The issue we had was that the dance and the theme was announced a week ago and Ally didn’t have a dress. She’s grown since Italy and none of her dresses fit. We had absolutely zero time together over the weekend since I was working at a gymnastics meet all weekend. So Sunday morning I went online at Amazon. I ordered 7 dresses. They arrived Tuesday afternoon when Ally was home with her friend Willow. Ally tried on all of the dresses. Picked one and Willow helped her style it. She wore the dress with shoes and jewelry she already had. Later that evening Becky and I sent back the 6 rejected dresses back to Amazon. Gotta love free shipping and free returns.
Getting ready to go.
Posing, I made her show all sides of the dress for Great Aunt Martha.
She was so happy with how she looked.
Some fun phot editing.
Downstairs ready to finally leave. We had friends over after the dance but all of her close friends had made plans before the dance. So she went by herself.
She is loving natural light for pictures so she agreed to some shots posed in front of the fence.
Two and a half hours later she was back home with this group of girls:
Maya, Colette, Lizzie, Juli, Catalina, Willow and Ally.
Lizzie has gone home to change before coming to our house.
They chatted and ate pasta and carrots and ice cream.
And by the time they all left at 10:10 Ally was so tired she could hardly walk. And she has practice tomorrow at 7:00am.
We do feel so grateful that she has so many nice friends.
