OK, you twisted my arm

Kim asked to see pictures from the dance.  My poor arm couldn't take the beating, so ok.....you get a pic.


The dance was "Winter Wonderland" so white lights and snowflakes were abundant.  I worked the photo table (they had a professional photographer who is a parent at the school we partnered with; she volunteered her time, and sold really inexpensive packages that we will split the profit 50/50).  So I got to see all the girls!!

The dads (or granddad, or uncle....it was "significant male" so girls who may not have a Dad who is active in their life could still feel like they could attend) were all dressed up too.  It was wonderful to see them get into the spirit of it.  Matching ties or shirts.  Very cool.

Daddy and Sassy went to dinner before the dance, and all sorts of people came up to her and told her how beautiful she looked and to have a nice time.  That made her smile.  They had a great time at the dance, and I got a picture of the two of them dancing to "My Girl," which made my heart melt.  Sassy said her feet hurt from the "high heels."  ( click here to see her "high heels" )  I told her to get used to it....all women go through it!  After dancing the night away, they went out for dessert.  Sassy came home, floating on a cloud.  And Daddy was pretty happy too.  Here ya go...my NINE year old debutante!
