I know I said yesterday that Shilo and Cheyenne were not planning to attend the Homecoming Dance even after they had spent the day decorating for it. After some good-natured coercion from their Student Gov Advisor (and a promise they wouldn't have to purchase the $20 ticket - but don't tell anybody), and room in a group of their friends for a couple of additions, they decided last minute to go.
Shilo called me from Kohls to let me know. She had found a dress for $12, and a belt for $2.
Awesome.
Ya gotta love a $14 outfit.
We happened to have an umbrella that went with her dress. Perfect for a rainy evening.
I didn't get any pictures that had all the girls looking at me at the same time. Oh well.
Girls without dates.
Girls with dates.
They all headed off to dinner at PF Changs, then on to the dance.
Shi's oh-so-brief comments afterwards:
It was fun.
I'm glad I went.
Yes, I danced.
She had to be up bright and early for work today.
I've decided that I prefer the two-hour advance notice of attending the dance. It alleviated the typical stress and issues that I've experienced in the past from my girls having (1) the "wrong" guy ask, to (2) endlessly searching for a semi-modest-usually-requires-some-alterations dress + shoes + accessories.
That's awesome, so glad she went! She looks darling in her $14.00 outfit, you can never go wrong with finding such a bargain.
