So Many Changes In A Year
Prom 2006. This is baby girl and the new 'love of her life'. He is a very sweet kid and we all like him very much. She has fallen very quickly and very hard this time around....I just keep my fingers crossed that the smile on her face (which has been there since they met) stays for a while.
Here they are again with the newest addition to our family...that's Ozzie. Any of you who know me at all know that I am NOT a dog person....in fact I'm not much or an animal person in general. The rest of my family has wanted a dog for years....they finally wore me down...I still can't believe that I caved!
This is the crew that baby girl and Mr. Wonderful went with. Baby girl only knew a few of them and those she didn't know very well. Very different from last year. She was queen bee...called all the shots...did everyone's hair and make-up...everything was at MY house. I was a bit concerned about her because she seemed very 'disconnected' for most of the day but I worried for nothing, she had the time of her life and made some good friends.
Here they are with my niece, the one that baby girl now lives with. They are all growing up so very fast. This was taking in front of 'Savannah's Garden' at my sister's house. I was concerned that the whole "PROM" thing would be too much for her (the last time we were all together with Vannah was her senior prom day), but she was gracious enough to let us use her house as a 'base' for the day. She did very well....until we left....then she had a little melt down. She said that it was worth it she wouldn't have wanted to miss seeing baby girl so happy.
All in all, even with all the change (I HATE CHANGE), eveything went well and the smiles on the kids faces is certainly proof of that.
