dancing with the stars

tonight we changed things up a little bit.

i have wanted to go swing dancing FOREVER now!

and my friends ALWAYS bail last minute..

but tonight i made them go.

there is swing dancing every wednesday night at this fun center in logan.

brynne, mady, and i 

walked in and at first we were just like

....what the heck are we doing here.

it was nothing like i thought it would be like.

so we kind of sat against the wall and watched everyone

DANCE LIKE THEY WERE PROFESSIONALS.

no big deal that i have no idea what i'm doing.

when i say professionals,

i mean flips and holding people above their heads

and people spinning on the floor

and doing all these fast, crazy dance moves.

sorry that i'm new at this.

it was almost a little bit intimidating.

i was trying to avoid making any sort of eye contact with any guy

because i was scared that i'd have to dance with them.

and i didn't want to embarrass myself.

and then i realized i was being stupid,

and that any guy there could teach me how to swing dance.

so the first time,

i completely sucked.

completely.

and the second time,

i was really bad.

like, really bad.

and the third time,

i was a little bit better, but still bad.

and then i danced for a while with the greatest guy to teach me how it's done.

and i wasn't horrible.

it was actually really, really fun!

i learned the pretzel, window, and a bunch of other weird named moves.

and i learned how to waltz.

apparantely i'll need to know that for my wedding day.

never thought of that.

and now we're going to sign up for a swing dancing class.

ohhhhhhh

and i got to witness a proposal.

the song that was playing was

"God Gave Me You"

and i was like oh this is a really cute song they decided to play.

next thing you know,

a guy got down on one knee and proposed.

i seriously had tears in my eyes.

what a cute event.

it's a good time in that fun center.
