This was a weekend of dancing / rebelling against dancing for the Smith family. Chad rarely has a weekend night free and even when he does, he refuses to attend church dances because they are "so lame". Well, this Friday night Sam and I decided that the time had come for him to give it a try so we forced (I mean gently persuaded) him to go for at least an hour. Chad whined all the way there, he stayed for about 45 minutes and then he called our cell phone 5 times trying to get us to pick him up. When we didn't hear the phone, he called Aunt Becca and asked her to drive all the way across town to pick him up. I guess we may not try that again for awhile. :) I would have taken a picture of his first dance/nondance experience but he's as tall as me now and frankly I was a little scared to ask him to pose.
Saturday night was our ward's Valentine's Day Luau. Unlike Chad and Aaron, Bethany and Miranda love to dance. They cut a rug all night with their peeps. I thought it was hilarious how the girls all got into the whole activity but the boys just kind of stood off to the side. No wonder when they get to be Chad's age, they are still the ones hanging out in the hallways rolling their eyes. Chad is going to have a better attitude about this whole thing in a year or two though, right?

Looks like so much fun. I miss the ward parties. Can I come back?!! Glad you had fun!
That makes me laugh that you were afraid to take a picture of Chad before the dance. I've had the same feeling...
