6th Annual Father & Daughter Prom

Last Saturday, April 4th, was the Y's Father & Daughter Prom. We again set a record for the most attendees, with 117! I am so happy that even in these economic times, we had such a great turn-out. It really is a very special time to celebrate a very special bond. We had an oriental theme this year, which made it very easy to decorate and come up with giveaways, etc. This year we did t's for the dads & daughters, chopsticks and fortune cookies were attached with ribbon to the daughter's t's. I have to give shout-outs to my staff to making it such a success:

K-My trusty sidekick (that's what everyone at the Y calls her) who helps me do everything! She helped me roll t's and attach goodies until 8pm Friday night, and decorated for 3 hours Saturday afternoon and still really weren't finished, but we had to leave to get dressed! She always knows exactly what to do and when to do it! I would be TOTALLY lost without her.
Felix & Brittany-Fi Fi knows how to work-it and Britt Britt knows how to laugh at it! Even when I was having a total meltdown b/c the music wasn't working; they snapped into action greeting people, giving them their t's and making sure they got their pictures taken. *Shew* a load off-when you've got one major probably to worry about!
*Best of all they all three know how to deal with my temper when things aren't going according to plan! Thanks Guys!
Candi-Not on my staff, but my #1 dawg when it comes to pics! She's been taking photos of the daddy's and lil' ladies for three years now and they love them! This year she had to be a calming influence and give a little technical support in trying to figure out what the music problem was. So if you ever need a photographer/computer guru all rolled into one...you know who to call!

Of course my own personal favorite Daddy & Daughter team was in attendance. Izzy was the center of attention even in the midst of all those other cuties! She was shakin' it and those little girls were lovin' it! They all wanted to dance with her and of course the dad's thought she was hilarious. I attached the 2 pics I was able to catch!
