Stephenson Family Ties The Barn Burnt Down
And Now I See The Moon

DANC'IN IN THE STREET!!!


In the spirit of Halloween....
And because I have a reputation to uphold as chairperson of the Activities Committee...
And because my committee and myself are bound and determined to get our ward (congregation) to mingle and enjoying one anothers company...
GUESS WHAT WE'RE DOING THIS MONTH?!?!?

We are planning a family Halloween party!!!
We're going to take over a neighborhood cul-d-sac.
There's going to be dancing!!!
And costumes!!
And old black and white scary movies. (any suggestions??)
Dutch oven stew will be brewing.
There will be bobb'in for apples and a Halloween parade.
Even a crafty 'thing' for the littlest spooks.

BUT....
the highlight for me will be getting all the old fuddy duddy moms and dads out on the dance floor/asphalt to shake their booties. We'll be dancin the THRILLER just like Micheal Jackson-the King of Pop!!!
Practices have already begun!! We're determined to learn the steps and have some fun.
Wednesday was our first session, and we were 'thrilled' to have 6-7 good sports show up and give it a try!!!

What I know:
Im going to shelve my natural reserve and put on a costume and DANCE!!!
And its going to be FUN!!!!

You GO GIRL! Wish I could be there to enjoy the fun (AND to watch you dance)!!!!
The whole Thriller thing reminds me of that movie - what's the one with that way cute actress who makes a wish in a closet and wakes up as a grown-up? She teaches everybody the Thriller dance at a party???? I hate that I can't remember the name of it. Write me back if you know what it was, okay? It was great! And you will be right there in the front of the line leading everybody - RIGHT???!!!

The name of the movie is 13 GOING ON 30!! It is a darling flick. And... we watched the dance part the other night, to see if it would help us learn some of the moves!! Jennifer Garner!! ALIAS!!!!

Thanks! I knew you would know that movie (thanks Natalie too!). And how could I forget that she was in Alias - since I was hooked on that series too! Take some pictures and send them to me!!

natural dancing reserve? hmmmm. like i said, i think it's a sharp thing to not be gracefully inclined. however, should you continue to get me to those practices, i will try to support you from the rear of the pack, where they put the loser dancers. i'm not ashamed. dancing is most def not something that comes naturally to my big feet, long legs, and obviously easily unbalanced nature! ;O) (remember zion's???)
