So we had our annual talent show at our church this year. Last year, when McKay was four, after the talent show was over he was so sad and upset that he didn't get to go up on the stage and share a talent. He wanted to go up on the the stage and show everyone how fast he could run. Since that talent show he has been looking forward to sharing his talent. Back in the spring he developed a new skill for Hula hooping, so since that time he has talked about hula hooping for the church talent show.
Well, about 2 weeks ago he decided he did not want to do anything for the talent show. He was getting super shy about getting up in front of people. I kept asking him and he was pretty adamant about not doing it, so 2 days before the talent show I asked again and he said, "no". So I took him off the list. I told Mike he wasn't going to do anything, well Mike took matters into his own hands and offered McKay $2 to do his hula hooping. Two dollars and McKay was good to go.
I helped Mike and McKay pick out some music to hula to. McKay was not feeling it on a lot of the music, no, no, no..... then he heard dynamite, and it was a definite YES. He was feeling the music while he was practicing, doing different moves every time he practiced. This kid enjoys a good beat!
I went to Toys R' Us and bought another hula hoop just in case Ethan decided to hula hoop too. Ethan at the last minute agreed to do it too. Even though they seemed hesitant to get up in front of everyone, they were actually pretty excited. Here is the video footage I got. Sorry it isn't the best filming.
