Prom & Yard Sailing

As mentioned yesterday, TJ & I were chaperone's at Prom last night.  It's quite a different experience being the "adult" there.  The kids had a blast dancing all night, it was a beautiful location, and yummy fruit and dips for eats.  The girls looked beautiful in their dresses and the guys looked very cool in their getup. I did not take part in dancing accept for the last slow dance TJ and I got up for.  It's just different being the chaperone dancing on the dance floor with teenagers....I can't really explain it.  All in all it was a great evening for the teens, which, was the goal.  Below are some photos during the night and a couple videos I took while I was sitting down and getting SOOO tired.

Excuse the mess around me. :-)

Low lighting = REALLY fuzzy photos on the iphone.

So, this morning, after sleeping in from our late night at Prom, I had the urge to go find some yard sales.  I should have planned it better as I did not know where we should go.  So, we just drove around and found a few here and there.  No JACKPOT garage sales with everything we have in mind to find.  However, we did come across one with some decent books & one house that was selling a BIC 5'10 Surf Board.  We got the board for a good deal and will use it at the Myrtle Beach House.  I do not surf, but maybe this will spur me on to learn.  :-)

What to wear to Prom tonight

As some of you know, TJ and I have been involved with the senior class at CSCL.  In May we will be going to Ireland with them on their class trip.  Well, a few weeks ago we got asked by the 11th grade class to be chaperone's for Prom.  It will be at a vineyard about 30 minutes from here.  It should be fun.  I never went Prom my Sr. year, so this will be my first.  Maybe I will get the hubby to dance a couple dances with me. :-)

So, tonight is the night.  I have not completely decided what I will wear, but I am not stressing either as it is not my Sr. Prom and the kids won't be paying much attention to the chaperone's. haha!  Luckily I have a couple really pretty bridesmaid dresses from both of my brothers weddings or an above the knee black lace dress.  Depending on what my mood is in a few hours, it will either be: a) Black lace dress w/ red heels OR b) Teal strapless dress (past the knee and flowy) with silver heels.  After typing that out, I am thinking black dress with red heels.  But, I shall see once I try them on.  As for my hair, oh my....i have no idea.  Anyway, I will definitely take some photos tonight and post about it. :-)
