Prom

So this year it's Charlee's prom.  Chelsie had her prom 2 years ago and despite sorting her car and there being a few hiccups with people agreeing to pay and then not wanting to etc it all went very smoothly.  Chelsie choose her dress from ebay....it was one that was made in china and shipped over.  It was a very pretty, pale blue one that looked quite similar to wedding dress in the photos where you couldn't see it was a baby blue colour.  The car they had was a 1950's gorgeous pink Cadillac. It was a stunning car.

Now with Charlee there has been nothing but hassle with the car.  I said I didn't want to organise it as I had the baby and there was a large group of them originally so plenty of parents to sort it.  But due to arguments and disputes the group got smaller and smaller until there is now just Charlee and her date Jake (not her boyfriend).  The car she is now going in is a friends.  The friend Tracy is also a hairdresser so she's doing her hair as well.  We ordered her dress for her yesterday.  She had an orthodontist appointment so before she went we sat here looking on the web.  Despite the fact she appears to eat her own body weight in chocolate every day (cadburys should sponsor her) she is still a size 6-8.   She didn't want the traditional big dress...so her dress is a Lipsy one that is fitting and quite short.  She also goes a lovely colour when the sun is out so with a tan and some killer heels she'll look stunning and very likely a lot older than 16.  Mind you if I had her figure now I'd probably want to wear something nice and tight.....though some of my clothes are quite tight....but sadly that's due to the expanding waist size and not because they're meant to be.
