I can't believe my DD is old enough for the prom. It was a junior/senior prom so we will have to do it again next year with these 2. I better start saving my money because I told her we would go all out for the senior prom next year as if this one didn't cost me an arm and a leg already. I look at that dress and shoes and think to myself, look at all the fabric I could have bought. LOL!!!!! I am bad mommy!!!!

They really do make a wonderful couple.

Thank you for looking.

Lovely! I'll have to show my granddaughter, who is 15. She has black hair, with streaks of red, purple, blue...it is all the rage here in New England. These kids look so happy!

Beautiful pictures! They make a sweet couple. It is hard when they grow up..my (only) son turned 16 a few weeks ago...
I know what you mean about fabric..I value everything in terms of how much fabric I could have bought instead...oh the evils of quilting!

I would be thinking after the prom that there had to be something in the dress that could be used to make a quilt.

Wait til school gets out, she will have muti-colored hair. They can't have anything but natural colored hair in school here. She barely gets away with it this way.

My daughter's senior prom was last night, too. No more girl proms in this house. I really shouldn't complain. We have never spent over $100 for a prom. The girl was born cheap.

It is all satin fabric so I won't be using it for anything.

Before buying this dress we hit every thrift shop trying to find something that would fit her. If she had been a bean pole then we would have many choices. Any dress' we found for a girl of her size was down right ugly and frumpy.

Your daughter is beautiful! They make a lovely couple!

I'm a scrapbooker, so I take LOTS of pictures... the last picture of your daughter giving you "the look"... yeah, I have tons of those with my kids giving me "the look"... tired of the paparazzi.. thats what they call me. =)
