Well, our darling little girl went to her Junior Prom this last week-end. We finally get to take a reprieve from her saying constantly "Prom is almost here"... "Prom is tomorrow" .... "I am so excited!" Yes, we get a break from that for a season. Anyway, it was a crazy busy week-end, but we fit everything in, in the end. Morgan had a track meet Saturday morning, so we had to go and get her so she would have time to get ready. We also had to go and get her boutonniere before they closed also. Well, the story here, she was late ordering her boutonniere, so she only had the choice of pink, red or yellow. She was supposed to get cream. So she thought that yellow would be the closest thing to cream. Boy was she surprised when she got a nice "bright" sunshine yellow flower for her date. Needless to say, you will not see the flower in the pictures, because I wouldn't let her put it on him until the pictures were over. (we even pulled some of the greenery to the front to mask the brightness ;o)).
A little story about the dress. She really wanted a dress she could keep, but I wasn't going to pay $400 for one. So we looked on line and at a few stores on line... really nothing modest. So then we were looking at a mail order place but that was going to take at least 4 weeks and we only had 5. So I was inspired to look on KSL classifieds, at used dresses people were trying to get rid of. I found this dress that very day, we got a hold of the seller, and went that very afternoon. It fit her perfectly, albeit a little loose around the bust, but for $100, it was a keeper! The Lord answers prayers, never doubt it!
And finally, in the pictures, note how tall Mason is. Morgan is 5 foot 8. She was wearing 4 inch heels. We had her measure, so that she wouldn't be taller than her date who is 6 foot barefoot. So with his tux heels on, we were planning on everything being okay. Anyway, Mason is taller than Morgan with her 4 inch heels on! CRAZY. Enjoy the pics and we hope you all have a wonderful week!
