One of my goals this year (the year I turn forty) is to not take myself so seriously. I think many of us avoid opportunities that could make life a little more enjoyable because we think that other people care that we might look ridiculous. The only people that might notice are the ones sitting on the sidelines, and they are too busy worrying about themselves than to give you a second thought anyway.
So.
To that end, I recorded my kids and I doing something we enjoy doing – dance games on the Wii.
And not only did I enjoy the hour I spent dancing (if I’m allowed to call what I was doing dancing), I have been further entertained by watching the video back. I bet no one laughs as hard as I did, except maybe Trisha.
Ok now, point me in the direction of one of those reality dance shows, I’m gonna try out since Wipeout never contacted me about my application.
For bonus points, can anyone name the song the title of this post comes from?
About Kim
Good, I know what we’re doing this Sunday! Wii Dance :)
Kim, I love it!!!! I for one am not nearly as brave as you and don’t think I could ever bring myself to post what I REALLY look like breakin a sweat to Just Dance or Country Dance. Wouldn’t it be fun though to have a dancing competition with a bunch of blogging mamas :) That would be a sight to see.
That’s cute and funny! Your son was totally cracking me up!
I think you are too hard on yourself. You actually are not bad, lol. It was entertaining, and good for you for not taking yourself too seriously.
Fun! Jake has got some moves, he must have gotten them from you!
I need to do this with my son. He keeps wanting me to play with him, and I do, often, but haven’t tried any dancing ones yet. I need the extra exercise during winter anyway, and you look like you’re having fun!
It really was fun even though I have no rhythm!
Well, it did sort of look like you were doing “The Safety Dance” at some point. ;)
ding ding ding LOL!
Seriously almost peed laughing so hard!
Come on over, I challenge you to do better!
oh boy. I am trying to come up w/ something witty. But. Words. Wont. Come.
Hey you try and follow those moves and not look awkward. Seriously, some of them CAN’T be done by anyone but a cartoon.
Hey at least i can provide comic relief right?
There should be a warning on this post. Do not eat food while watching. I almost choked on a walnut because I started laughing. Love this video.
Damn, it would have gone viral had watching my video led you to choke.
