Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. -- Brad Henry

High School Spring Formal








Our oldest had her first high school semi-formal dance. Since the new high school only has grades 9-10, they steered clear of calling it a "prom".  So instead, it was a spring formal.














She went to the dance with the captain of their cross country team.  They both share a love for running and seemed to get along well.

They first had dinner at a friend's house, which was a beautiful plan.  Most of the other students that wanted to go out somewhere faced a 1 hr wait.


After the dance, several of her closest friends stopped by our neighborhood clubhouse for an after-party.  We had about 12 kids, so a nice group.  The most difficult part as a parent was having to stay up that late to chaperone.  The party finally closed around 12:30am.













We forgot to get a group picture while everyone was there, but here's the last 9 to leave....
