Every spring the church has a Spring Formal for the kids 16 and older. Everyone calls it the Mormon Prom, or Mo Po. It's a lot like the school prom, but with church standards. Britta is going with James Etchells. Kimberlea helped Britta make a corsage and boutonniere. They turned out so nice and looked so cute since they had the same flowers and matched. James thought Britta was going to stick him with the pin and he kept flinching. Britta thought it was quite funny!
She finally got it pinned on.
Her corsage was on a beaded pearl bracelet. It was really pretty and it was nice there were no ribbons to have to tie.
Kim and Doug Perry have a beautiful yard and that's where we went for pictures. James is quite funny and a joker and I have a lot of pictures that are goofy. This is one of the nicer ones.
They are going with a large group. There are two high schools in Castle Rock, and this is a mix of kids from both schools.
Two of the moms (Stacy Houser and Sarah Houghes) were posing the kids for pictures and one of them got the idea that the girls should give the boys a quick peck on the cheek. Britta cooperated, but James wasn't quite sure what to think.
Britta and Chloe have been good friends for two or three years. Britta went to her house and they got ready together.
James and Britta, Chloe and Bryant.
Britta's dress had a cut out section in the low back, so I made this bow and used velcro to stick it on the dress. I was so lucky to find the perfect shade of blue in a similar fabric. It turned out quite nice. Many of the mom's who were taking pictures commented on how cute the back of her dress was and they were quite amazed when we told them we added the bow.
My sweet girl has grown up!
Beautiful Britta!
The Hughes' ordered food from Maggiano's and the kids ate at their house. They had apple pie and ice cream for dessert, then they were off to dance the night away!
