80's Music

Today has been such a fun day. I love to have dancing parties with my boys. We have them multiple times a week and sometimes even do it when the daycare kids are over. I almost always let them pick which CD they want to dance to and today Trenton picked a CD I haven't listened to in YEARS. He picked a Best of the 80's CD that came with my parents computer that they bought, oh, I don't know like in 1995 or 1996. My brother, Paul, and my cousins, Kari, Steven, and Melissa, and I used to dance to this CD for HOURS on end. We always did it when my dad was gone to work so we could use his stereo and we would take turns making sure the speaker didn't get into the "red zone". Just a side note, my dad always told us that if the speakers ever got into the said red zone, they would blow, so we took it literally and thought they would BLOW UP. We were very careful for that reason (we didn't want to be the reason we no longer would have a home to live in). We had so much fun and so when I put the CD in today and had to stand there, dancing with my boys and just laugh and laugh because of all the memories it brought back. Now, today, I got to dance with my two boys and make more fun memories with that same CD. Thanks Trenton for the unknown flashback of memories that you brought me, and thanks to my brother and my cousins for making those fun memories with me when we were little. (Thanks to my mom and my Aunt Kathi too for not wanting to kill us-I just realized how irritating that music can be when there happens to be one song that is our favorite to dance to over and over and over again one right after the other. My boys picked the same one.) :-)
