Dance Party USA

In our younger days Travis and I were quite the CD collectors, which has left us with a selection of nearly 400 different albums. This is something our kids will never have with the invention of the iPod. This morning Travis hosted a dance party baby style. The kids stood in the middle of the family room waiting with anticipation as Travis played DJ, he spun tunes from the Beastie Boys to the Blues Brothers. As long as it has a lot of bass and a strong beat the kids are fans. If they didn't like Travis' choice they would protest by sticking their fingers in their ears and chant "change songs, changes songs, we want music". Brass Monkey is a favorite! They danced in circles with their hands in the air (like they just don't care) for over an hour. Lauren even put on her 'my first hooker shoes' and tried to dance on the coffee table. Mommy was a buzz kill and put the kibosh on that one! I hope these are the mornings the kids remember for the rest of their lives!
