The Belle of the Ball



Today was Hannahs prom. She was excited and all, but was having the usual money issues. The biggest issue was how she could afford the necessary updo. I offered to help pay for some... but other needs like pictures and such still weighed on her. We made a bunch of phone calls and finally settled for a late appointment for $30.00.


We headed to the YMCA to work out so Hannah could feel skinny and beautiful for the big event. There at the Y was a sign that said "Prom Pampering," with an arrow. We looked at each other in an odd and slightly hopeful way and followed the arrow to a room where teen girls were having face massages, manicures, pedicures, hair.. make up.. the whole shablam. NMU's cosmetology school holds the event as a community service each year. The cost? $5.00


THAT fit nicely into Hannahs budget! She got the whole service... hair, nails, and make up! See for yourself:











She was dazzling!!!!!!


What a Beauty!

Hannah,

You look gorgeous!!! I loved your dress too.
I hope you had a great time at senior prom. It's a night you'll never forget.

Great price for the "spa treatment" too.

Joni,

First of all, way to go Hannah!

Second, I'm sorry I've been out of commentland lately. Are you sure you figured the labels out? Is it too late to answer your question?

Basically the labels are for when people do searches. But you can also tag them in such a way that someone can click on them and find each time on your own blog when you dealt with a certain topic.

For example, on our church blog I use labels like "Books," "Christian Growth," etc. But I also use labels that might help someone to find the site if they do a search for something specific such as "Chuck Smith's Nose" (if I happened to post on that subject).

Wow! What an awesome blessing! Good thing she wanted to go to the Y before hand!
And she looks stunning. The dress looks great! And I'm sure going to the Y before hand helped her lose that 1 pound that made it fit better! ha.
