I said "watch". There were a group of "kids" - just graduated from college age - who were awesome at swing dancing. It always fascinates me to see men really get into dancing since the men in my family are less than enthused about it. I loved watching Sam and Kristie and Amy and Bryan dancing at the last wedding. I enjoyed watching a group of guys and gals at Matt Gorham's wedding a few years ago. I remember thinking I shouldn't be watching one couple at Suzy's wedding as they were dirty dancing.

When I was in high school we had a ballroom dancing class and it was great fun! I remember that Phillip Blazek and I got to demonstrate in front of a gym full of people. It was an awesome feeling as we swirled and felt the breeze with a spotlight on us.


Just recently my mom told me that she and my dad used to go dancing at the Aragon Ballroom (across the street from Mike). She said that all the girls used to ask my dad to dance because he was so good.

Last night Tom said, "I think we should take dance lessons." Wouldn't that be fun? Perhaps I should have gotten it in writing instead of my response, "Don't make promises you're not going to keep."

By the way, we did dance one dance last night. Usually at weddings we dance one or two slow dances. Last night they never really played one. So we did dance to "Shout". It was fun! Thanks, Tom!
