Wedding Dancers

(Little David Last year)

This past Friday we went to a Wedding Reception up in the Denver area. It was quite a fun event and really classy. It was held at a country club not too far away from the Temple. We went there going that Brooklyn was going to see her very special little friend... Little David (he is called little David because Brooklyn has an uncle David).

Little David is a boy she has known since birth. Even after moving from Idaho Cameron's work kept on throwing us back together with little David's family. Last summer they played all the time in Florida (and also the summer we were in Minnesota) and she is now old enough to miss her friends and asks about him all the time.

At first he didn't know what to think of her. So we ate our food and then they went out to the Foyer to play. Brooklyn had ask me earlier in the car if she could dance with David like a prince.

So she asked him to dance and he said, "I'm too full!" At first I saw the rejection in her face. But she quickly recovered when they started to dance (with a little encouragement). I wish my camera was working because it was priceless. She was beaming from ear to ear with pure joy and he had the "I can't believe I am doing this look." They danced a lot and ran around a lot. Her chasing him and then pulling in down as he held onto the railing of the banister.

She got the courage and asked the 6'6 groom to dance. She barely went past his knees. Little David came up and karate chopped the groom's hand off of Brooklyn. The groom looks over at me with his hands up in the air and had a big smile on his face. It seems that David didn't like another "guy" to be dancing with her. Brooklyn of course wanted to dance more with the groom and he said he couldn't because David wanted to dance with her. She was happy! And went off to dance/play with David some more.

The car ride home Brooklyn kept on wishing that David could like closer instead of Arkansas. The first "crush" is always the hardest to get over...

Here are some pictures of them together from the past.
