Day 221

Last fall Rick and I bought a groupon for 2 dance lessons at a studio in KC.  Tonight we finally got around to using it.  I was a little nervous going in, because it was a private dance lesson and all the attention would be on us, and Rick was nervous he wouldn't be good... but it was really, really fun.  Our teacher was super nice and really good at breaking it down for us, and teaching us a bunch of stuff.  We learned the basic 'push-pull' and then we learned a bunch of turns and spins, too.  Our teacher told us these were swing moves.  I think I had the easiest part because I just had to follow and poor Rick had to remember everything.  By the end we were pretty good.

Next week we're going back for our second lesson and we're going to learn a romantic dance.  Surprisingly, Rick is really excited about this bc he hates doing the slow dance sway at weddings haha

After our lesson Rick had scouted out an El Salvadorian restaurant nearby for dinner.  From the outside it was a little sketchy, but the food was awesome.  I got enchiladas and Rick got their special dish, pusitas (sp?), both were very good.  And it was super cheap.  Our whole dinner cost $13, so we left the waitress a really good tip because she was so nice and we came in right at closing.
