Seth-8th Grade Dance

Wow...did I learn a lot in the past 3 or 4 days!  #1--do NOT depend upon your MALE child to have his act together as far as coordinated clothing, corsages, etc...  #2--be prepared for a few TEARS for this first event... and be PROUD of how nice your son & his date looks!  Seth finally got to be the first to do something...  Evan didn't want to do the dance/prom thing in middle school.  Seth told me at first that he just needed "a pair of khakis, a button down shirt and some boat shoes/dockers".  He needed nothing for his date.  Then at 8:30 on the evening before his date, he says he needs to borrow one of his Dad's white shirts & a tie that matches the aqua color on the dress that his date has texted him...  So...  RED LIGHTS...SIRENS... OFF WE GO !!  and we get him a beautiful tie, shirt, etc to match her dress and jewelry.  By the way, her aqua eyes match her aqua sequins on her dress.

Also, about 1PM on the day of... he and his BFF  Austin Bryant decide that they DO need wrist corsages for their dates...  SO what do I do!  I get them at the last second from Kroger and love how sweet they all look!!!



Seth's date Abby Faulk and her BFF Lauren Bolin.  I told ya Abby's eyes are beautiful!

Austin Bryant and his date Katie Wilson--the other girl who got the last minute wrist corsage thanks to me!!!
 

Seth Black (the one in black, coincidentally) got this hummer as a gift for his good grades and shared it with the rest of the crowd!
