Dance Filled weekend!!!


Oh my goodness!  I had quite the weekend!  It was so fun!  And it was filled with lots and lots of dancing!  Saturday morning I went to Zumba.  I've gone to Zumba 4 or 5 times now and it's always fun!  But this time it actually seemed like a workout.  It got my heart pumping!  I think maybe now that I've gone a few times I finally knew the dances well enough to get into them a little bit more.  I really liked that it actually felt like a workout this time.

Then later that night I went to a Bachelorette Party . . . so there was lots of dancing going on!  It was so fun!  We went to Boogie Nights which is a club at a Hollywood Casino that plays 70's, 80's and 90's music.  It was awesome!  Here are a few photos from the night . . . 



Me and the gorgeous bride!


Riding down the escalator to the dance floor!  How fun is that?!  You get to make a grand entrance!



The view from the top of the escalator looking down onto the dance floor!


There were lots of fun characters that worked at the club.  Like this disco man on stilts!


And this guy dressed as Billy Idol!

It was such a fun night!  I know a lot of people who have gone in the past and talked about how fun it is but I just never had the desire to go.  I'm so glad I did!  So fun and different!  However, this night just confirmed what I've always felt . . . . I can NOT dance!  Haha!  I've always been involved in cheerleading and dance but that's different.  I am completely capable of learning choreography and getting down that way but when it comes to freestyle I suck!  Haha!  At Zumba on Saturday I just kept thinking "I know I look like a cheerleader right now!"  All my movements were all stiff and cheerleader-ish!  And then that night at the Bachelorette Party I was surronded by all these great dancers.  Made me feel so inadequate!  Haha!  I worry that when I dance freestyle I look like this . . .



or maybe this . . .

The Jersey Shore guys dancing!

Seriously!  I feel like a dance like a dude!  I just throw my hands around in the air like the Jersey Shore boys!  Why can't I dance like Anne Hathway in this scene from Bride Wars?!?!

Bride Wars Dance Off Scene
(starting at about minute 6.40)

Haha!  Ok, maybe I don't want to dance exactly like that!  But at least it's a little more feminine than the fist pumps!

Maybe I should take lessons somewhere?!?  Regardless, it was such a fantastic night and I am so excited for my friends wedding!  It will be here SO soon!  Hopefully I can freshen up my dance moves by then!
