For a fun time, crank up some dance music on your stereo. Grab some flashlights, and in a dark room….. get your groove on!!

Be sure to set your camera to keep the shutter open for a few seconds, and snap some super-fun photos!!

Dance, dance, dance!!

Awwwwwww…. yeeeaaaaahhhhh!!!!

Weeeeeeeeee!!!

Added bonus — tuckered out kiddos ready for bed.

Have fun!

    Dear Valerie,

    If the neighbors didn’t think that we you were nuts before, they certainly do now.

    Love,
    Mark

      Whatever happened to that disco ball and those rising platforms? Good times.

        I gave them to that guy who installed a pole in his living room to show support for fire fighters. He was really keen on getting them installed for some reason!

      It was awesome, and a good workout too! The girls couldn’t stop giggling (and neither could I)! 🙂

    I can just see myself with a broken leg, from crashing over a bench, or toy in the dark, while trying to get the perfect picture 🙂

      LOL With all the flashlights spinning around, it wasn’t that dark (think 70’s disco), but I recommend setting up a tripod (in our case, Mark on the sofa) for picture taking, and then you can join in the dancing fun too!

    Sigh, it doesn’t get dark soon enough for that to work here right now, but come “winter.”

    My kids are in bed before dark right now, but I will definitely keep this in mind. I love the pictures.

    I love Mark’s comment too! Our neighbors certainly think we are nuts. WE are always doing something crazy.

    I just had to comment on this because I haven’t heard the phrase “tripping the lights fantastic” since the days I spent with trollops in the ’20s. Those were good times. We tripped the light fantastic on the sidewalks of New York.
