8th grade dance

Shannon, Hannah, Julia and Gabby
 It's the winding up time of the school year, although we still have three weeks to go.  Tonight was the 8th grade dance.  Hannah was super excited.  We haven't let her go to any evening dances yet.  She's only 13 but she is super close and in 6th grade I made a deal with her that if she didn't bug me about dances then I would let her go to this last one of her middle school years.

When I got home I found the girls getting ready.  They had been at it for hours and seemed to be enjoying themselves if not making a lot of progress when I got here.  The last 5 minutes of getting ready though were a blur of activity!
 The first thing we did was go to dinner.  We went to Cafe de Artist which was yummy.  There were 4 moms and 6 girls and I enjoyed getting to know the other moms better.

 Then we went down to the wharf to take some pictures.  This was not an original idea and the girls saw lots of friends there.
 They posed, and practiced their moves, then we went over to the school.
 The moms went in to check things out and see the beautiful decorations and the beautiful young people.  They didn't need any help chaperoning so I ran home to "do the dishes" read: blog.  But I will go back soon and see the end of the dance and then deliver the girls safely to their homes.
