sock hop pictures

[finn's mom]

hey! I just wanted to share a few photos from the fifties sock hop i went to last night. my parents, my aunt and uncle, my step brother and his wife, my mom's best friend and her husband, me, and, one other girl, had so much fun dancing! my parents dance so well together! and, they looked so good in their outfits! hope you guys like them! the dj was awesome, apparently he's been a radio personality and on the party scene for over forty years! he was a huge flirt and embarassed the heck out of me a couple of times, but, he was a great dj! thanks for all the suggestions when i asked for help getting ready for this. i found the pants, shirt and scarf all for less than $15 and it's all stuff i will wear again. it's not a poodle skirt, but, it was fun!

this is me and my uncle rick and aunt sheila



me and my mom's best friend boogying!

Sounds neat! Cool pictures. You can surely "see" you in your mother. She's adorable.

Thanks for the pics!! Wow, that must have been so much fun!! I know I would love such a party too, because I've always loved to dance. In fact, my hubby and I, we met during a dance course for singles . What sounds so great to me to is that you were able to go dancing with your parents!! Neat

I know, I love that they include me! And, they love that I want to go. I've gone a few times with them. I can never dance enough and they have always danced so well together. They need to get out and dance more, but, it's hard to find a place that has dancing like they want to do, and, not just fifties, but, like band music. It's great exercise! And, the smiles on their faces just about makes me burst. They got applause a couple of times after walking off the dance floor, it makes me proud!

I know, aren't they the best? One day, I'll get an outfit like that. My mom ordered hers awhile back, and, has had the shoes for about twenty years. She always just gets a different top and tweaks the accessories a little bit to make the outfit a little different each time. Everyone looked so cute!

The pants you wore were call peddle pushers in those days. Cool that they are back in style again..

I love your pictures and you are just a younger version of your MOTHER!!! I am tickled to hear it went well and everyone had so much fun!

Yeah, they are just called capris, now. My mom used to call them peddle pushers (I always thought it was petal pushers! ) when I was a kid. And, yeah, I'm pretty much a clone of my mom. And, for the most part, I'm happy with that.

And, to the comments about my parents, they are a lot of fun. My dad is cooool.
