So tonight is Amanda's Senior Ball. This is a new custom for our family because when Sarah was a senior, they didn't do this. Well, they had a "Senior Ball" but it was basically Prom. This is a night JUST for Seniors. You don't go with a date, you just go with your friends. You dress up and get all Glam, they have a catered dinner (from Tocano's Brazilian Grill) and then they get to just hang out and mingle/reminisce with friends. It's kind of like a nice farewell dinner for the Seniors.
A couple of days ago Amanda hinted around about me buying her a nice dress for the occasion and I just couldn't fork out any more $$$ so I told her no. This month has been CRAZY expensive. I'll tell you what, getting kids out the door is not for the weak kneed. Every time I turn around I'm handing out money!!
Today she came to me and made this proposal...If she could find a (modest) dress for $20.00 would I buy it? After I quit laughing, I told her to ask her dad, which she did. He agreed to the challenge at which point I couldn't help but go along for the ride, just for pure curiosity sake. I'm a doubter! I admit it!
Well, Sarah came along too and we went to Ross...(dress for less). We walked over to the dress section and Sarah pulled a dress off the rack and then then we spotted some more. Amanda tried on 6 dresses but she ended up with the very first one she tried on. And the price? $26.99!!!! Unbelievable! It is perfect!
