I know that this is controversial, but we had a money dance. We were on the fence about it for a while but then everyone started asking us if we were going to do it. I don’t mean just my family where the money dance is tradition, I mean Mr. Joey’s family and our friends. When I realized that Mr. Joey’s family had done the money dance before, I was OK with us doing it because I knew we wouldn’t have to explain it to people.
I have to say, the money dance was actually one of the funnest things we did. I didn’t think Mr. Joey would enjoy it, but he did. And we were both surprised by the people who came forward to dance with us.
For some reason, the men really like to dance with Mr. Joey and the women like to dance with me. A little odd?
This is what your high school teachers did on the weekend
The weird thing about the money dance is that I thought we’d make maybe $100 during the dance. In reality, we made A LOT more than that. We used some of the money on our honeymoon and some on something really special I’ll tell you about later. And yes, someone pinned a Subway card on Mr. Joey.
Anyone else going to do the money dance?
