Homecoming Dance

Here are some pictures of Brendan and Caitlin going to Homecoming Dance. It was actually held at the school for the first time and they brought in all these giant video screens, a DJ and couches outside with a red carpet. Brendan said it turned out to be really fun. Only two more dances before he graduates..Sadie Hawkins and Prom..

I was thinking about it... both Emily and Brendan have not missed one single dance with their school ...and have gone to many dances with someone at other schools as well. Can you add up the money I've spent? LOL. It's funny because there is such a difference in boys and girls...Emily had to shop and shop to find that perfect dress, make an appt. at MAC for make-up, also have her toes and nails done, hair appt. for the day of the dance..get together early in the day and spend all day with all her friends so they could get ready together...
For Brendan... we went to Macy's (it only took one store)shopping for his shirt and tie to match Caitlin's dress on the Thursday before the dance and he already had black pants that he wore only once before so he wore those... He didn't even want to try it on and was annoyed that I had the lady measure him to make sure we had the right neck size at least..Funny! It was the first dance that he didn't need me to drive him or pick him up...it made me sad. :( They looked so cute though.






We all met at one of Brendan's friends house to take pictures of them and all their friends and the parents had a professional photographer set up in the backyard to take pictures and they are going to E-mail it to us. I also took this one there. Nice idea!







Doesn't he look thrilled? Apparently I was taking too many and he couldn't stand up straight anymore.. :)








Gary let Brendan take his car..how cute is he opening up the door for her? Awwwww....
