Before the Dance

Picture time . . .

Of course before the dance, I wanted to get pictures.  The girls were all for pictures . . .

Cynthia's dress was gorgeous on her.  It looked like something you'd buy in the store, but she made it!!  What a beautiful dress.  She did such an amazing job making it.  That is really cool that she can say she wore a dress she made to her senior dance.

Zack wanted nothing to do with taking pictures . . .

Kind of reminded me of his first formal . . .

He didn't want his sister touching him two years ago and neither did he the other night.

The kids met up with some friends before the dance and had dinner.  They were all dressed up, and their server asked what school they were from having prom.  The kids responded that it is the best school around. Of course, she inquired more and they said they were homeschoolers.  She seemed shocked when she told them, "I didn't know homeschoolers did prom, too."  Duh! Homeschoolers can do the same things public schoolers do and sometimes even BETTER!!  :)

So glad, we can give the kids the same opportunities as other kids.  No missing out on fancy formal dances.  No missing out on science labs and classroom style classes.  No missing out on graduation.  No missing out on socialization.
