Take, for example, 1 of 8 going to prom this year.
She headed to California.
The Amazing Nick extended the prom invitation and we responded by sticking 1 of 8 on a plane and letting her jet over to the West Coast.
(The Amazing Nick is 6'7"...and 1 of 8 is.not. So I'm thinking The Amazing Nick is crouching substantially in this photo...)
We are so cosmopolitan.
A great time was had by all, except for the part where 1 of 8 came down with the stomach flu and we had to change all of her flight reservations and wring our hands while Nick's mom took care of her.
She arrived home last night, a little thinner, very tired and with her mental pockets full of great memories.
I wonder where we'll have to send 2 of 8 to prom...Boston? Jacksonville? Seattle?
So cute!
ReplyDeleteI hope she is feeling better. Getting sick when you are away from home is awful!
I am glad she had fun overall!
What a wonderful experience.
ReplyDeleteI went to a very small Christian school, and we didn't have a prom. So, I went to the prom with a friend that went to public school. I was so much fun and I will remember it always.
She's beautiful and looked like she had a wonderful time! What fun going to California for prom!
