Second post- Mariposa's dress for homecoming (Saturday)

Mariposa's first dance in the US is tonight. She is attending the homecoming dance at my nephew's school. The corsage- Uncle Darrell did a great job picking this one out.

My incredible "daughter".

Jason and Mariposa. I would have bought him a purple tie if I had known he did not have one- but they are a cute couple of kids no matter what they are wearing

This morning, we were supposed to meet up with another group of students and go shopping- OK the teens were going shopping and Bug and I were supposed to make ourselves scarce so that the teens could hang out.

not a single friend showed up- we waited at the designated place for 30 minutes. I felt so bad for Mariposa- she was so disappointed. We decided that since we drove to the other side of town, we would go ahead and shop for a while. She got her pair of chucks- converse all stars that she has been looking for for a month.

I found a picture studio that has a moto for Bug. I think we will back here for formal pictures in the near future.

After the mall- I was still feeling sad due to how disappointed Mariposa was, so I took the kids to see FAME. Mariposa loved, Bug was bored. he told us half way thru the movie that he wanted to go home. it was a long second half of the movie- I think I saw 2/3 of the last half of the movie.

I am off to rest- Mariposa is not due home until almost midnight.

Love to you,

Deb
