Centerpieces.


Entrance...you can see a little bit of the red carpet.

Students and teachers join together for the "Cha-Cha slide."

These girls l-o-v-e to pose!

Mrs. Custer break'n it down with the girls.

Hollywood starlets...me, Theresa, Julie, and Rondi.

Two of my sweeties looking cute as ever!

The night was a success! We put a lot of work into getting the gym ready, and it was worth it. The kids loved it. They came walking in on the red carpet, looking all svelte and dolled up.

Halfway through the night we gave out superlatives that had been voted on the previous day. There was a tie for best dancer, so we had a dance off. That was pretty fun. After the awards, everyone hit the dance floor and worked it. (big time.)

The lighting was awful, so most of my pictures were dark. I think Julie probably got some better shots, because she took some earlier in the night when it was still light outside. Cash was with me the first few minutes (waiting for dad to pick him up) and all the people/music/party horns were pretty much freaking him out. I had to hold him the entire time. Once Andre got there, it was getting too dark for good shots.

My team of 5th grade teachers decided to "Hollywood it up" as Julie said, and we wore black with boas. We were totally glam.

Hope you enjoy the peek into our shin dig!

ambersunsets Oh, these pictures really capture the spirit of the dance! You're right. All the work was worth it. I'm still recouping, so I'll post mine tomorrow.
ps No, I didn't get better shots. The only really good ones were the portraits I took outside.

focussed fun fun fun!!!!......This night must have meant so much to the kids. Its stuff like this that teachers do which often just goes unappreciated. you guys have obviously put some much time and effort into making it a wonderful night for these kids. Congratulations to you and Julie. You both looked like hotties btw ;)
