Just wanted to say hello.It's a sunny day today.
Finally.
And another busy one.
I take Lara tonight to get her prom dress altered.
Who knew getting ready for prom was such a huge process?
I went to a Christian school.
We didn't have prom.
We had banquets.
We got dressed up.
Jessica McClintock dresses were my favorite.
Lots of florals.
Lots and lots of florals.
But I never got my hair done.
Or my nails.
(I've never had a manicure.
I may have mentioned that before.)
I did usually get new shoes and jewelry.
One year we sprayed painted some shoes I already had.
Pale pink.
To go with my dress.
Hmmm.
Have to look for all those pictures.
A couple weeks ago we went to shop for Lara's dress.
My mom, my sis-in-law, my niece and Brookie went too.
We were in a bridal shop.
Lots of high school girls and ladies.
Trying on prom dresses, bridesmaids dresses, wedding dresses.
My niece and Brookie were traumatized.
They saw parts of ladies they never wanted to see.
It was comical.
Well, this turned out to be a little more than a peek.
I often ramble.
You may have noticed that.
Does anyone wear Jessica McClintock anymore?
I think my mom might still have my dresses.
Anyone want to borrow one?

Just so you know---you make me laugh, giggle out loud when I read your blog!
I still have my prom dresses! They were pink. I know that surprises you. I didn't even get Jessica McClintock. Mine were both homemade. and I went to public school.
Hahaha!! You had spray painted shoes!! That is so amazingly awesome.
I rocked some Jessica McClintock Gunne Sack dresses..
My wedding dress was a McClintock. Loved her style.
I don't want to borrow one, but I want to see your's! Can't say I know Jessica McClintock- but I might have worn her dresses? I wasn't into brand names back then. HA! Stil aren't.
