High School Dinner and Dance

J+M+J

As a freshman, I went to the annual homeschool high school dinner and dance for the first time. Brand new shoes (Mom and I had gone shopping for them that very day), dress, and hair that mom had spent a half hour with the curling iron on (I still haven’t figured out how to not put kinks in my hair) all added to the excitement and special feeling of the dinner.

I really like this dress, which was a surprise find at Kohls!™

Dinner was very interesting, as we ordered off a menu where everything was called by a code name. The theme of the code names were the last names of people attending the party, and each name had a connection to something associated with it. For example, Frederes was an egg, due to the parrot eggs I’m raising. There was no telling what you were going to get, and this was my first of the four courses:

After we finished eating, there was ballroom dancing. This picture is so grainy because I had to mess with it on the computer because the camera flash can’t reach very far across the room.

    Our little miss growing up. We are so proud of you. These are just the beginning of more adult milestones in your life. Driving & dancing in the same week? Wow. Stay in prayer, so God can help you with all decisions.

    That was a unique dinner. It must have taken a lot of work to figure out the menu code.

    Love, Grandma Kathy
