Prom Dress Shopping








A few weeks ago, I took Sofie and her friends to Grand Rapids to try on Prom dresses. In TC, there are few places that have prom dresses and with two very large high schools in town, it is likely that another girl will have your dress, and that would be bad. Of course Paul had duty, so we all (yes, Kailey and Owen included) loaded up in the mini-van...have I mentioned that? We're mini-van owners...that's another entry! ...and headed two hours down South.

I was skeptical that we would leave GR with three happy teenagers with lovely dresses, but we did it! In just one hour and one stop each girl found a beautiful dress. And can you imagine Kailey's pure joy to watch not only Sofie, Brianna and Ally try on dresses, but other ladies trying on wedding gowns too? One bride tried on a dress, walked out of the room and Kailey gasped, "Wow, she's beautiful, mommy!" The bride heard and couldn't contain her smile. Note to all: bring a princess obsessed 4 year old dress shopping, she will make you feel awesome!

Here are the dresses, I won't reveal the winning ones until after Prom this Saturday, but they will all be stunning, I am certain!

My picks....short blue, short green, long blue. Sofie looks fabulous in the blue one.
