Adam at BYU Nationals

Last Thursday Adam participated at BYU in a national amateur ballroom championship. He danced the West Coast Swing with his friend Alyse Wilde. If you click on the title it will take you straight to YouTube to watch him dance. I drove down with him early that afternoon and we had a good time together watching the other events. Our favorite event was the team formations. I wish I had thought of videotaping them, but I didn't. I guess I was in too much awe. There were 11 teams, each with incredible costumes (that's what Mom first noticed) and outstanding dance moves (that's what Adam noticed). To watch them do all their fancy dance moves in synchronization was truly amazing and phenomenal. The music they chose was equally distinguished. We heard everything from "Hairspray" selections, older Broadway hits to Queen, Van Halen and Star Trek-type funky techno whatever. It was just a COOL event all the way around -- something I'd love to take my kids to, if just to watch the formations, the next time around.
