The whole 6th grade class at Lakeside Elementary has been practicing dances since the beginning of school. Today they had a dance to show what they have learned. It has been so much fun hearing what dances they are learning and how excited Coop has been as he has worked hard to master these dances. Some of the dances they learned are: Thriller, The Waltz, The Virginia Reel, The Conga, Bunny Hop, Boot-Scootin' Boogy, Electric Slide, The Macarena, YMCA, and even The Chicken Dance! They all did such a great job and it was so cool that every single one of the kids participated and took it seriously. I feel like I was just in school with the sweaty palms and heart racing and now I have a child in the same situation. How did that happen? It was so sweet to see these kids that I have watched grow up since Kindergarten. Now they are growing up and as hard as it is to watch them get big, it is moments like this that make a parent proud! Cooper, we are so proud of you and we love you! Thanks for letting us come and watch you! It was all I could do to keep my hips still and not embarrass you too much! I kind of wanted to "bust a move" myself but I refrained. P.S. You have some pretty awesome moves!
