Senior Prom

The Senior year festivities are picking up speed as the end of the year gets closer. As a parent of a senior student, I was obligated to volunteer during after-prom and can't believe how much fun I had!

I roped my poor, unsuspecting sister into volunteering with me so that I would have company as I tried to stay vertical from 11:00 p.m. until 3:00 a.m. Now this was no easy feat! We were in charge of the Dance Central Xbox game. So. Much. Fun! As soon as Angie and I arrived, we immediately tested out the game and, sure enough, it proved that I have no rhythm. Who cares, I was having fun AND burning calories. And besides, this was the LATEST I had been awake in a long long time!

Meg's date was another swimmer and she enjoyed the evening with her dearest friends. Best of all, one of her friends' parents sprung for the Prom Van (yep, their family minivan) complete with decorations on the inside. So much more fun than a stuffy (and super expensive) limosine.

Disney Race Report - Part II

Disney's Happily Ever After Party at Hollywood Studios was a wonderful experience enjoyed by all four of us. We saw a great performance of Beauty and the Beast Live. Belle was my princess and was identified on my race bib. We also saw a live performance of The Little Mermaid. Greg and Megan got to ride the Aerosmith roller coaster without the lines. Meg and Bridget got to meet and pose with their favorite characters. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and one of the best family vacations yet!
