Prom!

Senior year is not complete without prom, which is why I went! Shelly, my friend Bailey, and I decided to go as friends to prom this year. We had a fun filled night which consisted of painting our nails, going out to dinner at Olive Garden, and having a great time at the dance. The dance this year was at the Portland Art Museum. It was in a huge ballroom! Complete with balloons and an actual red carpet. It was definitely a night that I will always remember.

I got this dress at Abby’s Closet in Portland where they give away free second hand dresses. Of course I was able to find one and I loved it! We wanted sleeves on it and to fix the bottom because the bunching wasn’t right, so we went to a seamstress in my ward to fix it. It turned out great! It fit perfectly, it’s modest, and it’s comfortable. I also got the perfect shoes at Burlington Coat Factory. $14.99! I say that’s a good deal!

I went to a girl in my ward to do my hair. She did an AMAZING job! It looked great and she even put sparkles in my hair!

This corsage is not real. My mom and I went to Michaels and got the flowers I wanted and we hot glued everything. It wasn’t difficult and it turned out great!

Thanks Mom, Dad, Paul, Rhonda, Shelly, and Bailey for a great night!

18?!?

Wow! Its been 18 years? I can’t believe it! Time has flown by so quickly! For my 18th birthday my mom and I took my two friends to Saturday Market and to Voodoo Doughnut. Since it was my first time going to either one it was a very fun experience. Very creepy and weird but very fun. For the first time in months we finally got blue skies and sun! What a great day to go to Saturday Market on my birthday! We hit all the shops we wanted to go to and on the way, we bought fun and exciting things.

We were able to sit at the water front for our delicious doughnuts. 

This was one of the most fun things to do. The cartoonist did such a good job cartooning our faces!

We all wore Toms that day!

After our exciting but exhausting day, we came back home for pizza and one of my favorite movies “Leap Year”. Hana, my other really good friend, was able to come over for the movie.

These are the things I got at Saturday Market.

This dress was a perfect dress for Easter Sunday! It’s kind of weird that I got a dress from Saturday Market, but I love it anyway!

Thank you to those four people who made my birthday a special day!
