Awesome time at the Zombie Walk!

This past weekend my son and I were in a zombie walk to help raise money for the food pantry. Following the walk we did the "Thrill the World" Zombie Dance. The dance was a world wide event that might be shown on the Oprah Winfrey show this Wednesday!!

We had an awesome time! It was so much fun getting dressed up and walking around. I was really nervous about doing the dance because I'm not a dancer, never have been. Zak and I took a class the night before the event to help us learn the moves. I had been trying to teach myself using the tutorial videos they had online, but I just wasn't getting it. So we went to the class and after just a few times going through the routine, I was much better at it. Zak was REALLY good at it, but he's young and able to move better than his old mom...lol. There were some really nice and helpful people there giving lots of encouragement through the class.

There were over 100 people dressed up like zombies to do the dance. It was a bit crowded, but it was soooo fun!! I hope they do it again next year. Hopefully we can get a group of friends to dress up and join us!!

So, on to some pics and vids of the fun event...

Here we are before being zombified..

This lady was cool... but also one of the scariest looking zombies there..



This lady was in our dance class. I loved her costume!!



This is Professor Auld, one of my sons teachers. She was the one to get the zombie walk going. She also was the makeup artist for anyone who needed zombifying..



Some pics in the bookstore/makeup room...lol...











Here is Dr. Seals. Zak talks about him alot and enjoys having him for a teacher. He was an awesome zombie!! The guy in the background is Seth..



When the walk was about to begin all the zombies gathered in front of the bookstore...

After the dance Professor Auld sat down and took a break...



These girls had them start up the music again after the dance was over so they could do the dance again..
