Last Friday there was a "sock hop" at the kids school. I hadn't planned on going, but then the kids got invited, so they were going. I still was going to stay home and then the parent who was taking me informed me that they were just going to drop them off. Since I knew the person who planned the event, I called her and told her what was happening and that I'd be up there so my kids wouldn't be unsupervised.
I went up to the school and joined the kids in their festival of fun. Cman was in his rolled up jeans and t-shirt with spiked hair. N was sporting her long skirt, t-shirt, tennis shoes, bobby socks and pony tail! I had on blue jeans and a blouse. They competed in a hula contest (N did pretty good, my mom has passed on the hula gift to her) and the limbo (Cman impressed me here...he'll have to show you how low he can go sometime!) Between games N and her friends danced and she danced with me too! This was the first time I have been to a school dance. (Proms do not count because they are off campus and they have only 1 or 2 grades.)

So you are saying that I WILL FINALLY get to go to a dance...now that I have children in school....and I am the MOM...and my mother can't say anything about it? LOL!!!
Sounds like you guys had a great time and lots of FUN!
I've never been to a school dance. That sounds like a lot of fun!
Whoa Nelly!
Looks like we need someone to supervise T.
I always wanted to go to a sock hop.
I guess I have never been to a school dance either. I went to prom off campus. I feel stupid when I dance.
I AM stupid when I dance. Think Frankenstien meets John Travolta's Super-Sized cousin.
Maybe dancin' is like talkin'... Good words and bad words both. Those were good words!
I never had a school that had dances. I would have loved it. Not sure how my folks would have handled that. My dad loved to dance and go to dances when he was a teen. Mom wasn't allowed. My dad might have taken your tactic - I could go and so would he! Good one.
