Prom Time!!!

After a month of seeing friends post prom pictures of their sons and daughters on facebook, it is finally my turn to show off my princess!! Aubree went to her prom last night with Ben Cookson, and had a great time. Although her beauty is all her own, getting her ready for the evening was a "village" effort--dress from her Aunt JoLynne (thank you for letting us borrow it!), hair by our hair stylist, Rachel Hone, and makeup by me!!! Being too much the same personality, Aubree and I both forgot we needed a boutonniere until the last minute, right about the time every florist in the county had run out of flowers and was closing shop. Harmon's grocery store had one rose left in their flower department, and it was the wrong color! Never fear! We just bought a bouquet of small flowers that matched, and had the florist add them to the yellow rose, and Voila! We all thought it turned out better than if we had bought a standard one! Aubree had a wonderful night, complete with roses, a Murder Mystery Dinner, dance at the Riverwoods reception area, and goodnight kisses! (Well, a bag of the Hershey's variety.) It was so fun to see her all dressed up and beautiful!
