Dancing at Reception
















For those of you that may not know, I was not one of those girls that planned everything for her wedding years in advance. But one thing that I always wanted at my wedding was dancing. I've been to several wedding receptions where there was music and a dance floor, but no one danced except for the one or two formal dances at the beginning done by the bride and her father, then the bride and groom. But I had been to one reception where a lot of people got up and danced - old and young alike got out on the dance floor and had a lot of fun. Since going to that reception, it's what I've always wanted to have happen at mine. And my dream came true at our reception.
First, I would like to thank Jeff for being such a good sport about dancing. I LOVE dancing with him, slow and fast - just being close, and sometimes being goofy. It was a lot of fun.
Next, I would like to thank my dad for the wonderful dance he gave me. For those of you that weren't there, my parents cut a mean rug on the dance floor.
My dad and I started out with the first dance, and I chose to dance to Butterfly Kisses. It's a really sweet song about a father watching his little girl grow up and then get married, and I really like it. The only drawback is that it's REALLY long - I think about 4 1/2 minutes. But my dad was a good sport, even though the song was so long. It was a lot of fun to dance with him.
Lastly, I would like to thank all of you that got up and danced. You really helped make my dream come true. The dancing at the reception was a real highlight for me. I especially loved seeing parents dancing with their kids, and cousins dancing together. I hope you had as much fun as we did!

Hey, cool! We made your blog. That dancing with my kids was the highlight of my evening. The kids just loved it. And, by the way, is Audrey trying to flip Kendra?

We think Kendra is trying to spin Audrey under her arm, but Audrey is so tall compared to Kendra that she was bending over to get under Kendra's arm.
