What's Up With That Music?

I guess you've been wondering why there has been nothing but 50's music here on the blog lately? The simple answer is that it was miss Holly's birthday and she chose a 50's themed party. Any opportunity to get your friends to join you in a dress up party is not to be missed. Thankfully Mimi was here to help sew a ALOT of cute poodle skirts. Papa and Mimi together showed all of Holly's guests how to dance the stroll, and the jitterbug and how to do the hand jive. Before long the living room was full of teens looking and acting like they stepped right through time from 1955. It was fun!

The first half of the party was spent on scavenger hunt.  The kids split up into teams and I had them going all over town doing some crazy stunts.  While one team might be at Lowes "washing" a yard ornament pig in the display bathtub another would be doing the chicken dance beside the lobster tank at Wal-Mart.  That's just a little sampling of all they had to endure in the celebration of Holly's 13th.  They were all very good sports about it.  It was a great time but very exhausting.  Why do you think it took me so long to get these pictures up here?  I'm just now recovering that's why!  Enjoy the pictures and take a peek at the whole album in the Picasa Web Album.

PS-the music will now be changing!
