first dance

Paige has looked forward to this night in anticipation for 2 weeks, every since the school passed out flyers highlighting tonight's dance. Her first official dance. Tonight she gleefully stopped in the middle of afternoon play to get herself properly beautiful for the event. She took a shower and got herself into her beautiful dress, and her mommy helped her get her hair curled just right for the special event - with her daddy.

The school is having a daddy-daughter dance and her daddy wanted to make it special. He rang the doorbell and presented her with flowers. They paused to allow mommy to take a few pictures and off they went to grab a quick bite before the dance. Earlier this week, Todd asked her if she wanted to go anywhere special for dinner. She thought briefly and then spelled out W-E-N-D-Y-S. She's taking him for all he's got tonight.



UPDATE:
They returned home after staying the entire dance. Wendy's was not on the menu tonight. He asked her if she would rather go to a nice sit down restaurant. 'Sure' she said. They went to Native New Yorker... Nothing but the best for his date. They danced every dance together and with her friends and their daddys. He did honor her request to NOT do his signature move at the dance - for those that know Todd, it's the stand-in-one-place-and-point-and-move-your-gun-fingers move (very similar to the Wiggles moves). Really hot. It's how he won me over. She did, however, allow him to do his moves in the parking lot. You're never to young to feel a little embarrassed by your daddy.

She came home without her tights (it was hot), with wet hair (been raining all night), and tired - but was all smiles and happy to talk all about her fabulous date night.
