Our elementary school hosts an
Annual Father & Daughter Dance,
and this year was the first year that all our daughters could attend!
Unfortunately,
we couldn't make it.
{sad}
So to make up for missing out,
we created special invites for both the girls AND boys
inviting them to spend an evening with mom & dad.
The girls were delighted to receive THIS invitation
which instructed them to dress in semi-formal attire for this
"grand occasion"
which included dinner & the theater.
Look at all my pretty faces!
That's more like it!
Owen was convinced his invite would be better,
and of course,
when we opened the front door,
there it was waiting for him!
{truth be told}
With all the excitement of getting the girls ready for their date.
I had forgotten to create the boys invite!
When Owen started peeking out the window,
I quickly realized he was waiting for his "special delivery".
Luckily,
he's easily distracted,
giving me a few minutes to steal some time
on the computer to print one out!
Whew!
Gabriel,
definitely less inclined to be impressed
with something as non-edible as a formal invite.
Popcorn!
Now I'm speaking his language!
My sweet, sweet boy.
Just like on real dates,
things can start out so well...
...and then take a nose dive!
Bummer!
My date landed himself on time-out!
If I didn't already know him,
this would have made a horrible first impression!
Lucky for me,
he straightened up,
and a good thing too!
It's time to eat!
While Samuel opted for the menu-friendly Spaghetti Factory,
we went for a noodle of a different sort:
Pad Thai!
Noodles.
An absolute favorite with these two.
Granted,
we need to work on our date-worthy dining skills...
Thank goodness we've got time to practice.
The question is:
How did Samuel fare with his noodles?
