Once upon a time, my best friend, Sheryl, had a Valentine's dance in her ward. I went as the photographer, but it was an 80's dance! Like I wasn't going to go dressed up and have some fun while I was at it! My sister commented today that she had never seen the pictures, so these are for you Laura...
This is Marisa, Sheryl's sister, and Rick, my brother. They are both clearly always good to have at a party. The two of them figured out a version of the "Thriller" line dance and taught it that night. It was AWESOME.
This night was really fun, but I have to say, I think thrift store shopping for our costumes had to have been the best part. We would get so excited with a good find and then we laughed ourselves sick when both Rick and Jeff scored some nice shiny gold chains to wear. Bodacious. (I'd like to note that 3 of the four men are wearing loafers, and two of them are sockless. Awesome and Ewww.)

Hahahaha! Every time I see these pictures I start laughing so hard that I can't even stand it...
That was SO FUN. I love that we had 30+ people (including an EIGHTY year old man) out on the floor learning Thriller. It was awesome!
My pregnant belly rocks.
PS It's KEVIN and Debbie. Good memory on her name!
That looks like a blast. The 80's look good on you--you look smokin'!!! Is there going to be a photographer (you??) at our dance?
You had me laughing SO hard with this post! You and Jeff look RADICAL!!! I'm still laughing right now!
Here's a little secret about getting a dog, puppies are harder than a newborn baby and dogs are as easy as pie, once you get them trained. Even after all that, I will always have a dog in my home. Look for a dog that's a year old. That's the perfect age. They're still puppies, but they are usually potty trained. (Unless they get the squirty poops! EWWWW.)
I love reading your blog...you a delight to know!
Wow..that's your look for sure. I used to covet big bangs. Then I tried them out for a few years and realized they are over rated. But still very fun to sport.
Who was responsible for the expensive looking backdrop? Love it!
Oh, my I laughed HARD! That's freakin' awesome!! I wish we could have come. We did a "Tacky Sweater" party once, I'll see if I can get a picture from that posted. I love the 80s they're the best. There's nothing like a pink polo shirt and white dockers to get you all in the mood eh?
Loved looking at the pictures again. It seems that anytime you, Sheryl, or Marisa are involved it becomes a memory worth the making!
Thank you 'Shell. I love your outfits!! Sheryl's cute pregnant belly is even cuter in 80's clothes. And it really speaks to your and Jeff's deep emotional connection that you could coordinate colors even when finding hideously awesome 80's junk to wear!!!
