drum roll please...homecoming dress revealed

and the winner is...

 

madison 

chose

the plum dress

from express

as the winning prized homecoming attire

2011.

(see this post for the dress candidates )

what do you think of the final product?

i don't suppose you get melancholy

like me when you see this image?

no, 

that would just be me.

don't suppose you are misty eyed either?

verklempt maybe?

ya.  

didn't think so.

just me.

she did look beautiful

(i know i'm biased)

don't like watching my baby grow up on me,

even if she is the most beautiful girl in my eyes,

inside 

and 

out.

more pics...

momma and her girlies

three sisters

thanks for stopping by.

would love your thoughts on 

your babies growing up,

going to big dances, 

getting all dolled up?

3 sisters sitting service...
round two.

see round one here

having already done this once,
we knew what we were doing.

only this time,
we jazzed it up a bit
with hand made pom poms.

here is the CEO of the company
herself
fast at work

thanks, aunt heathie,
for the pom pom maker.
madison is loving its quick results

we also
streamlined our
wording a bit.

straight to the point,
baby.

we made 50 of these badboys.

currently passing them out

beware if you are a

dog walker,
pool mom,
the least bit friendly with children in your vicinity...
pretty much anyone in the hood.

the girls already have high hopes on what
to do with their profits.
they have decided that their
current mode of transportation

(yes, the bikes they've had since
they were in 4th grade)


these are the ones

aren't cutting the
teenage vibe...

they've got their sights set on
the new and improved two wheeled version

hello beach cruiser.

perfect pick for
our relatively flat neighborhood.

i like their thinking
and i'm all about independent women.

would love to hear you ideas on putting
kids to work
come too much down time
