Prom preparations......

This Friday is the Prom !! A few days ago Kitty (who conveniently got over her huff and snit) came over so we could decide on fabric and the style of her prom gown.....


......she decided she wants something frothy and pink....





......and today she came over for her final fitting ....


....no peeking !!! Kitty doesn't want anybody to see her dress until Prom night!



Matt, Kid #1, will also be going to the Prom on Friday. Matt is not real big on dances so I've been trying to convince him for weeks now that he should go to his Senior Prom with his friends .... and believe me , this took alot of convincing!! He's changed his mind about going at least 5 times .... but his friends finally convinced him to go ... and he said he'd go ONLY if he could wear this ....

.....that's all you get to see until the big night .... yep it's ORANGE .... Matt is not one to take a formal affair too seriously ..... YIKES !!!

Anyhow, Kitty is still being mysterious about her Prom date .....let's see..... it could be this guy .....


.....he's been taking dancing lessons for the past month from Lucy ... seems like he's getting in practice to take somebody to the Prom.....

...or, it could be this dreamboat ....


.....Kitty just LOVES a man in uniform.....








...or, maybe this slightly older, sophisticated man of the world ....


....uh oh..... wait, I don't think he'll be allowed to smoke at the Prom ... and besides, I think this guy is married ..... I hope Kitty doesn't plan to go with him .... he might end up getting arrested .....

.....oh! maybe she's going with one of these guys ....


...I always thought the older one was cute .... and he's about the right age too...



.....hmmmm, maybe she's just going to take her chances with this guy.....















.... I guess we'll just have to wait and see ! Well, I'd better get back to the last minute alterations on Kitty's gown and Matt's tux.....

Toodles,
Mary Anne (aka Mare)

I always like Tim Considine (Frank Hardy from the Hardy Boys) or Kurt Russell. I just hope it isn't Bob the Builder or Sponge Bob. I am afraid Kitty would end up disappointed. I can't wait to see her new dress and tell her to have fun!

Kitty is going to have a wonderful time no matter what, I mean she is going to have the best dress there. The orange tux is perfect in my opinion. Hope they both have lots of fun!

Ah, the photos make me feel nostalgic. My last (& only) prom was back in '64.........oh my. I wore blue then but if it were now I would definitely choose pink too. Best of luck to the kids and the parents too on this milestone!
