Homecoming SHS 2011

 Lauren got asked to her first "date dance"--Homecoming!  Jeff and I looked at each other and said, "Weren't we doing this not too long ago?"  Crazy!  Fun!
Once she unscrambled the eggs, she saw that Scott Smith was asking her.  She answered with a McDonalds Breakfast--get it--scrambled eggs?  
Lauren's first idea for a dress was Grandma!   Grandma Barrett had offered her own dance dresses for Lauren to try.  Lauren was really excited to get to wear them--until she tried them on!  Grandma had a 23" waist!  Alli was the only one that could get them zipped up, with the exception of the one above!  Soo cute, though!  Notice Lindsay in her "dance dress"?
Love the gloves!  So Audrey Hepburn.
This was Alli's favorite dress.
A sassy pout!
Very Grace Kelly, don't you think?

Lauren found a gorgeous dress the traditional way--at a store!  Actually, this may be the new traditional, she rented her dress for the weekend!  Nice on the pocket book and closet space!
One of the cutest things Homecoming night for me, was that Alli did Lindsay's hair and made her a wrist corsage and helped her get a fancy dress on, so she could be a part of it all!  So sweet, Alli!
Here's Lauren and her friends ready to be picked up!
Lauren, Emily, and Nikki
A back of the dress shot--sassy, Lauren!

The ever tricky wrist corsage...

Pinning a corsage on a shirt isn't soo easy!
Don't they look nice?  Already for some dancing!  These firsts are soo fun!

Nerd Day?

So Alli comes up from the basement asking me if she can wear my student council sweater for NERD DAY!  Serious?  I must admit, I told her, "No way!  That's not nerdy!"  Then I got over myself and let her wear it but it helped to tell myself that she's going for the cutest nerd ever!
Ready to roll--as nerdy as it gets?  But seriously, kids are wearing those glasses all the time now!
Maybe I'm crazy, I get more of a--------Gooooo Bruins! :)
