1 of 3....

Father/Daughter dances that is! Keven took Marlie to her very first Father/Daughter dance Friday. She was so excited! And, being a dance, we had to get her all gussied up of course. First we started by putting her hair in those little foam curlers while her hair was wet in the morning. Remember those? tee hee! I have never curled her hair this way before so it was quite the experiment. Well, let's just say that I need much more practice and many more curlers. The girl has got TONS of hair... and I do mean tons! So, we took the curlers out and there were some tight curls, some barely curled and some not curled at all! But, we stuck it up in a pretty barrette (which was the plan anyway) and took an OLD spiral curling iron to it! Turned out really cute. She even had the treat of some blush (rouge as her daddy so LOVES to tease) and mascara! She looked gorgeous!

Marlie LOVES, LOVES, LOVES flowers! Fresh flowers, silk flowers... you name it! So, Keven and I thought it would be a great surprise to have a little corsage made for her. Well, as you can see by her face when Daddy presented it to her, she did not know what to think of the whole thing. She tried it on but said it was uncomfortable. She never did wear it but I think she just didn't quite know what it was all about. I wonder if maybe she thought she would be the only one wearing flowers on her wrist. Too funny!

Being silly in her curlers

What is this?


Next is Hannah's turn for a dance with Daddy on the 13th. Can't wait to get her all doodied up next! She is such a little tomboy that it's even more fun! Then there are no more "formal" dances but Daddy has promised a Father/Daughter time of some sort with Dani too... any ideas to shoot my way?
