Senior Prom 2014

Alex and Cassidy Taylor went to Prom together on Saturday, April 26th .  I think they made a striking couple!  They had a nice time.  Alex left around 4pm to pick her up for pictures.  I met them at the marina where we got pictures and then they left from there for dinner and the rest.  Afterwards, they went to After Prom, which is a school sponsored "safe party" where they have lots of games and prizes.  Alex won some cool headphones.  The After Prom didn't finish until 5am (and no one was allowed to leave before that), so Alex didn't get home until after 5am!  It made for a long date, but I think he had a good time!

This was funny!  One of the boys had seen a picture where guys had their hands in pockets and he really wanted figure out this pose, but no one could figure out where to put their hands and it was a little awkward.  Finally one of the girls came and arranged all the their hands in the right pockets and we got the picture.  The girl then had to brag that she got to touch each of their butts while she was arranging the hands.

I thought the picture turned out kind of cute in the end.

After Prom went from 12-5am after the dance

I volunteered to help from 11:30-2:30am.  This was the game that I was in charge of.  It was muffin tins glued to a table.  Some of the individual cups were painted colors.  There were three whiffle ball type balls, and each person got three chances to get a ball in a colored cup.  It was pretty hard.  Only once did someone get all 3 in a colored cup during my 3 hour shift.  They got a ticket for the raffle for each ball that made it in the colored cup.  It was a very exhausting game to man because I was chasing balls the entire time.  I was SO sweaty and exhausted by the end of my shift, but I was glad I did it.  It was fun to see what After Prom was like and also be there to support Alex and his school.

Alex & his date look so cute together! You took a ton of great pictures. I am jealous that the day of their prom was sunny & warm. Corey's prom was cold, rainy & windy..of course..what else do you expect from Western Washington?? Glad he had a good time :)
