Photo Love: Dancing Fools

May 10, 2010

I’ll admit it, my husband is a better (salsa) dancer than I am and that’s a great thing.  He had been taking lessons for a few years and got me started on salsa a few months before our wedding.  My hand eye coordination deficit brain made it difficult at first to do the steps but luckily I got the hang after a while and  looked forward to classes every week.

Gene Kelly & Vera Ellen in “On the Town” from here

I saw this photo and was reminded of how I miss dancing.  We had talked about finding activities here and this definitely fits the bill (and an aerobic exercise that’s fun is so Chic ‘n Cheap!)  Exercise? Fun? Whirling around with my husband?  Sounds good to me.  Just don’t make me do the grapevine – I still can’t handle that!

What activities do you like to do with your partner?

little luxury list

    Oh how I wish I could dance with Bean. Does snuggling and napping count as an activity?

    Too cute! I so adore that you and your husband salsa dance together! I wish I had enough co-ordination to do it. The BF and I, unfortunately, think a good time is trying out a new fabulous restaurant and eating & drinking til our hearts our content. Not the most athletic activity….but oh so much fun.

    Oh you’re much better than me. We like to lay on the couch and watch reality tv 😉

    What a fun activity to do together! I would love to do something like that. My fiance is much more graceful than me on the dance floor, though. Lately, we have been flying kites together. It’s certainly cheap, but I’m not sure how chic it is! It is fun, though 🙂

    I would LOVE to get my husband to attend dance classes with me. Alas I don’t think it’s in the cards. My big goal this year is to get him to go camping. 🙂

    How awesome! If I could only ever one day get my hubs to do that!!!

    And thank you SO MUCH for your amazing comment about Theta Mom on my guest post at BonBon Rose Girls – you ROCK.

    Pre baby the hubs and I used to love going to the gym together…Sigh.

    Salsa dancing sounds like so much fun and quite simply the perfect husband and wife activity!! I think it’s awesome you’re getting back into the swing of it (hehe). I’m looking forward to hearing about your upcoming dancing adventures. 😉

    oh salsa dancing is so fun! i used to take lessons and now I miss it!

    aside from drinking, the boy and i really don’t do any fun activities like that. i’ve tried to get him to run with me, he hates it. and i can’t ride with him b/c i don’t have a bike. but we have fun regardless.

    I love this photo. I’m not at all a dancer myself but I’d love to learn

  • shari @ little blue deer May 11, 2010 at 12:21

    Oh, that’s great! My husband and I took a few ballroom dancing classes just for fun, but we weren’t very good! It was fun though, but our thing that we do together is tennis, we met on the tennis courts and that’s the thing we love to do together! It’s really important to have shared activities, I agree! XO!

    if i was married i’m pretty sure i would tell you sex would be our favorite thing to do together but i guess people want to keep it g-rated around here… 🙂 jk jk jk

    i LOVE dancing – salsa, ballroom, country, hiphop you name it i love doing it. besides modern/mime stuff. too dull for me.

  • Mrs T May 18, 2010 at 06:52

    I would love to learn to salsa. Might have to twist Mr B’s arm off!
