So in addition to our Thanksgiving Day festivities, we also celebrated my Mom's 75th Birthday. We danced the night away and through the decades. The Kanarraville Town Hall has probably never seen such a "wilde" night--with "no alcohol, no smoking and no fowl language :-)"
Katelyn and Cathy donning their 1980's gay apparel and me dressed like Adam's third grade teacher-representing the 1990's. (Mom's outfit is timeless).
At age 75 I guess you start all over!
No one loves a dance like Andy!
Oh, the magic of helium!
Looks like Jordan is about to break out into the Haka!
Lucky called a few square dances--hmmm, maybe part of our problem is that we were dancing in a circle!
Adam was quick to remind the group that the next 75th Celebration would be mine!
(As always, I didn't get the memo that the color scheme for our outfits was black and pink, instead I look like a tree!)
Can I only brag on the incredible talent that the grandkids brought to the evening--Lawrence Welk would be so impressed!
Yes, that is Aunt Cheryl wearing my Junior Prom dress AND IT IS ZIPPED clear to the top--makes me a little ill, of course Andy looks dashing as always in his green leisure suit.
Heather and Dave doing their "Dancing With the Stars" routine!
Were all together again! (Jake there has to be a smart butt in every family photo! We will forgive you this once because it was REALLY your birthday that day!)

Yay! Thank you for the post. Now the fam doesn't seem so far away. Geeze, Jake has grown again since I saw him last...and it has barely been a month. The party looks like it was a blast. I am sad I wasn't there to shake it in eighties garb for grandma. The whole party looked like a blast. I guess she will just have to make it to 100 so we can do it again. Thanks so much for photo-ing for me. I means the world!
How fun!! What a great idea for a party! I have to admit, I think my nephews were the cutest, especially Eli dancing with a balloon.
There was no fowl language, but I think we did do the chicken dance...or maybe I just heard the song sometime that evening! It was a blast, thanks for sharing the 80's dress with me, it wouldn't have been the same without it!
Thanks for the awesome post. Dale took all those pictures, but I have yet to see any of them! It was a fun party because of what every person brought. The decorations were perfect, the food was yummy, the music and dancing were great, and those outfits were irreplaceable! I'll see if I can manage to still squeeze into your prom dress at your upcoming 75th party! Thanks again for documenting this all so well.
It was a great party! Thanks to everyone for dancing and dressing up!
