| Prom 2012 with my wonderful date, Noah Jewkes. We didn't take many pictures, because we were in a hurry to get to reservations at Teppanyaki. Yep, that's where we ate dinner. It was delicious and the chef was hilarious. We all couldn't stop laughing at all the great jokes he had. Then on to the dance where we danced our hearts out and had one heck of a night. Funny moment... So, I wanted to slide down the cool banisters at the capitol but it was a lot slicker than I had expected. Not only that but my shoes (moccasins) did not have any grip on them. I slid down it and expected to land flat on my feet but instead my I landed flat on my back. My shoes had no grip and thus causing me to slip just as I landed. It was hilarious. Next after the dance we enjoyed some yummy desserts at the Degn's house and watched Psych. Have to say it was one fun night! |

| The wonderful, colorful, dress mom spent so much time on and worked sooooo hard on! What a crafty mom she is! Thanks to her I got the dress I dreamed of. I wanted colors for the dress, and so we took forever trying to figure out a way to put this toole on. Thanks to Cass for some good ideas we were able to find this one. Along with my crazy colorful dress we tie dyed headbands and put on war paint. It was a fun night, even though people still thought we were the craziest people there. We aren't wearing them in this picture, but we are in the real ones... |

| 4 girls were nominated and only 2 won something. I was one of those girls! How lucky am I?! I was stunned! Mattie Watts won first place and I got second. Insane I actually won, and very fun. |
Do you like her crown? We planned it that way in case you thought it was an accident. The only problem with the dress is that she couldn't move her arms too high because I was redoing a dress to make it more modest and for lack of material... that's what happens. Luckily she'd rather be modest then comfortable.
ReplyDeleteWhoot congrats Lex! How exciting for you! And what a beautiful dress. That wasn't what I expected it to look like but I love it. You look gorgeous. And yes mom I do love the crown that's really funny.
ReplyDeleteI love the dress, all the colors turned out to be really pretty... Glad you got your dream dress! I always had a passion for wearing that dress as well and mom you did a fabulous job of making it look stunning. Congrats on getting second even though you should have gotten first (surprised you didn't) haha I didn't even realize that was the light fixture until I took a second look at it, so funny. THe story about you falling down is funny wish someone was getting it on camera, I did that too on prom except I didn't fall on my back.
ReplyDeleteLooking good girl.. your date's tux is pretty cool too, that's awesome you guys are so crazy with the war paint and such, I bet it was a lot of fun. Congrats on getting second place, that's exciting!
ReplyDeleteLove everything here... you, the dress, the fact that you won! Way to go my sister! Great sewing job too mom.
ReplyDeleteSo Mom hasn't been emailing me when you guys blog so I am just barely checking it. That's awesome that you were able to do your own thing and not take yourselves so seriously. It's always a lot more fun like that. So what was it that you won?
