The Barn Dance

Since they had so much fun dancing with the Rebelution crew when they came up, Leah and the boys decided to throw a barn dance the weekend Mom was here. Invitations went out to as many people as we could fit in our barn loft.

We had some supper, then headed out for some dancing. A Virginia Reel was first. John was my partner and he made it through the whole dance!

We then went to swing dancing. All of us who knew a little tried to teach everyone else. It made for some wild dancing, I can say that much. :D

Even with rather limited room (I think I managed to step on almost everyone's toes, even when I was not dancing with them), we still made some progress in both waltzing and swing dancing.

It was Katie's last weekend with us and she was able to come a few days early and stay for the party. We are glad you made it home safely although we miss you like crazy!!

Dancing with my Mom. Awesomeness... Oh, and the tattoos were temporary, not to worry...

Dancing the night away...

We had a total blast. I could have danced for hours and hours, but eventually the general populace decided we should move over to the bonfire for some dessert and singing.

Many thanks to Matthew, Leah, and Mom for playing guitar for us and leading the singing. All too soon it was time for everyone to head for home. Thank you all for coming and Leah for all your hard work making the party happen. Let's do it again sometime soon!
