PROM DETAILS

I've been told

that i was a bit

remiss in posting

prom pictures.

Then I was asked

the ?question?

as to why Jo

had her picture

taken with a cow.

I am now going to

clear this matter up

First---

we need to go over

the fine details--

the hair,

shoes,

flowers

and nails.

Ahhh,

it truly is in the details

that make it all work.

While Jo wanted

new shoes and

new jewelery,

I went with the adage that

"good was good enough"

and

if she really felt

she needed

something else

she could

pay for it herself.

All of a sudden they seemed to be just fine.

I love compromise

Considering that i am not a "hair doing" person--I think i did a pretty good job on Jo's up do. Her hair is a bit tricky in that it is not that long and is straight as a bone and resistant to curls. The curling iron I bought at the fair a few years back has been worth every penny i spent on it. I love the fact that it actually keeps the curls in, that and LOTS of bobby pins. It is amazing how dark her hair has gotten over the years--I am having a hard time considering her a blond these days.

Now about the COW.........

Everyone needs something to make an evening truly memorable-- in this case it was a cow (for coronation it was the whole T.P. thing.) While Cinderella had her mice that took her to the ball-- this was their form of transportation.

{O.K. Not really but it makes the story more interesting.}

This was her dates (grandma's) cow and with much

encouragement

that the cow was indeed harmless,

she agreed

{with reservation}

to approach the cow for a picture.

Truly........

does it get much cutier than this?
