Snow and Prom

 It snowed early Saturday morning. 


Just enough snow to cover the grass...it quickly melted but it was still a cool day.

I attended the virtual baby shower in the afternoon, it was fun to see my nephew and his wife.  We played some games...Name the Disney parents, Name that baby song, guess who and guess the price. There were people attending from all over the United States. 

Then we got company.  It is Prom!  


My other baby brothers grand...or our Great Niece Hailey and her beau.  Her dress even had pockets!  She was just beautiful! 


My Parents and Hailey and her beau.

What did we do before Zoom and FaceTime? Oh that's right we were able to see people in person. I think there are wonderful uses for it rgiht howl

Absolutely love that they included you and your parents in their prom photos. It shows what great kids they are! Your niece looks so nice in her classy dress. Not over the top like so many wear these days.

She is beautiful and her dress is gorgeous, too. So glad you all got to visit with her and take pics! It's a bit of normal again.

A prom dress with pockets! Genius! And what a handsome couple. The virtual baby shower sounds like a lot of fun and the photo with your parents is priceless.

The virtual baby shower sounds like fun! I bet she loved your gifts, especially the beautiful blanket. How nice that your niece and her boyfriend came out to see you before prom. She is a beautiful girl and I love the picture with your parents!

Hailey is gorgeous and I loved her dress....yes, as others said "classy"! I love the pockets too! Designers finally got the hint! How nice that they had their picture taken with your parents too. It seems like just yesterday that I went to prom and I made my own dress...couldn't afford to buy one and my parents wouldn't. It turned out great with some help from one of my teachers wives (I went to a boarding school) and I had a great time and great memories. I hope Hailey and her beau have the same!

Isn't it great to be able to see family and friends again? Your niece looked lovely, such a pretty dress... and with pockets... score! We aren't totally back to normal, but we're getting there! Have a great week.

What a lovely photo with your parents, Hailey and friend. It will be a keepsake she'll look back on later in life and appreciate.

Sounds the virtual baby shower went very well. Oh the times we live in.

We're learning how to do many things virtually. Had a virtual funeral the other day.

What great pics of Hailey and her beau! Had to be a cold evening for Prom though. I don't think it phases young people much. :) Love the pic of your parents with the promsters too! Tonight we're supposed to get an inch of snow or sleet. Tomorrow I have an MRI. Will put off laundry day until Tuesday I guess. Thanks for a great blog!

No prom for our graduating granddaughter. This is the second year of no proms.
Your Great niece and her beau make a cute couple.

Jacqi Stevens said...

What a lovely prom picture--and such a wonderful way to capture the moment with Hailey's great-grandparents, as well. What a treasure.

Val Ewing said...

Wow that photo of your folk with the kids is great. Your dad is very tall! We had rain/sleet/and yuck yesterday and then a pleasant evening! Go figure on the weather.

Galla Creek said...

Loved getting to see your elders with the youngsters.

Linda Reeder said...

I like that prom dress too. Very classic and classy.
That is a precious photo, one to keep in the archives.

I have been looking at all the prom pictures of my home town of Murray, Iowa and the neighboring town of Osceola. Seeing how they dress is interesting. I guess my old school where I taught also had a few shots.
