Daddy Daughter*

 
This is one of those things that I started thinking about when I found out I was expecting a girl.

A few weeks ago, I was in the kitchen, and Dustin was in the living room going through the 10 pounds of papers that had accompanied Eliza's backpack home that day. All of a sudden, he let out a squeal to rival any teenage girl. A paper had come home informing us of the upcoming Daddy Daughter dance. Awww...

We all anxiously waited for the day to come and finally it arrived! I meant to actually make Eliza a new dress, but alas, this will just be one more thing that I chock up to "I didn't have to do that" list.  (Everyone should start one of those lists, and add to it frequently.) 

They had a great night, she got to wear makeup, he got her a corsage and ice cream.  Well done, Daddy.

Here's a little home video, you can just see how excited she is!

Aww. That is so cute. My husband took our daughters on daddy daughter date last year (7and9 years old). It was very memorable. I got beautiful picture and the cutest pictures of my 5 year old with a big sheepish, pouty lip (He is not a pouter). I got to stay home with him (:
