We went to the Greek Festival with some of our friends from Sunday school on Friday night. It was great to catch up with them. Life has been so busy lately and the summer always leaves people with different schedules so it’s hard to get together. We had some great Greek food and then Hudson was ready to “get down” out of his stroller.
I couldn’t really let him walk around the festival because he’s kind of a wild man. But I had seen a big dance floor under a tent when we arrived and lots of kids were playing under there. So I decided to take Hudson back to the tent to see if he’d just run around under there.
He did more than run around! The boy was feeling the rhythm. As soon as he heard the music, he couldn’t contain himself. My sweet friends were able to get a little bit of video for us and I’m so happy they did!
Hudson did this dancing bit for at least half an hour. He just wouldn’t stop. His little cheeks were so red and he was having the time of his life. The funniest part was that he had his Baby Einstein DVD case (his newest security blanket) and wouldn’t put it down the whole time he was dancing!
It was a great weekend in college football. We had lots of fun at the game and I got to see a fun blog friend! This world is so small! Ashley was sitting right behind me at the game and came over to say hello.
The Gamecocks had some scary moments, but we won and we’re even more excited to go play Auburn next weekend. TC has never been to Auburn and it’s one of my favorite away games, so I can’t wait! And how about the Auburn/Clemson game? We got home from our game just in time to see the end Β and TC and I had to really control ourselves to stop from screaming and jumping around the house. We were so excited!
I hope y’all had a great weekend. We had a hard time getting out of bed this morning, but Hudson is at school (hopefully having a great time) and I’m folding mountains of laundry.

Yuuum, gyros. And what a cute video.
Anne says
That video is to DIE for precious! And you look fabulous, Erin. So fabulous that I’m going to ignore the “jumping and screaming” reaction to our heart-breaker of a game…
PinkSass says
Hudson is so adorable.
Maggie [The Freckled Citizen] says
Yesssss, I love toddler dancing! My nephew Liam starts groovin’ whenever that iPad commercial featuring the piano app comes on. It is flat-out hilarious, and just impossible not to be in a good mood when he’s boppin’ around. Now, even home alone, whenever that commercial comes on I just grin!
Lauren Kelly says
That video of Hudson made me smile so big!!! The cutest thing EVER!!! That boy has got some groove. And SO fun that you got to meet Ashley at the game. She is the sweetest thing EVER!! π And now you have me craving a gyro!!!

Kate says
There are few baby things I find more adorable than the Mini New Balance Sneakers! I love his quick feet – he’s a maaaaaaaaaaaniac! maaaaaaaaaaniac! on the floor!
Samma says
Hey! Is that a Target Tucker shirt? If so, I have it also! Um, Erin, watching Hud’s little booty shake in his New Balances is dangerous, I tell you! When I see him in his lion costume, it’s going to be trouble! Let the baby fever commence! Hee.
MeganTree says
Such a cute little dancing baby!!! And SO fun that you and Ashley got to meet up!!
All-American Jess says
That video is precious! I love Hudson dancing and then whenever another kid got too close, he’d stop and look at them like, “My dance space…. your dance space…. there is plenty of room for all of us.”
Emily (The Culinary Couple) says
There is nothing better than little dancing machines like yours. He will be a heart breaker one day!
Ally @ ShabbyPrincess says

Caroline says
OH MY GOSH, H looks so precious in that video! I can’t believe we didn’t run into each other there…( I mean I guess I can…there were thousands of people) but we ate right beside that tent! So much fun!
Keshet Shenkar says
Ha, that video is so cute!!

Cowgirl Lawyer says
Hudson is so cute. I love the video! Also, I love Greek festivals!!! My hometown church holds ours in July then my local church has theirs right after Labor day. I’m actually traveling 4 hours for another town’s festival next weekend!
NewTeacherWife says
That video is so precious! He is too cute. At least he won’t be the wallflower at school dances!
Leigha Pettigrew says
That video is SO cute! That just made my day!
ACH says
What a great Auburn v. Clemson game on Saturday (with an awesome outcome, of course)! Can’t wait to see you and the little dancing machine tomorrow at lunch!! I had another laugh out loud moment at work watching that video. xoxo
Kayla says
Have fun at Auburn next weekend! I went there last year to watch WVU play them (sadly, it monsoon-rained and WVU left defeated) but Auburn is a beautiful little town! I hope ya’ll beat the pants off of Auburn though. They’re heads are a tad (wayy) too big!
Ashley says
ooohhhhh my goodness, that little booty shaking is too adorable for words!! I love how he would follow the bigger boys around with his eyes too π
AbsoluteMom says
I can’t think of anymore words to describe the cuteness quotient of this video, so I will tell you this: when the vid first starts, he looks just like your father. Usually I see your husband in Hudson’s looks, but this time, I see your dad very strongly. (I’ve seen a pic or two of him on your blog.)
There’s nothing like the pure innocence you see on a child’s face.
Ashley says
So glad I got to meet you! And I hope to bump into you again next time we’re sitting in those seats! : ) We listened to the Auburn game on the way home and were SO excited! What a great ending! I’m already geared up for this weekend! GO COCKS!
Laura Yates says
i adore greek festivals! i used to go to the one in houston every year when I lived there…it was always the best food and atmosphere!
Rebecca (Craving Simplicity) says
That video is TOO cute!!!
Makeup by Tricia says
Hudson is just too cute. I just wanted to tell you, I showed Sebastian the video of Hudson dancing and he started pointing to him and dancing too.
Megan says
I love in the middle when he stomps his feet and shakes his head like he just can’t stand the excitement…too funny.
Melissa says
I think babies dancing are my favourite thing to watch in the world. So happy, they are!
What a cutie Hudson is!
MissS says
adorable!
CAwife says
What a great video, he’s so cute!!!
Betsy says
Yay! So glad the Gamecocks won and so glad you and Ashley got to meet up. I can’t believe how close your seats are! π
Happiness Is... says
That dancing video might be the cutest thing I’ve ever seen – love it! Makes me excited to have a boy π
Brittany says
What a cute video!!! He looks so amazed by the other kids too. My parents have a video of my sister when she was about that age, maybe a little older, and she was spinning in circle to the music. Every once in a while she would fall over, but just get back up and start again. I vaguely remember it and just laughing the whole time (we’re 10 yrs apart).
Sarah says
I LOVE going to the Greek festival here… Always so much fun, and you are SO right about the food- aMAZing!
Hudson is TOO precious! Cutest video ever!
Wendy says
Beyond adorable!
Marina says
This is just too cute Erin! I love that he carries around that DVD case- it’s funny the little things they become attached to!
Catherine A says
Oh my, that is adorable! What a fun, happy boy!!
Lauren @ Adventures of a Southern Newlywed says
