Dance Specialists?

We were approached one Sunday by a sister who happened to be at the Halloween dance where RJ and I cut a rug. She asked us to be dance specialists for a stake youth dance festival. I'm not one to say "no" but I didn't feel 100% adequate either. We told her we would do it if she was desperate. Of course, she took that as a yes and we started putting together a routine of sorts. We chose the Cowboy Cha Cha which took us back to the dance class that we met in. Instead of swaying to "Neon Moon" by Brooks 'N Dunn, we chose a pop song by Kelly Clarkson called "Stronger." I wanted the youth to be able to enjoy the music they were groovin' to. We made up some fighter type dance moves for the chorus and decided to wrap the kids hands like boxers. We got to teach the Laurels and Priests. We had a great bunch of kids and had so much fun. Everything took place in one day and our stomachs were churning with nervousness when our kids were up. They looked awesome!

I was so into their dance that I forgot to take a picture. This is a picture of all of the youth (minus the ones that didn't fit in the frame of my camera). Most of the kids in our group are in the back towards the right.
Hunter and McKenna and Reagan were there too. They did an amazing job being patient and cheering. They walked around singing the songs from the different numbers for days afterward.
