Prom Night

Here's some pictures from Malloye's point of view at Prom...and before....

Arent' they beautiful??! Molly, Hailey, Janae, Amie, Mallorye, & Jonna

Mal is fortunate to have a great bunch of friends, who love to laugh and have fun...this picture is so typical of them...just being crazy! Check out Molly's hot pink Converse...(those would be what Mal wanted to wear)...I'm glad they were able to have a great time together.

I think they were trying to be sassy.....

....and then sweet.....

Jonna & Mallorye...these girls have played ball (softball & volleyball) together most of their lives.

Ashley & Mallorye....think they're getting tired??

Hailey & Mallorye...they've been best friends throughout high school....they've played on the same softball team...the same volleyball team...and both their dads have been to Iraq...two very super sweet girls with a world of potential awaiting them...

Kathryn & Mallorye....these girls have been friends forever too...and also have played volleyball and softball together....Kathryn's dad Ken, and I, coached the girls softball team for many...many years and Kathryn has shared a couple of vacations with us....I can't believe how much they've both grown up...I look at this picture and think..."WOW! Where has time gone?"

Mallorye & Janae.....once again, a volleyball teammate and awesome friend. These girls have pulled off some pretty cool pranks at WalMart...all in good fun of course....

Mallorye & Maggie...yes, she plays volleyball with Mal too! I'm tellin' ya...the girl is blessed with some friends!! Which is a great thing...for where there are friends..there are memories!

We gave her a 3am curfew, but she came home at 1am...I'm pretty proud of her and the fact that I can trust her to do what she says. I know she was tired...as part of the Prom Committee, she had spent many hours this past week getting decorations ready and then tearing it all down on Friday night after the last song had played. In the words of Mal..."it took 18 hours to put the decorations up..and 1 hour to tear it all down."

Jonna, Ashley, Savannah, Amie, & Mallorye...waiting for the official Prom pictures...

Just A Glimpse...

Just thought I'd share a few quick pix of Mallorye...tonight is PHS Prom...her first time to go...I think she was a little nervous, but she looks gorgeous.

During hair (courtesy of Elisha) and before make up....

gorgeous....I love the touch of pink in her hair....
isn't she stunning?? She wasn't too happy about her shoes...she really wanted to get Black Converse sneakers...but didn't get them for her...honestly...I didn't realize it was a big deal until today...and I could tell that she really wanted them...Next year, if she wants Converse, she'll get Converse....lesson learned.

I love this photo! The hot pink Gerber Daisy was an afterthought of sorts, but I'm so glad we did it...it is so...Mallorye!

I'm tellin' ya....I can't say enough how beautiful she is tonight!!

Now the prayers start...prayers for her safety and that she'll have a blast....I sent the camera with her, so hopefully I'll have some cute photos to share with ya tomorrow...and yes, she is going alone...or rather..going with a group of friends, which will be way more fun I'm sure.
