Last week was, as they say, off the chain. I had cheer clinics and tryouts which took up ALL my free time. By Wednesday, Rozzie texted me and asked, "Are you coming home today?" Sadly, the answer was, "No." We survived it, though. Now it is the girls' turn to tryout for the dance team this coming week. But before tryouts, there is the banquet. It was a lovely evening with lovely kids.

And then there was Prom! Rozzie went with her small group of friends. They got a limo and went to dinner at PF Chang. McCall did her hair and makeup. You might recognize the dress from the pageant, so now she has 2 wears out of it!! We met at the park in Green Cove Springs. You can see the spring right behind them that runs into the St. Johns River which is further in the background.

As you can see, Rozzie's friend Chelsea is back to "normal". She returned to school this past week. Her tumor was benign. And she was able to go to Prom!! She has been, we all have been, greatly blessed. She is on a lot of medications and will continue to have many doctor appointments throughout the year. She is happy to be doing normal things.
Travis and I always enjoy going to the Prom. Travis is very good to sit at a table with shoes and purses. I check in with him regularly. It is fun to get dressed up. We went to dinner with the dance coach and her husband, Ali and Stu.

Rozzie's closest friends hamming it up. I tried to ignore Rozzie at the Prom. However, I wanted a few pictures. She was irritated when I asked them to take a picture. Then they got to posing and we had to cut it off at 5.

Rozzie went to Lauren's house with her friends to spend the night. Then they went to Lauren's grandparent's lake house where they spent the day jet skiing, sunbathing, eating, and having fun! Now it's time to get serious and finish out the school year strong. We have AP exams coming up, EOC (end of course) exams for Maddie in Algebra and Biology. And I just have to tolerate my seniors for another month!!

OOOoooooo loverly (which I said lots on fb)! I'm glad to hear that Chelsea is doing fine. What a scary thing for her and her family to go through. I love that Roz used her dress again. It's such a preeeetty dress and so cute on her. Rozzie's parents are gorgeous as well! What fun, what fun!
I was barred from posting any pictures of anyone who might have gone to Prom from our family and I am sad. At least Roz put up with you taking pictures of her.
Everyone looks so wonderful all dressed up! You and Travis looked so stylish--right out of a Hollywood magazine! What a fun thing to do to go to Prom with your girls! I laughed at your comment about the picture taking. My kids have always done that same thing--then when the pictures get posted, they always love them!
Everyone looks so beautiful! And good for Roz for putting that dress to use again. It looks like it was a wonderful night.
Hey Travis!!! Your voicebox is looking good, you must be recovering well.
The photos are so fun! AP exams driving me batty! When are you out of school? We don't get out until the 19th of June.. we are SO burnt out! Then its marching season again... *dies*
