In all my research about Hawaii, in all the time that I have been prowling around this island finding new things.........one thing that was never mentioned:
Square Dancing.
I never, not once, connected Hawaii and square dancing in my mind. (I'll bet you never did either.)
Oddly enough, we found out that a bunch of the homeschoolers who attend our church go square dancing every Saturday night. So we decided to try it out. I thought my kids would think this was way beyond the usual dorkiness factor that we have. But amazingly, since a lot of their friends were doing it, they thought it sounded cool.
Then we got there and found out it was actually fun! I kept waiting for Emily to dissolve into a tearful puddle, but she was laughing and having a good time! Many of their friends have been doing it so long they are in the advanced class!
It was an absolute blast! We all had such a great time! We are planning (by unanimous vote) to keep going.
But we're not going to wear the dorky outfits.
GG will have to break out her old outfits and shoes for ya'll to use. Maybe next visit she can get out there and show them a thing or two. Or was that clogging her and Uncle Eddie did? I don't remember but I know they had allot of fun doing it. Tammy
