Ward Dance Specialists

Geoff and I were just called as our Ward Dance Specialists for a Dance Festival that occurs every four years here. The participants include all the youth ages 14 -18. It is actually a production that includes 6 Stakes in the area. Each Stake learns a different style dance. Our Stake will be learning and performing Country Swing.

So Geoff and I will spend a month learning the routines for 3 different dances, then will teach them to the youth in our ward every Wednesday night until the actual Dance Festival. It's a major production, and SO MUCH FUN for the youth.

I'm especially excited to have a good excuse to go dancing with Geoff every week for the next several months. I might even get to buy some PINK cowboy boots!!!

PINK! Sounds great to me.
You were saying you need to start doing your exercises....there ya go!
How fun!

Pink cowboy boots?? Is that over-magnifying your calling?
Just landed in CA... see you Friday.

I am so glad you received that calling and that you are excited about it too! I think the boots sound inspired!

What a fun calling! And Country Swing is so fun that the youth may even do it without too much grumbling. I love swingin' with my Jeff. Hope you have a great time!

You better have Justin learn Geoff's part since Geoff is going to be gone during lots of the next few weeks.

Okay, that is the best news ever. Matt won't dance, so I sit around pining for the dance floor. Seriously, he's perfect except for that.
