Prom!!

Remember THIS post?! Well prom was April 12th and it was a blast!

The day started out rocky though, which always seems to be the case when we have a date night or someone watching the kids for whatever reason. Which is hardly at all as it is. 

My friend and I were looking for places to do our hair and in the midst of that, I have a whiny preschooler and a fussy infant who wanted nothing but to be attached to my boob all day. 

So we finally have a hair appointment at Great Clips. I went in optimistically. Hoping and thinking the stylist would be good enough to have a vision and make me look like a million bucks... (I know, big task) So I get this lovely lady, G. Bless her heart. She tried! She worked hard on a hairstyle that was nice but did absolutely nothing for me in anyway shape or form. I felt like a 80 year old woman with a 5 year old hair cut. It just wasn't happening. But, being the kind-hearted person I am, I wasn't going to say anything. As I stood there talking to my friend and her stylist (who also happens to be my friend) another stylist over heard me mentioning how I hate my hair. So when I went to pay, G, informed me that another stylist would be doing my style again. 

So fast forward. The stylist did great. It was a nice style but something I classify as an everyday style. It was honestly just about how I style everyday. I figured it wouldn't cost much so I went with it knowing I would go home and spruce it up and make prom worthy. 

Then I paid $40 for it... That's when things started going sour. 

I was pretty upset. It was anything but a formal style. By the time I even made it halfway home, it totally fell flat. I just wasted 2 hours and $40 on this hair style that I could have done at home for nothing and would have taken me 10 minutes to do. 

So once we got home, I took a fast shower and restyled it to salvage our night. It wasn't very
"prom-y" but I didn't feel like a total loser, so it was a win-win in my book.

Finally we got dressed and headed out to take the kids tn the sitters. 

Prom itself was awesome. The night completely turned aroun and we all had a blast. The guys even danced!

After prom we hit up Applebee's and made a waitresses night and ended the entire night in a great mood!

Bailey only had 2 meltdowns at the sitters and actually took 4oz of milk! She hasn't taken milk for anyone other than daddy once. So that was exciting to hear! Everyone survived and Ben and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary with a bang!

It is now September and we still haven't received our "official" prom pictures, so here's a few from the night and if I ever receive the one taken at prom, I will add that as well.

Until next time, friends
