After Mr. Lion and I finished our first dance, it was time for me to dance with Papa Lion. I had chosen the song years ago, before Mr. Lion and I were even engaged. My dad wanted to be surprised, so I kept it a secret until that moment. As soon as Mr. Lion and I finished dancing, the DJ started playing St. Judy’s Comet by Paul Simon, a song my dad used to sing to me as a lullaby when I was little.
The reason we’re laughing in this photo is because my dad responded to his surprise with, “Oh! Far out!” I mouthed “far out” as he said those words, because I knew that’s how he would respond.
Then, Mr. Lion danced with his mom to a song she had chosen, Wind Beneath My Wings.
At first, they talked and laughed together…
Then, MIL Lion lost it.
But, of course, she still looked beautiful!
Are you dancing with your parent(s)? What song did you choose?
Catch up on the Lioness recaps here!

Awww…how sweet. And your MIL is gorgeous. Can’t believe she has a son that age 
Love that the song you chose for your Dad’s dance was a lullaby he would sing you (and Paul Simon!) I chose Til There Was You sung by The Beatles because my dad used to sing it to me to sleep at night!
Love your song!! I haven’t picked mine out yet. Still have time to find just the right one.
oh lord this dance is gonna be so emotional for me and my dad! I need to pick a song that wont leave me a blubbering mess….My pick so far is Led Zepplin All My Love…
Oh, that’s so sweet that you chose something so meaningful.

I say "wicked" and "y’all" in the same sentence and I like to drink sweet tea with my lobster. Mr. Lion and I are both former Floridians now living in Atlanta, which fortunately is still SEC country...Go Gators! We both love baseball, coffee, traveling, cooking, and playing Words with Friends with each other on our iPhones all day long. I’m very passionate about the things and the people I love, and I tend to plan things with all of my heart...our wedding, of course, is no different! Oh, and also Mr. Lion is a first generation American of Cuban descent. I may look more like Lucy than Ricky, but I’m doing my best to incorporate some Latin elements into our vintage-garden-Southern wedding!
