You wanna feel old?
Take your first-grader to Family Fun Night on the field at his school. The big party with the four moonbounces and the cotton candy and the face painting and the DJ who's booming loud enough for the whole flippin' neighborhood to hear. (Those wacky Catholics!)
Get your dinner at the barbecue, escort the kids to the moonbounces, socialize with the grown-ups. And then, when the line dancing starts and the DJ yells something about everybody getting a prize, race up to the front of the field with your kids to make sure they don't get trampled.
You're there...you might as well dance.
YMCA. Check.
Macarena. Check.
Electric Slide. Check.
I Like to Move It. Check.
Shout. Double check.
Cha Cha Slide.
what the hell...?
New Dance Alert! New dance to a song you've never even heard of before!! And all the kids are doing it! EVEN YOUR KID! WHO'S SIX!!!!!
Come home, watch the damn thing on You Tube, and convince yourself it's not all that bad. You were the queen of Fell's Point back in the day, dammit...a regular at Sanctuary! You had the moves! The clothes! Every! Single! Song!
And now...a minivan in the driveway. You're the dorky mom trying to keep up to some hip-hop song. Ack.
Who ever heard of a Catholic event without beer, anyway? *grumble*

LOL, the first time i did the Cha Cha Slide was at my BestFriend's wedding and that was almost 6 yrs ago now. Daynah learned the cha cha slide last year in school, evidently for physical activity. We do it so much around our house i have it on my Ipod :)
I don't know it either. They did it at Aubrey's bday and she didn't know it. So don't feel too bad,LOL!
