Dance Weekend

Two nights, three dances. How is it that one weekend can have so much fun?? Matthew was the big winner because he was the one who had a dance each night. He was invited to the MM Dance on Friday night. He went with a friend from grammar school who he hadn't talked to since grammar school. Why should that matter? Well it didn't at all.Do you like the smile?
It turned out to be a fun night and you can't ask for much more than that.

Friday was also the Father Daughter dance, a Hawaiian theme this year. Sarah was pondering her evening while waiting for Dad.
She suffers from the same thing I did as a child; sticking her tongue out when concentrating. I can think of worse things, but it really isn't very pretty. Dad donned his best Hawaiian shirt, posed for a quick picture and headed off to dance the night away.
Since everyone else was busy, Colin and I decided to go out on a date of our own. He wanted to go the a local restaurant, go home and play some games and then watch a movie.
Two outta three ain't bad. We never got to play some games because after dinner we were both pretty full so decided watching a movie would come first. We made up for it in the morning and played an exciting game of backgammon.

Saturday was the Mother Son Dance which I was looking forward to since last year was so much fun. While I am wearing a new dress, you may notice Matthew has the same clothes (freshly washed I assure you) on.
I honestly can't justify buying lots of dress clothes for someone who will not only grow out of them quickly but will only wear them a few times. C'est la vie. Matthew and I struck a pose and were ready to go.
A mass started the evening which by the end had many if not all of the mother's in tears. I decided that they should have tucked a tissue inside the program (note for next year). We headed off to the gym which was transformed into ballroom with a Valentine's Day theme. No details were forgotten
and plenty of dancing took place.
I still can't believe how much fun a bunch of high school guys can have dancing with each other.

Overall, it was a great weekend with several basketball games, a shopping trip with Sarah and some Super Bowl parties mixed in. I can't wait to get to work and rest!!!
