night fever, night fever...

The two posters I made for the event...

We had our annual YW/YM talent show this past week. We planned a 70's theme night and entitled it Wednesday Night Fever. We weren't able to get the church building this year, so it was held in one of the ward member's back yard...which, in my opinion, made it way more fun. It was a perfect evening filled with 70's trivia, disco music, pet rocks, leisure suits, candy from the 70's...not to mention - phenomenal talent. I feel so blessed to be able to work with the youth. They are so pure. So intelligent. So funny. And so gifted. It was a treat to be able to witness each one of them showcase their unique and inspiring talents...oh, and I laughed harder than I had in a long time.

Oh, I love it! And the best part is that you and John actually look like a very good looking couple from the 70s. :) What a fun idea!

I forgot to mention your mad poster skills. I will never forget your "liger" poster you made. That is some serious talent. Your amazing!

To be honest - At first I ddn't even realize you were all in 70's style clothes. You looked hip, johns shirt was a bit wild and I looked at Ruby and thought- I used to wear little outfits just like that when I was little. Then later when I got home.. It all clicked..and now I look at your blog and am reminded of just how absent minded I can be. Shesh. Pay attention Shannon. You all looked so cute.

How fun! I love 70s (and 80s) stuff! The music, the fashion - everything. Love that outfit you were sporting, Nicole. You always look so perfect. And Ruby is growing up so fast! She doesn't look like a baby anymore; rather, a little girl. Hard to believe she's turning 3 next month! By the way, Happy B-day to John on 5/23 and Happy [belated] Anniversary on 5/14.
