Stroll on down to the barn, friends,
This old thing never looked so good!
Nod hello to a cousin,
Put your arm round your sister,
The guys all line up in a row.
Then toes start a tappin',
And skirts start to swirlin',
And the ladies they strut and twirl.
Little ones join in,
Along with couples young and old.
Take hands with your neighbors,
Shake off your weary labors,
It's Barn Dance Time!
P.S. my sincere apologies to mr and mrs A. for using you as the "old couple". someone had to do it....
Lots of other great Vacation Stories! Go check 'em out!

So, was this the engagement party?
That looks SO fun! Makes me want to throw a party... I don't have a barn, but I'm sure I have enough Christmas lights to string all over the back yard!
Wow, Lis, you're quite a photographer! Yeah, Jenny, you should have been there. It was lots of fun!
I love them! I really like pictures with action and still in them. :)
Wow, Lisi, I feel like I was there! These are awesome action pictures. Thanks for sharing such a fun event!
i love dances like these! i wish i could drag aaron to them more, but as the kids (katie mainly) get a little older it'll be easier. the pics are beautiful. what kind of camera do you use? is it just a point and shoot or is it a fancier one with all the zooms and stuff (i have no idea what i'm talking about!)
canningmama, thanks for stopping by, I couldn't access your profile to find your blog or I'd have returned the favor! Hope you check back by :)
My camera is what I would call a "step-up" from a point and shoot. It's a Cannon Power Shot S3. It' does have some pretty fancy features and settings, but I'm still definitely a novice at using them. Mostly I still just fool around with the various presets...
Love the story your pictures tell! Fun times!
I loved this post the first time and it was so fun to see it again! Looks like such an awesome time together!
Love the movement photos! Mine is here.
I didn't brave spending the night with the baby who was 6 weeks old at the time. My son and husband stayed and my son, who was just a little over 2, did really well camping....Good luck!! :)
Wow! Love all those action shots. I can almost hear the music......
That looked totally awesome. Great job with the commentating too. Cute!
This looks so so fun! :-) I want to go to a barn dance!
I love the action and movement in your photos; it makes the dance come alive! We're in a suburb of a big city, so we only get to READ about things like this; thanks for giving me an insider's view!
Very fun. Your pictures capture that well. Your mother sounds like an amazing woman to do this. The barn is beautiful.

We don't have barn dances around here, and I'm thinking we really should. Your pictures definitely make it look like a lot of fun!
