Prom 2013

There are so many benefits to homeschooling… but missing prom is probably not one of them.  I was super happy when #2 was asked to go to prom with one of his best friends.  Here's their day…

He's not heavy he's my best friend.

Here in Ottawa Kansas they have a little prom tradition called prom walk in.  There's a red carpet.. the whole town shows up to watch..  it's pretty cool.

Many try to find the coolest ride to roll into prom walk in.

We like to think #3 had the coolest ride.  His uncle owns a repo company… and he let him borrow his truck and car.

The boys rode in front, and the girls rode in the car.. on the hook.
