First semi-formal...

Saturday, Alex went to her first semi-formal dance at the middle school gym.  Last week, I took her to Kohl's to get her dress & jewelry.  She borrowed some of my dress shoes.  All of the girls looked so pretty as they arrived with glowing smiles on their faces.  Alex had to rush into the school (we were running late), since she is on student council (who sponsored the dance) to collect the money from the students. She was so excited, and has been anxiously awaiting this night for quite a while now. After the dance, Alex was invited to a slumber party, with about 9 of her closest friends.  She is growing up way to fast for me!
