"Dancing Through Life" (for all of you Broadway "Wicked" fans)

This fall Andrew and I have been taking waltzing lessons....yes, you read that correctly....Andrew has been learning ballroom dancing! Colorado Springs has the oldest Waltzing club in the country, and a couple from the club offers free lessons to anyone who is interested. So, we thought we'd give it a try, and we have thoroughly enjoyed it! Andrew is actually quite "smoothe" on his feet. :) Anyways, this past Wednesday night was our first time to actually go to a ball and try out what we had learned. We definitely made some blunders but overall we did pretty well. Most of all, we had a blast doing it. The Waltzing club had their Christmas ball in this huge old five-star hotel. It's been there since 1920. It was absolutely beautiful! I wish I had gotten better pictures, but you can see a little of what it was like. It was nice to get away from the pressures of business and the formula and diapers of parenting to do a little of our own "Dancing Through Life."
