My Prom Night in Eau Claire

So as I am sure you have read in previous blogs (if anyone reads them...) that I was asked to prom by my friend Jake Sutton... or as I like to call him... Billy. So after several months of waiting and getting ready for prom the time was finally here. Here is how my Saturday went.. I woke up at ohh I would say 10:30 am. and I woke up to Jake texting me, so I decided I should probably get up. So I got up and got ready and left my house at about 11:25 (a little later than I wanted to leave…) and I traveled up to Oakdale where my mother and prom date Jake’s mom had a meeting with several other Ladies in Relief Society. And so I rode down to Eau Claire with Mindy (Jake’s mama) and grand mother and another lady from his ward. Once we got to the house we see Jake and Bob and Jake’s Grandpa working on the car. So we got out say hello to everyone and I brought all of my stuff inside. Mindy and I had to run some quick errands and while we were out we got food for Jake and Bob and Mindy and I. So we went back to the house and ate then the real fun began… We got started on the hair. It did not take as long as I thought it would so that was a relief to me. And I sat very still for the whole hour it took to do my hair, and for those of you who know me… that never happens. And so after the hair was done Mindy polished the acrylics Sarah put on my fingers a couple days ago. When that was done I decided to do my make up and I think I did pretty well at doing my make up all by myself… I think I’m growing up. Once I was done doing my make up we had about 15 minutes till my family was going to be arriving to take pictures so I went and changed. And Mindy had to help me zip up my dress and then I put on my jewelry and slipped on my Cinderella shoes and went up stairs. Now it was time to wait. About 5 minutes later my family pulled up with a little addition to our little family. And that would be baby Nate who really isn’t a baby anymore, but I am so used to calling him that. About 5 minutes after that Scott and Mi Mor came and the real fun began. LOTS OF ENDLESS PICTURES!!!!!!! Eventually we got away from the Sutton’s and went to Scott’s house for appetizers then back to the Sutton’s for steak and potatoes… yummmmm. Then off to the dance after a quick stop at Jake’s brother Jim’s house to say hi. The dance was at a beautiful garden place. After the dance we went to David and Collette Staples’ house for a bonfire and to watch a movie being projected on the side of their shed. Well the bonfire wouldn’t start so we just watched the movie. After we got to cold Jake and I left and went back to his house, and finished watching Enchanted and watched License to wed after that. Then that ended the night of prom.
