Prommed again
L. found her dream dress in SLC over spring break + loved that it had little cap sleeves
So sweet {^ note adoring younger sister looking on in the background...}
Prom group {we were rushed and it was hard to get a shot where everyone looked good. Sorry, T (in pink)}
D & L. They've known each other since 3rd grade + have been close friends ever since.
On the red carpet walk
. . .
What a difference a week makes! When we scheduled L's procedure, the doctor reassured us she would be up and at 'em and at prom the next weekend. I had my doubts but, sure enough, she was back at school on Tuesday, in her flute recital on Thursday, and at junior prom on Friday. Amazing what the body can do and heal from.
Our high school has a nice tradition of all the families gathering at the school for a red carpet procession/photo op of all of the junior prom couples, then the kids all board busses and head to the hotel for the dance. They all return for pick-up at 11:30, safe and (most of them) sound. Lauren had a wonderful evening. Now her group of friends has a whole progressive activity evening planned tonight: fun, a dinner, an outdoor movie in our yard. The girls have taken over all the planning. Is that a thing now?

She looks amazing and that dress is stunning. I never understood strapless dresses for a dance-HELLO, bouncing=bad news.
um yeah, that would be the dream dress of lots of girls I know too. The discussion in YW has been nonstop prom dresses (ours is today)
But Lauren wears it like no one else could. She is GROGEOUS.
I love the photo-op bus tradition. I don't think that would ever fly in Utah-- is MA more conservative than us?
Thanks for the peek-- we'll see if I get permission to post photos tonight.

p.s. I'm glad she's healing so well!
She is darling and that dress is awesome! I'm so glad she is doing well.
That dress is phenomenal and she looks absolutely beautiful. What an awesome tradition - what parental piece of mind! How much trouble could anyone get into on a school bus?
Nevermind. Don't answer that.
Love your gorgeous girl. Can't wait to see you all live and in-person in just a month or so!!!
That dress is STUNNING. And the girl ain't half bad, either!
that is one of the most beautiful dresses i have ever seen. i would wear that. she has impeccable taste. wow.
That is a dream dress. She is such a beauty.
Oh, such a wonderful group of friends that is. I enjoyed them at Lauren and Lucy's double birthday bash last summer. Such cute and creative, lively and loving friends. This is the kind of group we mother's all pray for, for our children. Lauren looks stunning. What a gorgeous girl in a gorgeous frock. Thanks for sharing these wonderful pictures. I love that the planning and all is done by the girls. What a fun event for those stellar young people.
Gorgeous.
What a fun night. I love the "red carpet" tradition.
Glad to hear the healing has gone well. :)
