daddy daughter dance 2010

Gene has been taking his girls to the annual Valentine's Daddy-Daughter Dance for 5 years now. You can check out the first one in 2006 here (when Sarah was only 5 years old). Also, check out the dances in 2007, 2008 & 2009. Next year Morgan will get to join them.

We started the afternoon by getting the girls new dresses for the special occasion, followed by curling their hair and painting their nails, etc. This year I had to put a little makeup on Sarah due to a sibling rivalry they had the day before (that left Sarah with a cut under her left eye that she was very self-conscious about). When Gene got home they all went straight to the dance and danced, ate cookies, played games, got balloons...Gene and Emma even took a Waltz class together. Awww. Then, per tradition, they went out to IHOP after the dance. I love that they all have this little tradition that they look forward to every year!


Sarah, Gene and Emma before the daddy-daughter dance.

Sarah looking soo grown up--wtfreak? (that little blond patch under her eye is a liquid bandaid w/ cover up on it).

Emma's curly hair (she loves it when I do it like this).
