Jake's class set up a Dance, Dance Marathon on Saturday to raise money for their free clinics that they have and raise money for uninsured children. We had to take part. You were to dance the day and night away. It started at noon and went all the way until midnight. We got t-shirts and water bottles and yummy food. It was such a great cause and we had a great time with all our MCW friends dancing the night away.
We were the only ones that had a kid there so Nolan got full attention. It took Nolan about an hour to warm up to all of the people, the loud music, and all the balloons he could ever want. He was obsessed with the balloons. He wouldn't put them down. Most of them were connected but he didn't care. He would drag around the entire bushel of balloons. But he would only hold on to the blue one. Later on in the day he realized there were beach balls. So the balloons were out of the picture and the ball was his thrill for the rest of the night. He was all over the dance floor kicking the ball, hitting people with it and just loving life. Plus all he got to eat was yummy ice cream and snacks the whole night. We couldn't get him to sit down for one minute to even eat. So we ended up chasing him around with food shoving it in his mouth. It was very exhausting for me.
The whole thing was a great success. Jake was able to sumo wrestle and act like he was a kid again. I was able to mingle with good friends and laugh at all the funny dancers. And Nolan was able to run around till we had to go home for bed. So fun! We hope you enjoy the pictures!
