Swing Dancin' Time!

Mon Jun 08, 09 11:50 pm



OK, I'm changing the first sentence in this blog entry because nobody has even LOOKED at it yet, let alone commented. -sniff- I attribute it to the boring first words. People, there are PICTURES in this post! LOTS OF PICTURES!! Smile

In the middle of April, me and my siblings met up with several other HSAers in Bishop Hill, IL for a Swing Dance-- put on by some friends of ours. Excellent dance instructions, live band, friends...what more could one ask for?



A live band has gotta be the best thing to dance to.


Kelli H. and I attempt the "pretzel". Do you think we'll become un-entangled?


My sister Johannah and Jill W. at supper time. Ahhh, did I mention there was food there too? Smile


Karen and Andy Fuzak, our awesome dance instructors. They taught us several Swing steps, and also short introductions into waltz, foxtrot, tango (so fun!) and other types of dances.


Swingin'.


The Many Faces of Kelli and Helena.


Here you just might be able to pick out Ava & I dancing, as well as Mr. & Mrs. Hemmer and Faith & Melody Hemmer.


Adam and Johannah. Awwwww.


A highly improvised and lively dance with Kelli. Smile


Desi and Hans. Desi has such a cute smile.


Faith Hemmer and April Brown.


Mr. and Mrs. Fuzak share a laugh.


Nine-piece band.


Before leaving, we head out to admire one of the four raccoons my sister Ava is raising this Summer.


Desi tries to snip my nose off.


Jill and Greg. One more thing brothers are useful for: a hiding place from a prying camera.


A street in Bishop Hill. How cool is that?!? Smile
