Halloween Square Dance Party

My grandparents are awesome square dancers. They have even won some medals at the Utah Summer Games. Well, their square dancing group put on a little Halloween Party last Thursday. The kids had so much fun! Gage and Landen didn't want to be the Ninja or the race car driver for this party for some reason. They wanted to wear costumes from their dress up trunk. Never mind I spent good money on their Ninja and race car driver costumes. Whatever!

Here's some of the great grand kids posing with my grandparents.


Gage is a policeman, Landen is a cowboy, and Tanner is supposed to be a pirate.



We tried to learn a few square dancing moves. Tried is the key word here.



I had two partners so it was kind of difficult to dance. My grandpa tried to help but we'll never be professionals. We had fun anyway.


Landen was all business. Gage is always so silly!



My mom really got into the chicken dance.



Afterwards, we stopped by my grandma Liz's house to show her the kid's costumes. My kids don't do well in small places. My grandma lives in an apartment. In just 5 minutes, Tanner had torn off all of the refrigerator magnets, thrown some figurines (luckily they didn't break) and puked all over her couch. We felt our visit was over after all that. It's always nice to see grandma though.
