This Saturday brought the highlight of the under 10's social calendar with the 9th annual school Father and Daughter Dance. I've seen enough 80's Brat Pack cinema to know how important the High School Prom is, but I hadn't realised things started in KG. On the theme of Hollywood, red carpet, corsages and all, nearly 200 little starlets and their rather less excited 'beaus' gathered for an evening of dancing, popcorn, fizzy drinks, cakes and a chocolate fountain. I imagine it would have been quieter at a Beatles concert. The evening was captured by the official photographer, but not before G had made an attempt to wear much of the chocolate fountain, and you will have to wait a while for the portraits to come through. I'm sure every self-respecting a-lister knows that taking 2 dates to the same event is fraught with danger, but you never see Gwyneth crying over spilt chocolate do you? The evening was rounded off by two sugar-fuelled exhausted little darlings deciding to scrape the snow off the MINI with their newly acquired 'Oscar' trophies. The scratches may polish out, but by then I'd kind of lost my sense of humour and screaming 'you're only supposed to blow the bloody snow off' resulted in just more salty water on the garage floor. Ah the life of an Elementary school starlet is not an easy one.....
PS good job V on hanging the silver stars on the gym walls - now we know what you were doing all morning.
