Sierra & Homecoming

Sierra was asked to Homecoming.  She came out of school to this lovely situation.

I have to say my favorite part are the stick people. Aren't they just so gorgeous.

In preparation for the big night we had an eyebrow waxing session by our one and only Teesh Lareesh.

We headed off to find the perfect dress for Sierra and had one stop on the way, Scheels. Dirty Dash was the following day so I needed to pick up our registration packets and since Scheels is close to South Towne Mall we combined trips. The girls wanted to ride the carousel and what would you know as Sierra was able to look out over the store she spotted a cute dress she wanted to check out.

Who would have thought that we would fall in love with the first dress we spotted high on the carousel. It was rather funny to think when people asked where did you get your dress from, "oh Scheels the outdoor store". Hey, whatever makes Sierra happy I was happy to buy her. This was her first dance as a 16 year old Junior.

We headed to the mall for the accessories and Ada could not resist trying on shoes of every color and size.

Bria wanted in on the action as well.

The day of the dance has finally arrived and we were lucky enough to have Sierra and four other girls all get ready in our basement bathroom. I provided hors doeuves like the other houses  Sierra has gotten ready at for previous dances. Mine were a little more simple but hey they were a hit.

Sierra was so concerned she would be taller than her date so Dad to the rescue. It was super funny when he appeared from the garage with the saw.

I ironed dresses, grabbed hairspray and other beautifying items and at lass they were all ready. Aren't they all so stunning. Do you love the one guy how he arrived early. Awkward!

Sierra wanted a picture with me. Sierra Jane you are beautiful inside and out.

Proud Parents!

Those boutonnieres are so special to pin on but eventually we figured it out.

Sierra went with Gannon

Do you see his shoes? Really, how can you miss them. All the guys showed up with suspenders. The girls were less than thrilled but it is a fashion statement for sure.

It was fun to have our house be the meeting place. What a fun group of girls and guys. They went to dinner at the Doh Doh Restaurant, Dance and then went to a haunted house, which Sierra loved. She is a thrill seeker. She arrived home after 2:15AM and that was the end of her first dance as a Junior. So fun Sierra I would ask you out Sierra if I was a boy, just sayin!
