| Braedon & Kara |
Hi!I was just going through pictures, and I realized that I hadn't posted any of the pictures of Kara from Prom 10 days ago!
**ALSO: if you click on the photos, you can see them bigger.**
Kara got to go to Prom 2 weekends ago, as a sophomore--that was a pretty big deal :)
In Wayland, we have a "Junior Prom." That means everyone has to go to prom with a Junior...so Kara got asked by her friend Braedon. She knew him from reffing soccer games, and also they have a "free" period at the same time so they hang out in the library occasionally.
Anyway, there were a series of family events that caused Braedon to NOT be at school for the couple of weeks before prom. He had the tickets. But he had not asked anyone yet.
He ended up decorating his car, writing all over it "P-R-O-M-?" and driving it into the field by the tennis courts, while Kara was at tennis practice. It was cute! |

The not-so-cute part was that he asked her THREE DAYS BEFORE THE DANCE. So we looked for a dress, Online and at the mall, but really even if you order the "overnight" shipping, they still have to receive the order, go find it, package it and send it. Sure, it's "overnight" once it's SHIPPED. But they may not SHIP it for a couple of days. Ugh. And we looked for shoes. And made hair and nails appointments, but not CLOSE, because all the close ones to our house were booked up. We had 72 hours. |

But we got lucky in a couple of things! Amazingly, it worked. (Yes...I think I lost a whole decade off my life in those 3 days.)

| Prom Trolley! |
The trolley took them to dinner and the Prom dance in Boston. I think it was at the Hyatt this year.
So there you have it! I'm including pics of Kara and some of her friends.
Happy week!
