In case you don't recall, Thing 3 is athletic & a bit of a tomboy.
Thing 3 in her natural environs. She's #2~* |
She's not much in to dressing up...ever. She is very low maintenance, particularly if one considers the usual teenage girl stereotype.
After 4 wheeling with Stretch. Note the grin. Sigh. |
Thing 1 came over to do hair & make up about an hour before Stretch was due to take her to dinner. They had gone out bowling earlier in the afternoon. They had originally thought they'd go bowling, then to dinner, then to the dance, but I was able to convince her that, fun as it sounded, it wouldn't be such a hot idea in her dress lol.
Within 45 minutes she went from sweat pants & blogger bun to ready for a formal dance. It would have taken less time but Thing 1 is a perfectionist~*
Outside for a few goof-around pick with Thing 2...
Then the real deal with Stretch {whose tie matched perfectly~*}
Then they piled into Stretch's pickup & were off for dinner with friends & dancing the evening away.
They had a great time & were home by 11. Thing 3's summation? "Not nearly as lame as I thought it was going to be." Lol~*
So to honor Thing 3's first formal, I give you this Monday's motivationals, dance style~*
Go out & boogie through your Monday!
cool girl! and i love how her hair was styled. :)
ReplyDeleteShe's gorgeous! I'm glad they had a good time. That's a good looking group of kiddos you have there, and I love the Dr. Suess reference, lol
ReplyDeleteI'm glad it wasn't lame. LOL She looks fantastic! (:
ReplyDeleteShe looks fantastic, love the dress color!
ReplyDeleteShe sure cleans up nice! What a sweet, pretty girl! Love the mud-covered shot too. :)
ReplyDeleteShe looks beautiful! Sometimes getting dressed up can feel so awkward but it's always fun to try it out. Maybe she'll give it another shot- since this time wasn't lame :)
