Because of the craziness of planning two weddings, Mike's mother enlisted the help of their cousin Natalie. She stayed at the Johnson's home for over a week, helping with planning, decorations and making all three of the bridesmaid dresses. Amidst all of the wedding hoopla, we were all able to set aside some good ol' family time by learning the art of Pole Dancing. Natalie is a pole exercising instructor (and yes, she is a member) and was kind enough to not only bring her pole, but let everyone have a try.
Here Mike is being taught by our pro, Natalie.
The correct way to slide down the pole...
and the not so correct way.
Here is how Mike ended up. He does get a gold star for a valiant effort!
Matt working on his Flagpole move. Not so bad, right?!?!
Travis doing his own moves. Don't you just love the black socks?
Even Dad got on and gave it a try.
Don't tell anyone, but I think he actually enjoyed it!
Steve actually held on the longest. Good job, Kid!
We even let Brayden try to do it. He may need some practice though.
Thanks goes to Natalie for such a fun Sunday evening. I do have to say it was kind of odd to see a stripper pole in my In-Law's living room. It was quite fun and crazy none the less!
