Headed to Las Vegas on Monday. Been on the road for 4 hours and I get a phone call.
In the middle of Nevada, it's hard to have consistent cell coverage.
Bella was asked to the homecoming dance.
It's on Saturday....this Saturday.
I'm gone til Thursday night & she's gone Wednesday through Friday afternoon.
And of course, she can't just call him and say, "Yes." He asked by doing something with chocolate kisses. So she made him a giant Rice Crispy Kiss and put her answer in the middle.
I guess at school, kids were walking around with pieces of it & he finally had to get the kitchen lady to saw it open.
My poor husband had to go dress shopping, Rice Crispy shopping and handle everything else before she left on Wednesday. He did a great job. Sitting at the mall for an entire evening was not in his plans.
I think I spent the whole week on the phone with them. It was fun. Wish I would have been home.
Friday night, we got the dress hemmed. May I just say, I learned to do a rolled hem on my serger and change the thread color. I'm quite proud. Do you need any purple thread?
Well, they left tonight. What do we do now? Lizzie & I are just hanging out, not sure what to do.
Hope they have fun!
Aaahhh, my little Bella is growing up. So, so beautiful. Glad the kisses were in chocolate ONLY!!! Or at least they better BE!!!

She'd BETTER have fun, I had to go babysit for one of her "families" for five hours and I missed her leaving. :o( Shadowman and I are going to go hide in the bushes with the video camera for when they come home.

I love the giant kiss! What a fun idea. In my day boys just stumbled up, asked you to the dance really fast and walked away really fast, usually blushing.

ReplyDeleteSo sweet! I love the asking and answering process...how cute is that? Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteSweet couple. Hope they have a great time.
ReplyDeleteThat must have been kind of frustrating for you, to not be home. This whole new way of asking and accepting a date for dance is quite the thing. Too funny. They were both creative and looks like dad did a great job helping out. CUTE couple, cute dress.
ReplyDeleteThat is so sweet! How cool to get an answer like that. She looks so pretty in her dress too!
