Dancing Queen

I used to go out dancing ALL the time.  During college I frequented the club scene.  My girlfriends and I would get gussied up and hit the dance floors.  Most people were there to drink but we usually ignored the bar.   Its hard to hold a drink on the dance floor, plus its bad for balance.  So between the clubs, dance classes in college and at the studios, and even coaching dance, I was a complete DANCING QUEEN!

And then I got married and had my beautiful babies and my club turned into a dirty laundry room and my studio became the sticky kitchen floor.  Once in awhile I would hear a song in a store or maybe a restaurant and would do a (probably not so subtle) shake but busting a move was usually permitted for house cleaning time and car trips.  Needless to say when this month our Moms Group outing was dinner and then drinks in a venue with a small dance floor, DJ, and a disco ball my heart totally skipped a beat.  Or should I said took up the beat of a favorite Justin Timberlake song!!

We had so much fun.  Dinner at a great italian restaurant and then to a mellow little bar with a tiny dance floor and lots of personality.  Here are some pics of evening out.  Notice how fancy we were.  I even had my tall heels on!!  (and paid for it today!!! OOHhhhh sore feet!)
