PROM 09

I promised my daughter

i would be better about posting her dance pictures--

she will be shocked

when she sees that i have her prom pictures up.

After all, she is still waiting for me to blog about

coronation and MORP

unfortunately those events happened at times

when i was WAY busy

not that that isn't always the case,

just some days/weeks are worse than others

That my friends is the story of my life.....

Prom #1 is over and done...
It was a week earlier than i had planned--
hers it not actually till this week
and we are not sure if she is going or not.

This weekend she had the chance to attend her "friends"
She was excited to be attending another schools since she has friends there as well.
I am assuming she had a great time since she stayed out late and was all happiness and smiles when she came in

I love her eyelashes
--seriously--
they are soooo long and thick!

This is the hair we ended up with--up until an hour earlier we still weren't sure how it was going to turn out....we tried a few things and this was what we liked the best...

Thanks to her aunt for the great jewelry--she gave her quite a few options and this was what she ended up with...her aunt insisted that she wear the earrings...she NEVER wears earrings...i am glad that she listens to someone else,because if i had suggested them (which i have in the past) the answer would have been "NO"

even when she makes goofy faces like this
the earrings look good

she decided to add the gloves last night
--kinda fun--
not so practical...
--but fun--

I love this color on her....did i mention the moment of panic when i was zipping up the dress and the zipper decided to split---AHHHHH---luckily my mom was there and we were able to get it back down again and worked with it till it zipped up correctly--the next option was to sew her into the dress....

And how is this for composition? Notice her date in the mirror? He was so patient while I took pictures of her...normally i would have done that prior to his arrival but we were running a bit late...

And the flowers--matched oh sooo perfectly....

And how is this for a cute couple--
she swears they are just friends

you gotta love a guy that you can wear heels with

Both Grandma's came by to see her before she left

with her heels on she manages to tower over the both of them--she loves her grandma's and we are soooo lucky that she has them both so close--something i didn't have the luxury of having

And even i got into a picture---good thing since her dad wasn't here to see her off--we had to play divide and conquer tonight--and since he doesn't do hair, he got the pleasure of attending the chili cook off....

And there goes my baby...
so grown up...
all dressed up....
not even looking back....
I think this is a sign of things to come....
