Dancing Queen Take 5

Every few months our church hosts a Cotillion for the 12 and 13 yr old boys and girls. The purpose of the cotillions are to teach the kids proper dance etiquette and manners. They also usually have a theme for the type of dances they are instructed in and are basically a whole lot of fun. This was Jordan's third cotillion you can read about the first few here Dancing Queen and Dancing Queen Take 2, Dancing Queen Take 4. You can also read about the Middle School dance HERE where she had her first chance to try out some of her moves. I ended up getting more video than pictures (the lighting was bad, i need a better camera) including some REALLY sweet moments that are sure to make you laugh. None of the videos are very long, so take a minute to watch them, you will be glad you did...especially if you know J and her personality...hilarious!

The theme for this cotillion was western so J broke out her black hat and pink and black boots and was ready to get her dance on! YEEEEEEE HAAAAWW!the lighting is HORRIBLE but clickety to biggafy to see her adorable boots listening intently to the instructor trying not to make eye contact with her partner i had to just take the color out of the the pics and they are still not greathere she is making a face because the boy was talking too muchand as always a little video for your viewing pleasure

these are all pretty short videos

The best part of the night was the drive home and dinner (remember this post?). As soon as we got in the car J wanted to review all of the video and pictures as she jabbered on about the night. She had a blast! She was chattering on about the dances and the new moves she had learned and how certain boys danced better than others and then she said:

J: OH and a boy flirted with me for the first time.
Me: REALLY?!? how did you know he was flirting with you?
J:He smiled in a flirty way and wiggled his eyebrows
Big Daddy: Sounds like flirting to me.
J: Yeah he is probably driving home right now telling his parents that he flirted with a really cute girl tonight.
Me: do you think he was cute?
J: well his teeth were kind of yellow, so not really.
Big Daddy: aww poor kid, maybe he is a nice boy.
J: well i took my time getting ready for the cotillion and I made sure to brush my teeth. He should have done that too.
Me: Jordan! You sound kind of snotty right now, you don't want to sound like a mean girl do you?
J: no! But I do like clean teeth. AND he isn't really my type anyway.
Big Daddy: yeah you like boys who look like your daddy right?
Me: oh yeah little round Mexican boys like Alejandro
J: Yes, but Alejandro asked me to stop liking him so I am going to respect that.
Big Daddy and Me: BwwwwwwwAHhh Ha hahahaha
J: I bet he would be jealous if he knew other boys were flirting with me though. I need to call Grandma and tell her about this.

And then she spent the rest of the short drive to dinner talking to Big Daddy's folks about her night and the blonde boy who wiggled his eyebrow at her. HILARIOUS!!
