ULX!!!!!!
This past weekend a group of us from up here in Rexburg got to go down to Salt Lake and attend the Utah Lindy Exchange. If you didn't know, Last semester I learned The dance of all swing dancing; Lindy Hop. Needless to say I have completely fallen in love with it and just can't get enough. I even asked for swing shoes for my birthday.
Anyway, Kreed drove with just our friend Kadie and I in the car. We there on Friday at about 8:00 pm, went to Walmart to brush our teeth and get food, then got our swing on. That night we danced from 8 to midnight in a fun ballroom then from 1 to about 3:30 in the morning we danced again in a dance studio. The next day we got together with another car of BYU-I students and toured the Conference Center. After that we took a nap then headed off to another night of amazing swing dancing. I don't think I have ever been in such a fun environment in my entire life. It was like being a kid in a candy store. We were surrounded by a full ballroom of people who share the same passion for swing dancing as we do. I even got to run into my cousin Adam Thompson, and dance with him a few times. That had to have been the best weekend of my life so far.
The only think that could pass up that weekend was when Kreed and I decided to date officially this Wednesday. : ) I am still smiling uncontrolably.
