I love the movie Pretty in Pink, do you? It was a great teen movie about trying to find where you fit in and love....because what would a teen movie be without love! Andie (Molly Ringwold) visits her friend Iona (Annie Potts) and mentions she might not go to the prom. Iona tells her:
I have this girlfriend who didn't go to hers, and every once in a while, she gets this really terrible feeling--you know, like something is missing. She checks her purse, and then she checks her keys. She counts her kids, she goes crazy, and then she realizes that nothing is missing. She decided it was side effects from skipping the prom.
As a teen, I was worried this might be true. As an adult, I can tell you it doesn't matter! Of course now that I think about that, my overexcitement (is that a word?) when my boys attend Prom (or Homecoming, Winter Formals, Morp....anything really) and the need to photograph it until my camera begs for mercy could be a side effect from not attending my own Prom.
Oh well! On to the photos!!!

This was a fun group to attend the East Valley Mormon Prom with.
I love seeing all the girls dressed up and giving their own personal flair to what they wore.
Handsome young men!
Fun!
Such a great group of kids.
Rachel asked them to jump over their dates. Only one did.
And when he landed, he kicked up a tons of rocks on his date!
Time to head off into the sunset
